Pet Sympathy on National Dog Day


On August 26 every year, pet lovers in the United States celebrate National Dog Day, an unofficial observance honoring man’s best friend. According to the Humane Society, Americans own 78.2 million dogs and nearly half of all households have a dog.

Americans spend an estimated $50 billion a year on their pets—expenditures which include vet visits, food, toys, bedding, treats, necessities, and indulgences like Halloween costumes, hats, custom outfits, and grooming/salon visits.

Brand name companies are following the trend, offering high-end pet products. More hotels are pet friendly. Cutting edge technologies like owner/pet interaction apps and software, streaming TV for dogs and cats, and ID microchips grow increasingly common. Whether mutt or purebred, there’s no denying we love our dogs.

Dogs are a member of the family. When a beloved and cherished pet passes on, the loss is heart breaking. Pet Sympathy cards from Greeting Card Universe offer comfort to grieving owners with messages of sincere condolence, while Pet Remembrance cards give reassurance that the loss hasn’t been forgotten.

What are People Saying About Greeting Card Universe?
“I was very pleased with the card I chose from your company! It was so unique, and unlike anything I could find in any card store. The option of adding my own photo made it so personal. I know my daughter will love it! And the best part was the price, which was so reasonable, compared to the astronomical prices I saw on other websites! The prompt delivery time was also much appreciated. I will definitely be ordering from your company in the future. Thank you so much!”- Kathy, August 23, 2013
