24-Hour Dog Day Challenge
As Lilly and I began our holiday time off, we issued a challenge to our readers and fans via Facebook to spend one solid day (24 straight hours) with their dogs. Yes, in many cases, that means sleeping or cuddling a lot, but we’d love to know what else you did on your dog day.
Our dog days vary depending upon weather. For example, over the holidays a boatload of snow fell in our valley. The storms included cold temps and wind. We did indeed sled a lot one day, Alas, when the temps finally warmed up after xmas, the winds went wild with, seriously, 100 mile-per-hour gusts for several days.
We’re hearty girls around here, but not that hearty.
So, our dog days include various activities, along with all the napping and smooching the dogs can stand:
- Eating meals from food delivery toys
- Playing fetch (either outside or in the house)
- Playing tug-of-war
- Stuffing toys with pieces of fruit or vegetables
- Taking walks up the mountain and back
- Just sitting on our hill, looking around
- Doing a little dog massage or grooming
Did you take on our 24-Hour Dog Day Challenge? If so, how’d it go? What did you and your dog(s) do?
