Valentine’s Day




How did Valentine’s Day start? It’s a fixed day Valentine's Day is a fixed day on the calendar that got lumped into a mid-February holiday on the ancient Roman calendar called Lupercalia—which some historians believe is what led to Valentine's Day being all about love.

National Hot Breakfast Month

Is breakfast the most important meal of the day? Yes! Many seems to believe so. Have that hot bowl of cereal tomorrow morning or mid-day.

National Hot Breakfast Month was established to encourage people to get up and start their day with a meal that’s a bit more substantial than a simple bowl of cereal.





Dog Training Education Month

 

ACTIVITIES

Go to a dog training class

Training a dog alone sounds exhausting - don't do it alone! Find a dog training class or activity in your city.

Teach your dog a new skill

The 'training' part of this month, see how well your dog is trained by teaching a new trick or skill. Maybe you'll learn something new about your pup - what it likes or doesn't like.

Check out a new dog park.

Visit a new dog park around town and let your pup off the leash. Most dog parks don't require a leash as long as they are within the gated vicinity, and it's a great spot to let your dog run around while you catch up on emails or read a new book. It's a win- win!

Doggy wants a treat

Treats can help with dog trick training - and what dog doesn't want a treat?

Teach your furry friend a new trick to flaunt to the rest of the dogs in your hood.

A friendly dog is a good dog

The only thing worse than a poorly trained dog running around, is the number of them that end up in the pound for bad behavior. Investing the time to properly train your dog, is investing time into a 'good' dog long term.

How I Found My Monster Kittens [The New Three Little Kittens] Good read for ages 2-8. By Olexity Starr What a cute, funny story tale with some rhyming connections, its colorful simple yet interesting enough to keep a child listening. The monster kittens are not really monsters looking, but cute - that went outside to play alone without letting the boy in the story know. There is a good lesson to learn not to go out doors or anywhere without informing someone an adult, friend, or neighbor.  A good quick read for younger children.
