October 18: National Fetch Day

Because Every Dog Deserves Their Day to Play

If you’ve ever tossed a ball and watched your pup take off like a rocket, ears flopping, tail wagging, you already know: fetch isn’t just a game, it’s pure joy. That’s why the third Saturday in October is officially National Fetch Day, a celebration of one of the best dog-and-human bonding activities out there.


Why Fetch Is More Than Just Fun

Fetch isn’t just a way to burn off that “zoomie energy.” It’s exercise, mental stimulation, and bonding all rolled into one. Whether your pup is a natural retriever or needs a little encouragement, fetch builds trust, keeps them healthy, and brings out their inner goofball.

Plus, let’s be real — nothing beats that look of pride when they trot back with the ball (or… stick… or random shoe).


How to Celebrate National Fetch Day

  • Grab your dog’s favorite ball or toy and head to the park.

  • Try something new...frisbees, squeaky toys, or even a soft rope can make the game fresh and exciting.

  • Make it a playdate. Invite fellow dog parents for a group fetch session.

  • Stay prepared. The 2 Fur Doodie Poop Saddle keeps your hands free for fetch while handling those “other” dog duties with ease.


A Reminder About Safety

Not every pup is fetch-obsessed, and that’s okay! Always use safe, dog-friendly toys, and remember to give your furry friend plenty of water breaks. For senior dogs or specially-abled pups, a slower game with short tosses can still bring tons of joy.


At 2 Fur Doodie, we believe play is one of the best ways to strengthen the bond between dogs and their people. On National Fetch Day, grab a ball, head outside, and celebrate the pure happiness of a simple game that never gets old.

Because fetch isn’t just about throwing and retrieving, it’s about laughter, love, and making memories with your best friend.
