After weeks of preparing for a dog-safe holiday, eating all the chocolate so your dogs would be safe (you are awesome!), passing on the shiny but dangerous plastic Easter grass and putting the leftovers in the refrigerator and the baskets on the top shelf, are you ready for some affirmation?  Here are some situations in which you can say “YES!” to those adorable puppy eyes that have probably been begging you all weekend for things to which you have had to say “NO.”

And still a disclaimer…If your veterinarian has said “NO” or your dog has medical issues that force you to say “NO” you need to go with that over the list.  Still, surely there are some things on this list to which you can say “YES!”
