Feb23 Fun Holiday – International Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day
February 23 is Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day. Show your appreciation for your furry canine friends by spoiling them with their favorite dog biscuits.
Dog biscuits, or dog bread as they were known then, have been part of human-canine history since Roman times.
Bad Bread
For a large part of history, dog bread was considered bad, low-quality bread unfit for human consumption.
It is thought that modern day dog biscuits were created by American inventor James Pratt sometime in the 19th century.
Toothbrush
Today, there are hundreds of types of dog biscuits, many of which claim that they can help maintain your dog's oral health by acting as a "toothbrush" cleaning the dog's teeth.
The origins of this holiday are unknown, and it is also known as Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day or National Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day in the U.S.
