Not familiar with National Dog Day? It’s been around since 2004 and is celebrated annually on August 26 -- right at the end of "the dog days” of summer!

Not a dog person? Maybe you'd rather celebrate National Cat Day. Just hang on for a couple of months, not quite till Halloween. October 29 is the holiday that's the cat's meow! (And let's see if National Harbor will let you take your cat for a ride on the Capital Wheel!)
