International Dog Day is Tuesday, Aug. 26, and we want every dog to have its day with the help of local specials this year.

Austinites are some of the most dog-loving folks in the country — the Capital City is the No. 2 most dog-friendly city according to Sniffspot — so grab your pup and get ready to treat them to these International Dog Day specials.

Upstairs at Caroline | This cozy downtown spot will offer a special puppy menu, including peanut butter pup cups + doggy ice cream, plus an all-day “yappy” hour for 25% off your tab.

Jo’s Coffee | All locations of this local chain will serve free pup cups all day long when you come in for your coffee.

Lick Honest Ice Creams | Got multiple doggies? You can get BOGO pup cups from this shop on International Dog Day.
