Why is there a national dog day?
Promoting this day aims to increase public awareness of the adoption of animals that are now housed in rescue facilities. Promote the ownership of dogs of all breeds, both pure and mixed, on this day as well.

History of National Dog Day
Every year on August 26, National Dog Day is observed. Colleen Paige, a champion of the pet and family lifestyle, chose that date because it was when her family first brought their dog home when she was ten years old.
