What is National Mutt Day?
National Mutt Day is exactly what it says on the tin: a holiday just to celebrate dogs with mixed breed. Generally known as “Mutts”, these dogs make up a majority of dog population, and if you have your own rescue pup, the chance is that you have a mut!
When is National Mutt Day?
Unlike most holidays, National Mutt Day occurs twice a year: December 2 and July 31. In this way, there is plenty of time to celebrate dogs of all kinds and advocate for them all year round!
The story of National Mutt Day
Originally founded by Colleen PaigeNational Mutt Day was not made with a specific dog in mind. Instead, Paige wanted to create a day devoted to spreading awareness of dogs with mixed breed and how many of those remain in shelters. The holiday continues to raise money for animal rescue services and shelters where mixed dogs are often abandoned.

How to celebrate National Mutt Day
So, how can you celebrate National Mutt Day? Whether you participate in July's Mutt Day or December's, there are a lot of things you can do:
Volunteer
For starters, voluntary your time on a local animal welfare is a great way to show how much you care about the nuts in your area. Animal welfare can always use an extra helping hand, whether it is with the dogs or respond to telephone calls at the reception. Ensuring that guard dogs receive the care they deserve, especially during extremely hot and cold days is one of the best things you can do to honor the nuts in your life.
Promoting a protective dog is another excellent way to voluntarily as well: it gives dogs a loving home and gives puppies with special needs a chance to receive important care that shelters could otherwise not provide.
Donate
If you don't have time to donate, why not donate physical goods instead? Local animal welfare needs blankets, toys, food and supplies for their dogs to be happy while waiting for an eternal family. Ask how you can donate to your local animal welfare or veterinary clinic by calling them – a representative will let you know what the protection needs and how you can give it to them.
