OK All You Dog Lovers Just For YOU, Today is Walking The Dog Day,

Walking the DogEvery February 22nd is “Walking the Dog Day”.  This is a first for me and I would bet it is for a lot of folks out there.  So mark your calendar for next year.

Walking the Dog Day is a special day that your dog looks forward to all year long. Wait a cotton pickin’ minute.....
....Don't you walk your dog just about every day? Sure you do!  Walking the Dog
Well maybe not in Minnesota or Alaska, and, weather permitting, it’s enjoyable for you and your dog.  Well I guess a Husky wouldn’t mind the cold weather.  In that case they could take you for a walk.

On this day walking with your dog is a must. If you don't have a dog, you could borrow one or perhaps you could join a friend while he or she walks their dog.

As a side note, "Walking the Dog" is also a yo-yo trick. So, if you have a Yo-Yo, you can celebrate the day by "walking the dog" with your yo-yo.  If you are a yo-yo junkie or you can remember back in the day then you do not need any instructions BUT, for those of you that have never done the trick here is a how-to video……

I know it's not the same as playing with your Yo Yo, but you could also take a shelter dog for a walk.

Michael,

There seems to be more days with multiple things than those with just one thing to celebrate.

Hi Don - What percentage of this generation knows about walking the dog with a yo-yo.  Better yet how many have ever played with a real yo-yo.  Unless it is an "app" it is unknown:(

Conrad,

Very good point sir.  When we were much younger I think there was a yo-yo on every hand or in every pocket.  I never left home without mine even to school.
