Introducing the Gravitis Pet Supplies Dog Paddling Pool

The summer hols are almost here and this week we’ve added another new product to our range that will keep your dog happy during those endless sunny days in the garden.

How to keep your dog cool during a heatwave

Despite all of the publicity surrounding the RSPCA’s ‘Dogs Die in Hot Cars’ campaign, last year there was a surge of reports of animals suffering from heat exhaustion and the charity believe that the impact of heat on dogs is still often misjudged. So we thought that whilst many of us have been enjoying this lovely mini-heatwave this spring it was worth taking a look at some of the best ways to keep your dog cool during the warmer months.
