Mother's Day Plan for Dog Lovers

Mom loves her precious puppy, so show her what a great Doggie Mama and Human Mommy she is to her loved ones.

Biscuits for Breakfast

Rise and shine with your favorite pup and begin Mother's Day with a bang. Whip up a delicious biscuit breakfast that both you and Fido will enjoy.

Follow breakfast with a long, leisurely morning walk before beginning your Mother's Day pampering.

Get Groomed

After breakfast and a nice walk, prepare for the day of pampering. Put on comfy clothing and make a grooming appointment for your pup. This will give you the day off and also provides a safe place for your dog to hang out while you treat yourself to some Mother's Day pampering: your own trip to the salon.

Busy dog moms can get so caught up in caring for their pups that they let their own grooming fall by the wayside. Mother's Day is the perfect excuse to give back to yourself and indulge in a haircut, color or blow-dry. Doing little things to make yourself feel great will leave you rejuvenated and ready to take on the world with your pooch.

Mommy Massage

Fur baby moms love cuddling with their dogs, but many pooches take up all the room on the couch or bed, leaving their moms scrunched up in an uncomfortable ball. Sore necks and lower back pain are common complaints from falling asleep in awkward positions, requiring some serious massage work to eliminate the kinks.

Schedule a massage at an affordable local spa. Many spas are running specials on massages and other treatments to encourage business in a slow economy. Take advantage of the slow business by booking a bargain treat for yourself. Once your muscles are nice and loose, you can let Fido or Fifi cuddle up to you again for a nice long nap.

Doggie Day Trip

Spend the afternoon taking a doggie day trip with another doting dog mom. Set your sights on a nearby beach, lake or meadow and pack plenty of water, food and magazines. You and your human friend can spend some quality girl time on Mother's Day while your pooches will have a blast exploring the great outdoors. It's the perfect end to a leisurely Mother's Day for both mommy and dog.
