Oktoberfest already has plenty going for it: beer, pretzels, loud music and at least one person getting suspiciously committed to the lederhosen. But if you’re a dog person, there’s an obvious upgrade. Bring the dogs. A dog-friendly Oktoberfest doesn’t have to be a regular party with a few dogs wandering around. Make the dogs part […]
National Dog Week is September 20–26, which feels like a perfectly reasonable excuse to celebrate something dog people already do every day: talk about their dog far too much. And honestly, we’re not apologizing. Because living with a dog comes with a very specific set of experiences that don’t need explaining to other dog people. […]
There’s a moment every September when you realize summer has officially lost the argument. You grab a sweater. Your coffee order gets hotter. Your dog suddenly wants to spend three hours outside instead of melting into the floor after five minutes. Finally, everyone can enjoy a walk without negotiating with the weather. For dog people, […]
The best thing about a three-day weekend? You don’t have to do very much with it. Labor Day weekend arrives with all the usual suggestions: road trips, crowded restaurants, packed events, complicated itineraries that somehow require a spreadsheet. Your dog has a simpler proposal. Go outside. Eat something. Take a nap. Repeat. Honestly, we’re listening. […]
Some weekends are filled with plans. The best ones are filled with coffee, slow walks, and a dog who reminds you that you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be. Sundays Have a Funny Way of Changing Once You Have a Dog Before you had a dog, Sundays probably looked a little different. You’d promise yourself […]

Because every dog park has its regulars, and sooner or later, you become one of them. Dogs Make Friends Instantly. Humans Just Need an Icebreaker. There’s something wonderfully predictable about a dog park. Dogs introduce themselves in seconds. Humans take a little longer. It usually starts with a simple question. “How old is she?” “What […]
Because the best nights don’t need reservations. Just a happy dog, a great glass of wine, and nowhere else to be.
Let’s talk about that person whose entire personality is beer and dogs. You know the one. Their weekend plans are literally just “dog park, then brewery.” Their phone storage is maxed out from photos of their pup photobombing every beer they’ve ever had. They’ve named their dog something like Stella or Porter and think it’s […]
You know the guy. He’s at the brewery with a leash looped around his chair leg. His camera roll is basically a shrine to his dog. He gets genuinely excited about both new IPAs and the fact that his pup finally learned to high-five. Finding gifts for men who love dogs means celebrating that sweet […]
