  1. Provide plenty of cold water. Whether you’re taking your dog on a hike or just playing in the back yard, it’s important to have cold water available and accessible. The Yeti dog bowl holds 64 oz and has a double coated wall that helps keep the water cool. If you’re not wanting to fill up the dog bowl frequently then you should get a dog water fountain. It holds 2.8 liters!!

2. Play in the water. If you are wanting to play in a pool, sprinkler, or even a lake we have the items for you.

3. Give a summer hair cut. A doodle can benefit from having a summer cut. We love the teddy bear hair cut but during the summer months we ask for it a little shorter around the muzzle. Avoid shaving if possible to protect your dogs skin.

4. Make a Frozen Treat

Ingredients:
5 strawberries
1/4 cup of plain greek yogurt
4 tbs water
1 tsp coconut oil

Directions:

1. Remove stalks off of strawberries
2. Put strawberries, greek yogurt, water, and oil into blender
3. Pour mixture into molds and freeze for 1-2 hours. We use the Groov for molds and snagged a discount code for you. Use MLF to save!

5. Avoid the asphalt. Check the pavement for heat before taking your dog on a walk. Place your hand or bare foot on the surface for 5 seconds. If it’s too hot for you to keep your hand or foot on it then it is too hot for your them.
