What is International Blind Dog Day?

Created in 2021 by Sarah Horne after her dog Shammy lost his sight, International Blind Dog Day challenges the myth that blind dogs can't live full, happy lives. It celebrates their resilience and encourages adoption, showing that a little extra care goes a long way.

How to celebrate

Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
