Valentine’s, a day to celebrate St. Valentine who went against Emporer Claudius II and married young lovers in secret. Today it is a day to celebrate those you love - both human and hound alike.

Add the look of love to your walls with a print of this “Soulful” painting from artist Xan Blackburn. Or give the gift that keeps on giving by contributing to the Quilt for a Cure. 100% of the proceeds go to Hope for Hounds, a charity that raises money for the research by Dr. Couto of Ohio State University. Dr. Couto is a leading researcher in canine osteosarcoma. Now that’s a gift that will make your heart beat proud!

Add some spice to your hound’s life with a heart shaped Apple Cinnamon or Cherry Honey Vanilla Burpdog Cake. Or you can spice up your own life at the same time with dog shaped chocolate (for humans!) from Simply Treats.

For playtime, your savvy hound would love these heartshaped stuffies inspired by Sweetheart treats (Shown above) from West Paw Design.

Have a heart….charm, that is! With these fun engrave-able collar tags from 2 Hounds Design. These charms serve dual purposes, fun decoration for your hounds’ collars while still providing contact info in case your hound is ever lost.

Share with us, how do YOU celebrate V-day with the hounds in your life?
