Having a dog theme party can be done in two different ways. A dog theme party can be for your dog's birthday with his dog friends and dog decorations. The other style can be any birthday or celebration party with a dog theme. Getting your guests to come will require a bone invitation. If your guests will be dogs, include a real small dog bone for enticement. Party supply stores have specialty bone shaped invitations, plates, napkins and party favors. If your party is host to humans, a dog or bone shaped pi ata can add to the festivities. Some human games include pin the collar on the dog or pin the bone in the dog's mouth. Both require a blindfold and are played exactly how pin the tail on the donkey is played - closest "pinner" ? to the correct spot wins. For added ambience, play songs with dog in the title or song. Make a game of it and see who can name the most songs with or about dogs. Another game could be to write the most TV or movie dogs down in a minute. The winner gets a copy of Old Yeller or something related. You can also have a barking contest! The person with the best bark wins a treat. Dog games can include the basic fetch, Frisbee and shaking hands. If the owners are feeling festive, you could set up a mini-course and run through it. The best dog/owner course runner wins free dog food. Personalized favors could include dog bowls or collars for canine guests. And of course dog bones or tennis balls work as other prizes. A dog theme party can be a fun thing for any age person - as long as they love dogs! A party planning specialist can also help and organize your event if you require assistance. Have a dog gone good time! |
