Furry fun for Family Day!

by | General Pet Care |

Whatever your plans are this Family Day, your furry friend would probably love to be a part of it! To help you out, here’s a list of activities that will be fun for everyone in your family – furry or otherwise. 

Enjoying the great outdoors 

When all the family is together, a great activity is heading outside! There are so many activities your furry friend would love to take part in outside: hiking, going for a walk, tobogganing, bird watching… and the list goes on! Keep an eye on your furry friend to make sure they aren’t getting too cold. Take the cool test to help determine when you should bring them inside. It’s also important to know the signs of hypothermia and seek veterinary assistance right away if they occur. 

Cuddling up for a movie 

If the outdoors isn’t what your family’s after on their day off, then why not throw on a fun movie! There are plenty of great animal movies to watch for a cuddle-up kind of day. 

Training 

Another great indoor activity is training! With the family all together, this can be a great time to train your furry friend or teach them some new tricks. Visit our blog for plenty of training tips and tricks!  

Games and enrichment 

Games can be a great form of enrichment for your furry family member! Don’t know what to do? Lucky for you, we’ve compiled a list of indoor activities for your pets during the winter months.  

Whatever you end up doing to mark the occasion, the Ontario SPCA and Humane Society wishes you a fun and safe Family Day!
