Great dog party games!

A party isn't a party without great dog games! 

There are all kinds of games you can play at your pup's party. We've just listed a few...and many games can be modified just for your celebration!

• Hot Dog Dunk - For each dog, take a hot dog (preferably all natural) and cut into 10 slices. Throw them in a kiddie pool and see how long it takes the dog to eat them. Fastest dog wins!
  
  Water Relay - At the start line (with dog on leash) the dog parent fills a small cup, races with the dog to the finish line to fill a larger cup. Continue until the big cup is full.Dog Painting - This is one of my favorites! I did a dog painting at my Gotcha Day party. Mix together corn starch, flour, water and food coloring (safe for dogs) to desired consistency and color. Put paint on dog's paws with a sponge, put them on paper and let them go at it!
  
  Snoopy Says - Guests form a line with their dog and play a variation of the game Simon Says with their dogs. You give commands like sit, Simon says sit, Simon says down your dog, etc. -- last dog 'standing' wins!
  
  Agility! - Yep, it's my favorite thing in the entire world! You can get inexpensive agility equipment at JohannTheDog.com; or make your own. Set up a small agility course and have the dogs and 'handlers' take turns!
  
  Musical Mats - With a radio or cd player, place one less number of mats around the floor as dogs participating.
  The music starts, then is stopped. All dogs go to their mat and lie down. The dog without a mat is out. Then take away another mat, and repeat until their is only one dog remaining!
  
  Frisbee - see which team (human and pup) can throw and catch the furthest!
  
  Simon Says - With humans and their dogs. Humans form a circle with their dogs while someone gives the Simon commands. The humans walk around in a circle when the command is given. The last team to do the trick, is out! Last dog in, wins!
