Easter Traditions to Start with Your Dog

Easter isn’t just for chocolate bunnies and pastel-colored eggs—it's also a great excuse to include your pup in the fun! Whether you're celebrating with family or keeping things low-key, here are some adorable (and totally doable) Easter traditions to start with your dog this year:

1. Host a Doggy Easter Egg Hunt

Turn your backyard or living room into a sniff-worthy wonderland by hiding plastic eggs filled with dog treats. Invite a few pup pals over and turn it into a full-on Easter paw-ty!

• Use large, dog-safe eggs that won’t break easily

• Fill them with strong-smelling goodies like freeze-dried meat or peanut butter biscuits

• Supervise your pup during the hunt so they don’t chew the plastic

2. Dress Up for a Mini Photo Shoot

Nothing says Easter like bunny ears and pastel bandanas.Set up a spring-themed backdrop with flowers, baskets, and colorful eggs. Snap some adorable pics of your dog all dressed up and share the cuteness on social!

3. Make a Special Easter Brunch (Dog Edition)

While you’re enjoying your festive meal, whip up something special for your pup too.

• Scrambled eggs with a sprinkle of parsley

• Carrot & apple pupcakes

• Frozen yogurt bites with blueberries

4. Create an Easter Basket for Your Dog

Surprise your pup with their very own basket! Wrap it in colorful paper and watch your dog light up as they dig through their goodies.

• New toys (bonus points for squeaky bunnies!)

• Homemade treats or biscuits

• A fresh collar or bandana

• A spring-themed chew toy

5. Go on a Spring Sniffari

Celebrate the season with a long walk in nature. Let your pup take the lead and explore all the fresh scents of spring. Bring a picnic blanket and make it a mini adventure.

Start Small, Celebrate Big

Traditions don’t have to be grand to be meaningful. Whether it’s a photo, a treat, or a simple walk in the sunshine, these moments become special memories. So go ahead—add a little wag to your Easter celebration this year.
