Take a Walk in the Water Park
If you have a water-loving pup, invite their friends over for a “pool” party! Even if you don’t have a swimming pool, set up a sprinkler and an inflatable kiddie pool and let the dogs splash to their hearts’ content.
Hold a Costume Contest
Blow Some Bubbles
Give all of your guests a bottle of bubbles to blow, or set up an automatic bubble machine. Fill the yard with bubbles and let your dogs go crazy chasing them! It’s a low-cost dog birthday party idea that will guarantee your pups have a blast.
Relax at a Puppy Spa Day
Did you know that some dogs enjoy a massage just like people do? Host a spa-themed party and give your dog a massage — it can help increase circulation and decrease anxiety for your pup.
What pup doesn’t love a new dog toy? This cake-shaped stuffie is both festive and fun.
Build an Obstacle Course
What’s a party without games? For a backyard bash, try making a doggy obstacle course with children’s play tunnels to run in and a hula hoop to jump through. If you’re feeling adventurous with some DIY, you can even use PVC pipe to make weave poles for dogs to run between.
You can’t have a birthday without birthday cake! This kit provides everything you need to make a dog-friendly cake: A reusable mold, cake and frosting mix and a birthday candle. All you have to do is cook it in the microwave, and voila!
Have Buckets of Fun
If your dog loves to chase balls, collect a bucket of tennis balls and find somewhere with a hard surface. Drop all the balls at once so they bounce everywhere and watch your dog go nuts trying to catch them all!
Bake Homemade Dog Treats
For a fun change of pace, try making your own dog treats as a special gift! You get the peace of mind of knowing every ingredient that goes into them, and your dog will love their special birthday snack.

Serve Dog-Friendly Scoops
Set Out Themed Snacks
The people at your party will need something to eat, too! Try themed (human) food like these adorable pug cupcakes, hot dogs, puppy chow or brownies shaped like bones.
Do a Birthday Bandana Swap
Why not have a bandana party? Have everyone bring a bandana and do a swap, or set out some DIY supplies for people to make or decorate their own. Provide scissors, fun fabrics and craft supplies like paint or ribbon to decorate them.
Make or order a “bark”-cuterie board of different dog treats, like biscuits and blueberries. Let your dog sniff around and choose which treats they want to eat. Make your own matching charcuterie board with meats and cheeses for your guests.
If you usually feed your dog kibble, try preparing a lick mat for their special day. Fill it with treats like peanut butter, canned pumpkin or lightly scrambled egg. It gives them both mental stimulation and a delicious meal — a win-win!
