FOR ALL AGES
At Kidadl we pride ourselves on offering families original ideas to make the most of time spent together at home or out and about, wherever you are in the world. We strive to recommend the very best things that are suggested by our community and are things we would do ourselves - our aim is to be the trusted friend to parents.
We try our very best, but cannot guarantee perfection. We will always aim to give you accurate information at the date of publication - however, information does change, so it’s important you do your own research, double-check and make the decision that is right for your family.
Kidadl provides inspiration to entertain and educate your children. We recognise that not all activities and ideas are appropriate and suitable for all children and families or in all circumstances. Our recommended activities are based on age but these are a guide. We recommend that these ideas are used as inspiration, that ideas are undertaken with appropriate adult supervision, and that each adult uses their own discretion and knowledge of their children to consider the safety and suitability.
Kidadl cannot accept liability for the execution of these ideas, and parental supervision is advised at all times, as safety is paramount. Anyone using the information provided by Kidadl does so at their own risk and we can not accept liability if things go wrong.
This day is celebrated all across the United States.
The American Kennel Club and its affiliates celebrate this day.
This day first started on September 17, 2003.
The American Kennel Club started celebrating this day.
People have owned dogs for eons. Here is a peep into the history of this association.
In 2003, the American Kennel Club began hosting the Responsible Dog Ownership Day on an annual basis. Besides hosting a flagship event, this organization and its affiliates host events that include educational booths, health clinics, pet insurance, and more such pet care activities.
This day reminds you to refresh on your pup's needs pertaining to vaccinations, novel grooming ways, nutrition, and training requirements.
You can attend the events hosted by the American Kennel Club (AKC) or its affiliates to show your dedication to being a responsible dog owner. We understand that during these times of the pandemic, you may not be able to attend such events in person, you can connect through virtual updates about such events.
Have some fun while being a responsible dog owner. Watch a dog-centric movie such as 'Marley and Me' with your canine companion by your side.
Responsible pet ownership means that you take care of your pet's upkeep and love it as a parent would love his child. Moreover, being a responsible dog owner also spans the financial means to take care of your dog's needs and requirements.
Giving your dog timely and proper feeding, training it, taking it to veterinary clinics for vaccinations and check-ups, and allowing your dog to mingle with other doggies or pets forms the biggest responsibility of owning a dog.
The American Kennel Club (AKC) hosts an event in Raleigh, North Carolina, every year. However, dog owners need to register their pets with this organization to gain maximum benefits. Otherwise, dog owners won't come to know about useful information and associated events such as those hosted by the American Kennel Club or its affiliates.
Celebrating this day reminds pet owners to focus on the health and well-being of their pets. Besides, pet owners can connect with like-minded pet owners and share concerns as well as knowledge with them. Moreover, celebrating this day strengthens the human-canine bond.
