Are you guiltily of pampering your pooch more than your loved one? We are all guilty of giving our four-legged friends a little extra loving… but who can blame us, they are just too cute! As February 14th approaches, skip the stress of dinner reservations and overpriced flowers and show your pup some “puppy love”.

Sometimes just saying “I woof you” isn’t enough! So, what can you do with your dog this Valentine's Day? Here are 5 ways to show your pet a little extra love:

Bath time can be a little chaotic so choose a calming scent like lavender or mint for the ultimate relaxing spa-like treatment.
