One of the biggest pregnancy trends nowadays is the big gender reveal! The wonderful moment where everyone gets to learn whether the baby is either a girl or a boy! This great event should definitely include the entire family! Including your dog! Here is a list of ways your dog can be included in your gender reveal!
At A Gender Reveal Party
Hidden Color In A Doggie Cake
One of the yummiest ways to reveal whether you are having a baby boy or baby girl is a gender reveal cake! There are so many dog bakers in the area that are willing to be your gender keeper and make you a custom cake.
On the day of the reveal, get those cameras rolling and allow your dog to start consuming the cake. As they make their way through the frosting you will start to see either bright blue or beautiful pink! Just don’t forget to get a cake for the humans too!
Balloon Show
This one is for the braver dogs! Have your dog tucked away in the house with your gender keeper. Have that person tie some balloons to your dog’s collar or harness. Obviously, they will all be blue or pink depending on what baby is. When it is time, have your gender keeper release the hound to run through the party with their balloons to show everyone!
Outfit Reveal
This is exactly like the balloon show but instead of balloons, a cute outfit. When your gender keeper and the dog is tucked away, the gender keeper will get your dog dressed. It could be a t-shirt, bandana, tootoo. Get creative! Then get the cameras rolling and watch the fashion show! Blue for boy and pink for girl!
Popping A Balloon
If you have a pup that is obsession with balls or balloons this may be the one for you! Online you can get a gender reveal balloon. The outside is black and the inside is filled with confetti in the baby’s gender color. At your gender reveal party, call your dog over and have them start playing with the balloon encouraging them to pop it. Once they pop it, you’ll see the baby’s gender!
Painted Paw Prints
This is for those crafty couples who aren’t afraid of a little mess! For this one, you will need a cloth and some pet safe paints. Have your gender keeper dip your dog’s paws in either blue or pink paint. Have them and the dog on one side of the room and you on the other. When you’re ready, call the dog to come to you, making sure they run over the cloth. As they run, they will leave behind pink or blue paw prints!
Posting On Social Media
Black and White Photo
A super cute way to reveal what you are having on social media is to utilize the black and white photo. Have your dog sit with some balloons that are the color of either baby boy or baby girl.
Use a filter to change the photo to black and white then post on the socials. Have your friends and family share their guesses in the comments! After 24 hours, post the unfiltered photo revealing the pink or blue balloons!
Professional Photo Shoot
If you aren’t the most photo savvy person, hire a photographer! They will be able to get the best photos and edit them for you to share with the world on your baby’s gender. You can purchase your dog a cute bandana, sharing what baby is!
Whichever you choose to do, it will be absolutely perfect! Just having your dog included to begin with makes it such an extra special event! Check out other blogs that are for dogs and the family for more activities and family training.
