Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. Do you have someone in your life who deserves to spend this special day being loved, appreciated, pampered, and rubbed? Oh, did I forget to mention that I’m not talking about people? This article is dedicated to all the pet parents out there.
An organization called, TripsWithPets surveyed a group of 200 pet parents to find out how they are planning to celebrate their love for their pets this Valentine’s Day. Here are the top 5 activities they found.
- “Sweet” Treats
The most popular way pet parents plan to spoil their furry valentine this Valentine’s Day is to visit a doggie bakery. What pooch doesn’t love to sniff all the glorious bakery smells? And then gets to sample delectable morsels of love – like a heart-shaped peanut butter cookie with icing on top! It doesn’t get much better than this.
- The Great Outdoors
For those with active pets, more than 20% of surveyed pet parents plan to head out to enjoy some pet-loving outdoor activities. These include long walks, hikes in the woods, and romps at the beach – or in the snow!
- Weekend Retreat
Fifteen percent of pet parents plan to pack up their pooch and get away for the weekend. Most are planning to head to pet-friendly destinations where there are plenty of activities for their pup. They prefer to stay at pet-friendly accommodations that pamper both people and their pets.
- Dinner for Three
Ten percent of respondents plan to pack up their pooch and head out to a pet-friendly restaurant to celebrate Valentine’s Day. Most restaurants with outdoor seating areas welcome furkids. Some even offer special doggie menus, or at least doggie water bowls.
- Binge Watch
For those pets (and their people) who prefer to chillax and unwind on this special day. Snuggling up with their favorite couch potato and binge-watching some movies are what’s on the docket!
