Dive in
There’s getting on the water, and then there’s getting in it. Did you know lots of the UK’s lidos take Fido? If you’re nowhere near a beach, why not have a doggy paddling pool in the garden or on the patio, with enough water to help them cool down and have a play.
Remember to keep an eye on your dog, and give them a life vest if they don’t know how to swim!
Camping with dogs
Sleeping under canvas this summer? We’ve got lots of dog-friendly campsites for you thanks to the brilliant barkpost and the Camping and Caravanning Club. Remember to always make sure your dog has water and can go in the shade – and don’t forget the travel bowls!
