Christmas gift ideas for your dog

Cooling Mat: Perfect for summer, the Trixie Cooling Mat is designed to provide cooling relief to your pet when they are feeling the heat. The mat is pressure activated and works without additional cooling, electricity or water. It is simple to use: place the mat in a cool spot and encourage your pet to sit on it. The temperature of the pad will start to drop, cooling your pet down with it for several hours in one session and is ideal for use in the car, in your dog’s bed or kennel.

Cooling Vest: Your dog will be the coolest in more ways than one with the Trixie Cooling Vest! Made of highly absorbent PVA, the Trixie Cooling vest for dogs supports thermoregulation (e.g. in sport, training and competitions) and is an ideal gift for older dogs as well.

Cooling Bandana: Lightweight and stylish, the Trixie Cooling Bandana is a comfortable cooling collar that wicks away heat through evaporation. Made from absorbent PVA material, simply soak in water, and it will help to cool your dog on hot summer days.

Dog Splash Pool: Now your dog can have its own outdoor pool to splash about in on a hot summer's day! No need to inflate this pool, the ridged folding structure means that you can quickly set up the pool. After use the side valve makes releasing the water easy and for convenience, the pool folds down and fits compactly in its handy storage bag.

Dog Rash Vest: Keep your fun-loving pooch protected from the heat and harmful UV rays with the EzyDog Dog Rashie Vest. This dog rash guard is a protective shirt originally worn by surfers as protection against sunburn and heat rash while in the water.

Life Jacket: Does your dog have trouble swimming? Or just wants to look cool near the water? Well the EzyDog Dog Floatation Device is the perfect Christmas gift for your pooch! The foam inside the Dog Floatation Device (DFD) has been strategically placed to ensure that every dog will swim upright when in water. Unlike other vests, the DFD does not hinder your dog's natural movement and can be fastened/removed easily and quickly.

Sun Protection: Just like people, dogs need protection from the sun. Doggy Sunmist provides the fastest, most convenient way to protect your dog from the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays whenever they are outdoors.
