We asked Temple students to take pictures of their adorable pets for National Pet Day, an unofficial holiday celebrated annually on April 11. It is a day to give your pets extra love and appreciation. Consider spoiling your pets with treats and toys or a special walk in a park. Many pet parents on this occasion enjoy sharing photos of their fur friends on social media using #DogsofTU. It is also a day to donate supplies and funds to animal shelters and raise awareness about pet adoption.

Here are some Temple-proud pets in photos. 

Being Temple proud is a universal thing.   

Taking naps is also a universal practice. 

Interests include long walks on Beury Beach. 

Paws-itively catching sun rays! 

I’m dog-tired, but I need my coffee from Richie’s!

There’s always someone willing to go on a road trip. 

They say Perseverance Conquers. 

Living the good life. 

Two pups who get everything they want at Temple. 

Can’t resist the puppy snuggles. 

You had me at meow.  

A dog who’s mastered the art of chair-sitting. 

I’m a little bit of Husky, and a little bit of rock ‘n’ roll with Temple Made in my soul.  

Just paws-ing for a moment. Dream big, sleep tight!
