Puppy First Birthday Party Ideas

by Partyelf on March 5, 2010

Puppies are probably one of the first animal noises our little ones made, as well as the first animal they fell in love with. So, to celebrate their big day, a Puppy First Birthday party is definitely in order.

You can make cute invitations by cutting brown cardstock into the shape of a dog’s head and, out of the same color, little ears that are attached with glue or brads. Add some eyes, a big triangle-shaped nose, and a goofy smile and you have an adorable puppy invitation. Or, if not feeling crafty, buy some charming pre-made ones. In fact, you can purchase matching party supplies, too.

Have the squirming toddlers don their cone hats before starting fun games like:

  • Puppy Bone Hunt: hide dog bones (made from construction paper) and let the kids find them
  • Ruff, Ruff, Meow: just like Duck, Duck, Goose!
  • Hide & Seek: but they are all little puppies hiding before their bath
  • Fetch: throw the ball, sit back, and let your little toddler bring it back to you…. Ok, this one is just a lazy sort of game for the parents, but it is still entertaining!

Feed the party goers little dog treats (ie: finger foods) like crackers, cheese cubes, puppy-shaped sandwiches, and cut up fruit and veggies. It will be a lip-smacking meal.

Your new “one year old” and friends will have a doggone good time at their Puppy First Birthday Party. You can find all of these great party supplies on our Puppies First Birthday Party Supplies page.
