When the heat turns up, we're not the only ones sweating! Our fur babies feel the warmth too. Luckily for us, there are plenty of tips, tricks and products on the market from a bunch of clever clogs out there so we can keep our pets in tip-top comfort. From cooling bandanas to floating beach toys, these are our favourite products for a fun summer with your pet.
Frank Green Silicone Pet Bowl, $19.95
Our water bottles are walking essentials in summer. If your pooch is coming along for a jaunt, theirs is just as essential. Frank Green's silicone pet bowl is nice and lightweight and easily foldable so you can pop it back in your pocket (or fit it to the bottom of your 1L bottle) after fido has hydrated.
Pet Parlour Scruffs Pet Cooling Dog Mat, from $89.99
Being furry all over is not so fun on hot days. This genius cooling mat from Pet Parlour will maintain temperatures 5-10 degrees cooler than room temp. Pop it in their existing bed for extra comfort.
Petbarn Lickimat, from $12.99
This genius device won't just keep your pet cool, it'll also keep them entertained for a good few minutes! Lickimats are great for enrichment and the best part is you can spread almost anything on them. Frozen smashed strawberries, cold yogurt and cream cheese are just a few options!
Catit Stainless Steel Cat Flower Drinking Fountain, $79.99
This cute water fountain provides a constant stream of water for your furry friend whilst looking a whole lot more schmick than your standard drinking bowl. On top of being dishwasher safe, this beauty will filter the water for your pet keeping things nice and hygienic.
W&P Cup Cubes Freezer Tray, $20
The options are endless with this one. Most dogs adore a few ice cubes in their water bowl on a hot day but you can make it even more fun by freezing low sodium liquid stock, berries, peanut butter and banana and even toys into their ice cubes. We love this W&P cup cube freezer tray as it offers a lot more width and depth than your standard tray.
Pet Parlour TrueLove Pet Cooling Vest, from $94.99
If a swim isn't on the cards, this pet cooling vest is just the ticket to help your best mate catch some relief. Simply soak the vest in water, pop on your dog and the vest will cool your dog throughout the day.
Kazoo Pet Extreme Play Floating Dog Toys, from $9.95
Nothing beats a good old-fashioned trip to the beach for a cool down. For those furry friends who need a little more encouragement or stimulation when it comes to splashing around, these extreme play toys from Kazoo are super tough and they also float!
Petbarn All For Paws Pet Pool, from $89.99
Score your furry friend their very own pool to splash about in and we guarantee you'll have no regrets. This pool from All For Paws is easy to set up (no inflation required) and pack away, made from extra tough PVC and also features an anti-slip bottom for maximum pup safety.
