Enjoying Football Season With Your Dog
Fall is one of our favorite times of year in Houston. Cooler weather, plus the start of football season! Whether you follow college football or professional football, your dog can be part of your football enjoyment. And they can dress to support your favorite team!
Three Ways to Watch Football with Your Dog.
We’ve come up with 3 ways to enjoy watching football with your dog, and the dos and don’ts of each.
- Watching Football at Home With Your dog
The best bet for your dog? Stay home to watch the football game. You can have your best friend cuddle on the couch with you and enjoy every minute.
- Football Watching Parties
If you’re more the sociable type, maybe you are having a football-watching party at home with the gang. If your dog gets nervous around people, leave them secured in another room. But if they enjoy a crowd, let them join the fun. Avoid leaving food at dog level. Make sure your friends know what your dog is allowed to have (veggies, deboned chicken, pizza crust) and what he’s not allowed to have (sour cream dip that ends up on your carpet in 2 hours.)
- Tailgating with Your Dog
For some, the ultimate football season event is the before game (or after-game) tailgating. If you bring your dog with you, please don’t leave him or her in your car during the game. That can be dangerous!
Also, keep your dog on-leash and monitor them at all times, or have a strong recall. Make sure they are wearing dog tags and watch out for people’s discarded chicken wing bones.
