More and more people want to honor their pets, especially dogs, who provide us with unconditional love and companionship. One of the most notable celebrations is Kukur Tihar, also known as the Festival of Dogs, originating in Nepal. This festival is part of Diwali and dedicates its second day to honoring dogs for their loyalty and protection.
During this emotional event, dogs, whether domestic or stray, are venerated with flower garlands, their foreheads are marked with sacred tika colors, and they are offered special meals as a token of gratitude. Altars are also set up to remember dogs who are no longer with us, and food is left on the streets so that homeless dogs can also participate in the tribute.
The festival includes shows, contests, and activities that promote adoption and respect for all dogs, reinforcing the importance of caring for our pets and recognizing their essential role in our lives.
To enjoy this festival even more, a great option is to offer our furry friends vitamin-enriched Churpi bars for dogs. In addition to being a natural and healthy snack, they help take care of their teeth and provide them with a special moment as a reward for their loyalty.
