Sprinkler In The Yard

You can turn your backyard into a private splash zone for your pup. Just take your pup for a romp through the sprinkler and play a water game with the garden hose. Although this can keep your pup cool but keep in mind that most dogs love to bite the hose and easily swallow plenty of water which leads to water intoxication, please play under your supervision.

Go Camping

Camping is a great way to get your dog into nature and inspires their curiosity to explore nature. You will build an intimate bond with your pup in ways that can’t happen at home sitting on the couch. There is a lot of uninterrupted time to fondle and love your dog, as well as some time to sit and just relax while enjoying the beautiful surroundings together. Before camping, it is necessary to have a trial run, especially if the pooch doesn’t have the camping experience with you. You are unsure how your dog will respond to the camping trip, and the trial run can help you have a basic assessment for your dog’s camping trip. Last but not least, remember to attach your pet ID card with your contact information on the harness and leash to prevent loss.
