Dog birthday parties are the latest trend in pet ownership. It was recently reported that over 70,000 pets in the United States have had a birthday party thrown for them by their owners, and this "pet party trend" has taken off in other countries as well, including China, Japan, and England.

According to the American Veterinarian Medical Association, there are 73 million dogs owned in the United States, and 74% of dog owners consider their pet as a child and/or family member, so this trend of dog birthday parties is expected to grow.
