What Is National Dog Day?

National Dog Day falls on August 26 each year. Founded in 2004 by animal welfare advocate Colleen Paige, the holiday celebrates the unconditional love dogs bring to human lives and encourages adoption and appreciation for dogs of all breeds. From working service dogs to family companions, National Dog Day is a moment to recognize the role dogs play in households and communities across the country.

On Cape Cod, dogs are practically part of the local culture. You see them on the beach in Falmouth, at the farmers market in Cotuit, and along the bike paths of Sandwich and Bourne. National Dog Day is a fitting occasion to celebrate the dogs that make life on the Cape so much richer.

What Is the Free Nail Trim Event at Super Pet?

Super Pet Grooming Salon is hosting a free nail trim event on Wednesday, August 26, 2026 from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM at 122 Teaticket Hwy, East Falmouth, MA (Route 28). Every dog that comes through the door during those two hours receives one complimentary professional nail trim from Sabina, Super Pet's lead certified groomer.

Here is what the event includes:

• One free professional nail trim per dog
• Performed by a certified groomer using professional-grade tools
• No products to purchase and no obligation to book future services
• Open to all breeds and sizes
• New and returning clients are both welcome

This is Super Pet's way of giving back to the Cape Cod community and celebrating National Dog Day in a meaningful, practical way. Nail trims are one of the most overlooked parts of dog care, and this event removes any barrier to accessing that service.

What You Need to Bring

The event is simple, and so is what you need to bring:

• Your dog on a leash
• Proof of current Rabies vaccination

That is it. You do not need to bring any products, shampoos, or grooming supplies. New clients will complete a brief registration form at check-in so the team can keep records on file for future visits. The process is designed to be relaxed and low-pressure for dogs and their owners alike.

What Happens at Check-In

When you arrive at Super Pet on August 26, the check-in process is straightforward and quick:

1. Check in at the front desk and confirm your dog's name
2. New clients fill out a brief registration form covering name, contact information, and vaccination records
3. Your dog is taken directly to the grooming area for their nail trim
4. The trim takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes depending on your dog's size and temperament
5. Your dog is returned to you, ready to enjoy the rest of their National Dog Day

Super Pet does not use cage drying and maintains a calm, stress-reduced environment for every dog that visits. That same standard applies during the event. Your dog will be handled with the same care and attention they would receive during a regular appointment.

Why Super Pet Is Hosting This Event

Super Pet Grooming Salon has been serving dogs and their families in East Falmouth for over 10 years. With more than 500 pets groomed and a 5-star Google Guaranteed rating across 47-plus reviews, the salon has built its reputation on trust, care, and professionalism.

The National Dog Day event is rooted in that same philosophy. Sabina and the Super Pet team believe that every dog deserves professional grooming care, and the best way to earn a new client's trust is to let them experience the salon in a low-pressure setting. Many dog owners are not sure where to start with nail trims, or they have had a difficult experience at another location. This event removes that hesitation entirely.

It is also a genuine celebration. Dogs on Cape Cod have a good life, and their owners invest a great deal in their wellbeing. National Dog Day is a chance to honor that relationship and to bring the community together around something they share: a love for their dogs.

How to RSVP

Walk-ins are welcome during the 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM window, but an RSVP is strongly encouraged to help Super Pet manage capacity and ensure every dog gets their trim without a long wait.

There are two ways to RSVP:

• Online at superpethome.com/event (takes 30 seconds)
• By phone at (508) 524-3489 during business hours, Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm
