what are some cool ideas for a dog party?
my boyfriend is having a bday BBQ and since we have a big fenced in yard, we told all our friends to bring their doggies too. so far, we have a kiddie pool, 2 sand boxes, a cake from three-dog-bakery.....but we wanted to know if you guys had any cool ideas for games, raffles, and other fun stuff? what are good toys to put in the sandbox and pool? should we hide treats in the sandbox or is that a no-no? this is new to us....as you can tell. lol.
You don't want sandy treats! You can hide toys in the sandbox, and have a game for which dog digs out the most! You're going to want them to be partially visible too.
Also, you can have the dogs "bob for hotdogs" Not whole ones, but cut up pieces. You can do this in the kiddie pool.
You could have a "sit contest". (see who stays!)
Not to rain a little on the parade, but you should make sure all dogs are up-to-date on their vaccinations, or they shouldn't come!

You should do a raffle for a dog prize like a cool toy for example. Also u should do a dog race!
About the treats in the sandbox… they shouldn’t be buried too deep. Or else dogs could get sand in their noses, ears, or eyes.

WOW SO COOL =)
you could have a dog raffle but insted of people buying the tickets with money buy them with dog treats =) and get some dog prizes such as a ball and treat pack or sumthing. what a cool idea .

Tennis balls….See if you can get names or something stamped onto them.
I wouldn’t hide edible things in the sand box since sand can be abrasive to teeth and doesn’t taste so good.
You can also get boxes and hide toys (rope toys, tennis balls, squeaky toys) and treats in them. Make sure you keep an eye on the dogs so everyone gets a toy/treat and they don’t fight. Have contests for fastest to get a ball or cutest wader. Make sure there is constant access to fresh drinking water.
Most importantly, have fun.

I don’t think treats in the sand box would be a good idea, because with several dogs around some fights could break out over the treats. I think it would be great to set up a donation box for the humane society or an animal rescue, etc. Also, I would be careful having so many dogs over unless you know them and know they are friendly. A fun idea might be dog/owner relay races or a trick contest where owners can show off their dogs’ skills. I love the kiddie pool idea. Good luck and have fun!!

do not hide treats in the sand your dog will eat the sand.hide them on the patio , if not found the ants will take it.make the sandbox smell of interesting but nontoxic things.throw plastic toys in the pool.supervise each station at all times.

you could have a raffle for a basket filled with fun stuff for the dog to do, and little treats. Play fetch with the dogs. Also say a trick like sit and see whose dog can do it first and the best.
