Fall is here. The leaves are turning and the air is crisp. Gourds and cornucopia arrangements are starting pop up in houses. Time to celebrate the end of the year with your pet.
Rake the Leaves
Raking leaves doesn't have to be a dull fall chore. Rake them into a big pile and jump in them with your dog. Human children will be delighted too.
Visit a Pumpkin Patch
Due to their outdoor nature, many pumpkin patches will allow you to bring your dog with if he or she is well-behaved and is on a leash. Let your dog sniff out a pumpkin and bring it home.
Carving Pumpkins
After visiting the pumpkin patch, bring it home and carve it with your pup. Use him or her as a model. If you're artistically gifted, free hand your dog with a marker before carving. Otherwise, print out a picture and tape it to the side of your pumpkin and make an outline by poking holes into the pumpkin's skin with a knife.
