March 23 is National Puppy Day! Established in 2006, it’s a special day for dog lovers to celebrate the unconditional love of puppies and admire the adorable little furballs that bring so much joy into the world. While we can’t resist their cuteness, the day also aims to raise awareness about puppy mills and encourage potential pet owners to consider adopting instead of buying.
