SUMMER BEGINS: COMFORT AND HYDRATION TAKE CENTER STAGE
The month of June often brings the first real summer days. That means enjoying the sun, but also extra vigilance for the well-being of your dog. Dogs overheat faster than humans, so sufficient cooling and access to fresh water are absolutely essential. At Hondenhoek.com you will find everything to keep your dog cool, comfortable and happy, from drinking bottles to cooling mats.
COOL AND SAFE ON THE ROAD
Are you planning trips or even a holiday with your dog? Then good preparation is half the battle. A breathable dog harness, a foldable water bowl and a sunshade for in the car are not an unnecessary luxury. Also think of products such as paw balm for warm surfaces and a light cooling jacket. Be sure to check out our summer equipment category for handy must-haves on warm days.
PLAYING FUN AND COOLING DOWN IN THE GARDEN
Your dog can also enjoy the summer at home. Let him romp around with water toys, chill on a cooling mat or enjoy an ice cream especially for dogs (available at some pet stores). Our dog swimming pools are popular and easy to set up. And with a snuffle mat or water play ball your dog will remain mentally and physically stimulated.
CARE FOR YOUR COAT AND SKIN IN SUMMER
Warm temperatures also mean more shedding, dry skin, and the potential for parasites. Regular brushing, a nourishing shampoo, and protection against ticks and fleas are essential. Our grooming products help you with this. Tip: schedule grooming sessions early in the day or in the evening, when it is cooler for your dog.
