  1. Love this list! Always to happy to help raise awareness about caring for our pets – and celebrating them on their special days. Love that clip of Nili playing, looks like she’s having a great time!

    • Hindy the list is important as it reminds us of the awareness days plus special days to celebrate them. Nili loves playing in the park and she comes home tired and hungry LOL. It is so healthy for her.

  2. Oh, wow, so many. Unfortunately, such things are not for me–we can’t even remember our wedding anniversary :p

    The only reason we remembered our anniversary of being together was because it was Cookie’s birthday.

    So I guess, the next dog we adopt better has the same birthday as our anniversary. LOL

  3. It looks like a great playtime with your buddies. Thanks for all the holidays, it’s fun to have something to celebrate each day.

  4. I was just thinking that I needed the pet holidays for March. Perfect timing! This is always so helpful. Thank you for publishing this list every month. I really appreciate it. Henry says you and Nili need cookies. Although, I’d recommend you have a piece of chocolate instead of Nili treats, but I guess that’s up to you BOL!!!!

    • Terri I love doing this list each month as it is so important for us to keep our pets safe and celebrate also. It is my pleasure sharing with everyone. Nili woofs lots of cookies for Henry and Mom nothing BOL

  5. Thank you for always doing these lists! Pinning to share! Would you be able to add March 26 Purple Day®️ for Epilepsy for awareness for dogs, pets, and humans? Thank you SO much! I love the video of Miss Nili having so much fun! Too cute!

    • Hi Dorothy and thanks for reminding me, I am going to do it now. I am happy you loved the video when she plays as it gives me so much happiness watching her her enjoy life
