International Dog Day: A ‘paw-fect’ day to celebrate your furry friends

Twitter is going all out in celebrating International Dog Day.

Mondays can be extremely difficult. However, if you love dogs, this Monday can be salvaged. August 26 is observed as International Dog Day - a ‘paw-fect’ day to celebrate your furry friends. This day is all about showering your pet pooches with love, spending extra cuddle-time with them and giving them lots of treats - in short a regular day for those with dogs, just slightly more special.
