Make Your Own Bark Mitzvah!
You’ve heard of Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, but what about Bark Mitzvahs? All across America, “Japs” (Jewish American pooches) are pawing their way out of puppydom and into adulthood. Commemorate the milestone by hosting a traditional coming of age celebration for your pet! “Bark” Mitzvahs give dogs the opportunity to demonstrate how they’ve shed their former mischievous fur to become the mature, loyal friends they were born to be.
