Ready to run wild at the best dog parties of the year? Clear you calendar for National Fetch Day — the ideal time to celebrate all the fun of playing Fetch with your dog! This year Petmate’s once again sponsoring National Fetch Day parties at more than two dozen locations around the country — from San Diego to Boston — and all points in between. This amazing nationwide event takes place each year on the third Saturday in October. This year it’s October 17.
What does a National Fetch Day party look like? Well, start with lots of running and chasing, add a mixture of playing and barking, and you’ll get the picture. Basically it’s a doggie dream come true. And you get a chance to exercise and make new friends too!
As far as the list of dog games go, they don’t get much easier (or more fun) than “Fetch.” And Petmate, the brand behind hundreds of pet toys and supplies for dogs, cats, birds, and more, has the perfect National Fetch Day accessory: the wildly popular Chuckit! Launcher. Let’s be honest — we’re not all professional baseball players. Fortunately, Chuckit!, marking its 21st anniversary this month, enables us to throw balls two or three times farther with ease.
Everyone wins. Our dogs get extra exercise and we can play for as long as they want.
“This special day is a celebration of the human-animal bond, an opportunity to bring awareness to the importance of exercise for our pets, and how the game of fetch offers both,” says Petmate Executive Vice President Chris Wilson. “It’s the day to get outside and ‘Make Fetch Happen.'”
The Chuckit! Launcher, featuring an ergonomic handle for ultimate comfort and control, also provides a convenient hands-free pickup — meaning you no longer have to bend over to retrieve those slobbery tennis balls.
