Are you ready to celebrate Mother’s Day on Sunday, May 8th with your mom? The tradition of Mother’s Day dates back to the early 20th century where Woodrow Wilson signed a proclamation designating the special day as a national holiday on the second Sunday in May. With that said, you have some time to prepare for the special day and Healthy Hound Playgound has a few great gifting ideas for every pet mom out there. Read on to get some fantastic ideas to celebrate Mother’s Day!
Doggy Day Care
Everyone absolutely loves their dog and your mom would appreciate the gift of dog day care in Chantilly, VA. By treating your mom’s dog to day care service, you’ll give her a day where she can drop off her pooch to get exercise, socialization with others and regular potty breaks so she won’t have to worry about a thing. You’ll be surprised at how much she will enjoy the gift because it’s unique and will show her you really put some thought into her gift.
Visit Reston Town Center
When your mom takes advantage of the doggy day care service, take her to visit the Reston Town Center for some pampering and shopping. Start the day by taking her to Salon Nordine & Day Spa for the ultimate massage and facial. After the appointment when she’s feeling rejuvenated, take her out to one of the many restaurants around the center. Following a tasty meal, take mom to all the shops for some retail therapy!
Personalized Gift Basket
Another great gift idea for all the dog mom’s out there is a personalized gift basket that’s filled with all kinds of goodies. For instance, you can create a personalized coffee mug with a picture of her favorite pooch on the mug. You can also add some car decals to the basket that say “Dog Mom” and a license plate holder that says the same thing. Additionally, you can get her a dog mom tee shirt to make the basket complete.
Jewelry
Jewelry always makes for a great Mother’s Day gift and if you get your mom a Pandora bracelet, you can order special dog charms that can be attached to the bracelet. Also, you can find some necklaces online where the pendent is in the shape of a dog or paw print.
Dog-Embroidered Comfort
Depending on the breed of dog your mom has, you may be able to find dog-embroidered comforts like duvet covers, pillowcases, shams and sheets that feature cute dogs all over! It just takes a quick online search and you’ll be able to find exactly what you are looking for. You can also consider some throw pillows that have dog themes like paw prints and dog bones.
Are you ready to celebrate Mother’s Day on May 8th? Give the gift of doggy day care so your mom can have the day to relax and unwind!
