A scenic hike to soak up the fresh air and sunshine
A trip to a dog-friendly café or restaurant
A visit to a local dog park for socializing and playtime
Wherever you go, pack some extra treats and plenty of water to keep your pup happy and hydrated!
3. Host a Dog Mom Brunch
Gather your fellow dog moms and their pups for a celebration! A backyard brunch with dog-friendly snacks, cute decorations, and maybe even a mini photo booth is a great way to make memories. Serve pup-cakes for the dogs and mimosas for the humans—cheers to being the best dog moms around!
4. Spoil Your Pup with a New Collar or Toy
National Dog Mom’s Day is the perfect excuse to splurge on your pup. A new stylish collar, a comfy harness, or a fun new toy will have them wagging their tail in excitement. Check out our latest Lucy & Co. collections for the cutest, trendiest accessories for your fur baby.

6. Give Back to Other Pups in Need
One of the best ways to celebrate being a dog mom is by spreading love. Consider donating to a local shelter, volunteering your time, or even fostering a dog in need. It’s a beautiful way to honor the joy our pups bring us by helping others find their forever homes.
7. Capture the Moment with a Dog Mom Photoshoot
Celebrate your special bond with a mini photoshoot! Whether you hire a photographer or simply snap some cute selfies, documenting the love between you and your pup makes for wonderful keepsakes. Bonus points if you share your adorable pics on social media with #NationalDogMomsDay!
