Birthday Captions from a Dog's Point of View
Even if your pup doesn't have their own Instagram account, it can be fun to create a birthday post from their point of view. Better yet, pair a caption with a fun birthday selfie! These cute and cheeky captions will let followers know how your dog really feels about getting another year (or seven dog years!) older.
- "I get to spend another year with my favorite human?? Score!"
- "I've got the zoomies because it's my Barkday."
- "'It's your birthday, treat yourself' doesn't apply because I get treats every day." #spoiled
- "It's my birthday, which means it's time to pawty, mother puppers!"
- "Howl you doin'? I'm the birthday [boy/girl]!"
- "It's my pawty and I'll woof if I want to."
Captions to Celebrate Your Dog's "Gotcha Day"
Many owners of adopted dogs don't know their pup's exact date of birth. You might choose to celebrate the day you brought your bundle of fur home instead of their birthday, or maybe you like to recognize both! Let friends and family know this is the anniversary of the day you got your best friend with a "Gotcha Day" caption.
- Happy Gotcha Day to the best [boy/girl]. Thank you for choosing me.
- [X] years ago I had no idea how much my life would change. Now, I can't imagine my life without you.
