What is Every Dog Day?

Every Dog Day is a day to proclaim that every type of dog deserves love equally, rather than call out one breed or another as though it needed to be defended. Get Your Pet is inviting everyone to join the conversation and celebrate Every Dog Day with a contest in which they share a photo of their dog on social media and tell the world why they’re the best dog, regardless of their breed.

Our Story

In the past, Get Your Pet has participated in celebrating days like ‘National Pit Bull Awareness Day,’ which is meant to bring awareness to the misconceptions, stereotypes, and stigmas surrounding dogs under the ‘Pit Bull’ label. But, we realized that, in advocating for specific breeds, our well-meaning efforts might actually be contributing to the problem – unintentionally perpetuating the idea that Pit Bull type dogs are different from other dogs. Thus, we conceived Every Dog Day. Initiating Every Dog Day is another way to advocate for all dogs and help end the stigmas unfairly imposed on breeds like Pit Bull type dogs.

Congratulations to this year’s winner, Topaz!

Topaz’s Story

Topaz proves every day that your past does not define you. Topaz’s mother was seized from a dog fighting situation, while pregnant with Topaz and her siblings. Born to two champion fighting dogs, Topaz had the odds stacked against her, yet she is the most loving and patient dog. She has helped raise countless foster puppies and kittens. She’s taught them to trust, love, and most importantly have fun! She shatters stereotypes and proves the power of love – both the love given to her and the love she gives to every creature she meets.

As this year’s winner, Topaz will be receiving a $250 doggy gift card, courtesy of Pet Valu!

About Get Your Pet

Get Your Pet is the online community that connects people who need to rehome with people looking to adopt a pet like theirs. Animal shelters and pet rescues do wonderful work, but the current, shelter-based system for pet adoption is in crisis, and it needs our help. Get Your Pet is a simple, smart and humane way to keep pets out of shelters, one that also increases shelters’ ability to care for the homeless and abused animals that need them most.
