Keep Your Dog Cool This Summer

Like us humans, dogs can love summertime too. However, unfortunately dog's are unable to regulate their body temperature in the same way that we can. So whether you are out on a walk with you furry friend or playing in the garden, it is important to remember to keep you dog cool to prevent the risk of heatstroke. The main signs of heatstroke in dogs are heavy panting, excessive drooling, collapsing or vomitting. Dogs suffering from heatstroke quickly need to have their temperature lowered and once they are cooled then taken to your nearest vet.

Thinking of ways to keep your dog cool in summer can be difficult but at Pets.ie we have carefully picked out the perfect products to help keep your dog cooler and happier for longer. Check out some of our cooling products below that your dog is guaranteed to love.

The filling will re-solidify when the mat is left in a relatively cool place such as a cool room and will be ready to use again. This also makes the mat the perfect cooling tool when travelling during the summer with your dog.
