It's National Puppy Day: Call for Photos
March 23 is National Puppy Day. Share your photos and we'll put together a Patch Pets gallery.
At Patch, we love puppies every day, but especially today – National Puppy Day.
The observance got its start in 2006 to celebrate not only the “magic and unconditional love” that puppies offer, but also to spread awareness about puppy mills, according to founder Colleen Paige, an author and celebrity pet and home lifestyle expert.
