Are you thinking of making a furry addition to your family? Do you know someone else who’s expanding their family in the canine capacity? Why not throw a Puppy shower?

It’s a great way to show your support for people who have decided to adopt a dog and save a life. Unlike a baby shower, it doesn’t have to be all about gifts, but it is a fun way to introduce the pup to their new extended family and friends. Instead of gifts, we recommend games!

There are lots of traditional baby shower games to draw on, and they take only some minor tweaking to make them suitable for puppy showers. Here are some ideas to get you started.

A puppy shower isn’t just a chance to celebrate a new puppy. It’s also a chance to help with puppy’s early socialization training. Getting a dog used to new people and pets at a young age will help prevent aggression and anxiety later in life.

While a puppy shower isn’t a substitute for behavioral training, it can help your dog practice their lessons from puppy school.
