National Dog Day

By Amanda Jelinek ZimmVet Dog Daycare and Pet Hotel Reception Staff

National Dog Day is here! What a great reason to celebrate your beloved pet.

National Dog Day helps us realize what a huge part dogs take in our lives.  This is a great time to take a moment to celebrate and appreciate all of the things your family pet does for you!

Dogs can do so many amazing different things for us.  They have been used for years to help with therapy in nursing homes, hospitals, and day to day living.  By using dogs for therapy, stress, and anxiety management, it can help improve things like our blood pressure, mental health and general daily stressors. So whether you’re hunting, traveling or just relaxing at home after a long day at work, your dog will always enjoy being right by your side.

There are so many wonderful companions just waiting for their forever homes. So the next time you’re looking to add a new family member, make sure to check out your local shelter to find your perfect match.
