October is Adopt a Dog Month!

October is such a busy month-Halloween and Breast Cancer Awareness Month.. many things going on with you and your family and many events; parties and social activities; but you can make a huge difference in the month of October - in the life of a Dog.

If adopting a dog is something that you and your family have been discussing and talking about and you certainly can be in the beginning stages of talking about it, but speed up the talk - October is certainly a good time to adopt a dog. October is Adopt a Dog Month and we all know that there are too many dogs sitting in shelters and on the streets homeless; so - instead of "giving the dog a bone; give the dog a home".

Every October, the American Humane Association side by side with many of your local animal shelters throughout the United States support and promote Adopt-A-Dog Month.

Many of us have many reasons for wanting a dog; a dog for an elderly family member, just a companion to hang out with, or is the pup going to be for the kids? This is the perfect time to figure out if adopting a dog is the right thing to do.

Swanky Pooch Pawtique encourages you; for whatever reason to check into becoming a shelter dog owner. Remember that there are millions of dogs in need of loving homes. Dogs in every size, shape and personality and it's time to meet them by visiting your local shelter.

Visit the American Human Society for more information on Adopt a Dog Month and check out Swanky Pooch Pawtique's great line of dog clothing, dog carriers, dog bowls and a full line and variety of dog leashes and dog collars. There are many dog gifts you can get your new adopted dog to make him feel at home when you shop at Swanky Pooch Pawtique.

The Enjoy Boxed Decorated Dog Treats would be a great little dog treat for the new pup or maybe you got a puppy - we have the Fuzzball of Joy decorated dog treats in blue or pink. It's a Girl decorated boxed treats are one of our best selling dog treats at Swanky Pooch Pawtique.

Whatever the month of October brings for you and your family; please think about adopting a dog this month; you won't regret it and if you hurry you could get him a Dog Halloween costume just in time for the fun night!
