Wanna come to my Party?
What's the best way to celebrate a birthday? Set up a great party, of course. However, if it's going to be for your dog, the mechanics will be a little bit different. If you have no idea where to begin or how exactly to do it, here are some tips for you:
1. Choose your Guest List. If you're thinking of inviting other dogs, then you'll need to invite their owners too. Knowing how many are going to attend will give you an idea how much money you have to set aside for the party. Also, you will need to think carefully about the behavior of the dogs you plan to invite, as you don't want to mix dogs with poor social skills. You don't want to turn the event into a complete disaster.
2. Choose your Venue. You can use your own back yard if it is fenced and large enough, or if you prefer, inside your own home. Don't want your party outside? Don't want 20 dogs running through your own home? Best Friends has the PERFECT solution! We have a large indoor, (available on weekends only) climate controled room at our facility that is great for party times! Best Friends can also provide you with tables, chairs, lambs woolies for the pets to rest on, water bowls and our dedicated staff can even help you plan the party. Call 317-841-8182 for more information and room/party rates.
3 . Prepare and send out invitations. When you've decided on the venue, time, and guest list, you're now ready to send out invitations. There are actually dog party organizers who can help you with the designing and sending of invites, as well as with the organizing of the occasion. But if you think you have the skills to do so, you can just use any free templates from the internet and add your own personal touch.
4. Determine the kinds of activities you're going to do on his birthday. All food and no play can still make a birthday party a little boring. That's why you need to come up with a list of activities that will liven up the occasion. Now, since it's not just going to be dogs that will be around, it would be great if you can plan out games that would be fun for both the pet owners and the small dogs. Relay games are great examples, since dogs love to run and compete with the others.
5. Doggy Bags and Prizes. What's a game without a prize? To keep everyone motivated and always on their feet, tease them with great goodies and prizes. Dog toys are a favourite. Dog owners, on the other hand, may receive leashes or harnesses with a small message from the celebrant printed on them.
Lastly, don't forget the cake. There are specialty dog bakeries who can create delicious-tasting layered cakes for your pets. Cap the entire occasion with a blowing of an edible beef flavoured candle.

Pupperware Party Success
We held our first ever Pupperware Party on Saturday September 19th and I am happy to say it was a howling success! We had a few new people come in, those who had driven by many times but never stopped. We even welcomed many friends that we have known for a long time. All came in to take advantage of our 50% off sale, enjoy some cookies (for puppies and humans alike) and do some shopping. We sold everything from leashes and collars, to toys and treats. Not to bark up our own tree over this one, but we sold several hundred dollars worth of items. I do believe this will become a bi-annual event here now. Several customers were the lucky winners of our door prize drawings too! If you weren't here when we made a draw, we mailed it to you, so watch your mail, it might have been YOU!
As with any first time party, we waited with beef baited breath to see how well it would be received. I have many ideas for our next Pupperware Party to make it even more fun. After all, what's a Pupperware Party without a game or two thrown in? Watch for it come March 2010!
