There are all kinds of doggy dads out there, but this one’s for all those who’re as loyal to their teams as they are to their pups. You know the ones — they dress their dogs in the same throwback jerseys every Sunday, wake up extra early so they have the hiking trail to themselves, and save special seats for their four-legged friends at every tailgate. With Pawther’s Day just around the corner, we’ve picked out some of our favorites items and products for these spirited dads.
