Our dogs only have so many birthdays in their lives, so it is important to celebrate them! One of my favorite ways to celebrate is to get a dog birthday cake from a local dog bakery. Cake smashes, or a photoshoot of your dog eating or “smashing” their cake, are one of my favorite things! These bakeries for dog birthday cakes and other doggie treats are what you need to get the sweet fix for your photo shoot!
