Dogs are beloved members of our families, so it’s no secret we enjoy including them in holiday festivities. And making our pups feel extra special doesn’t require extravagant presents: making delicious homemade treats or spending extra snuggle time are great ways to show our appreciation. Here are five simple ways you can spoil your pooch during this year’s holidays.
Homemade Dog Treats Although it can be tempting to give our pups some of what we eat, many human snacks can cause stomach issues for them.
