2. Paint & Pawcasso

You need some plastic bags and a spreadable treat that dogs will enjoy, such as peanut butter. Next, spread the peanut butter on the outside of the plastic bags, place paint on the canvas, and seal it inside the plastic bags. Place the bag on the floor in front of your dogs and let the art inspiration flow! The best painter wins Evolve Jerky Bites.

4. Water Bark/ Waterpark
Nothing beats the heat on a summer day like a trip to the water park and why should your fur-baby miss out on the fun? Create a “Backyard Water Bark” for your dog and their pals!

Dogs can also cool off by running through a sprinkler zone with a simple DYI obstacle course. You can find simple agility course ideas here. If you aren’t against your dog digging, use a sandbox as a beach treasure hunt. All you need for the sandbox is some small toys and Evolve treats to bury so that your fur-baby can find them. Your four-legged buddy will know it’s not a normal summer day once they see all the fun attractions set up just for them!
5. Puppy Photo Shoot
This puppy pawty idea can help bring out the Vogue in your fur-baby. There are several things you can do to set-up a photo shoot for your pooch. All you need is a festive backdrop, silly props, and anything else that your dog is willing to wear for pictures. You can also hire a local photographer to take fancy headshots and action shots of your doggie with their friends. This type of party would require paying a photographer so you might request a cover charge at the door.
