Dog Days of Summer Safety at Cabo Dog Boutique!

Summer can be an exciting and fun time for families and pets alike. The kids are off from school so they can relax and play more, parents often save up all that precious time-off for a summer vacation and there is few things more pleasant than relaxing by an outdoor swimming pool.

Although exciting, summer can also be a tough time on pets. Here are some summer safety tips for your dog:

Dog Vaccinations

Stay up-to-date on all pet vaccinations. Warmer weather brings mosquitos and the increased time spent outside means that your pet has a higher likelihood of getting bitten by a mosquito or tick. These critical pet vaccinations can help prevent your pet from “feeling the sting”.

If they do feel the "sting" Cabo Dog Boutique has a effective way to help - the Itch Relief Dog Spray has Grapefruit seed Extract to prevent both bacterial and fungal infections. This dog Itch Relief spray eases the discomfort of itchy skin caused by minor irritations and insect bites and helps relieve hot spots. The dog spray also combats inflammation and has powerful antioxidant-like properties.

Your dog in the Summer Heat

Be aware of how hot pavement and roads can burn the paw pads of your pup. Try and walk your dog on grassy surfaces to prevent burns and calluses from building up on their feet. 

You can find some great doggie socks to help protect those little feet. These dog socks are disposable and yet pretty dang cute!

Water Safety for your Dog

Swimming can be a great way to get your dog active during the summer but heed caution if they aren’t used to it. Slowly introduce them by allowing them to jump in the pool by their own will and praise them for paddling. Always keep your eye on your pet as undercurrent and swells at lakes and oceans can be dangerous. 

If your dog has never been in water or you are unsure of how he will perform - you need a dog floatation device. The Doggy Flotation Device has been designed and extensively tested to give your dog the most ergonomic and comfortable fit possible.  This unique Ultra-buoyancy Foam is strategically positioned within the dog life vest to keep your dog in a natural swimming position at all times. Unlike other dog life vests, the Doggy Flotation Device does not hinder your dogs' natural movement and can be quickly and easily fastened and removed.

So soak up some rays this summer and help make it the most enjoyable time of the year for you.. and your pet and shop Cabo Dog Boutique for all the latest dog beach apparel and summer dog accessories.

Prepare your pooch for warmer weather at Cabo Dog!

Prepare your pet for the warmer months by planning for some of the things that might keep them from enjoying the beautiful weather.

While the weather is slowing heating up, that furry coat of hair that our dogs embrace during colder months becomes such a hassle! It also is trouble if you have a long haired pooch!

Shedding

Many dogs shed during springtime, it’s a transition that dogs undergo to “lighten up” for the warmer temperatures outside. If you have a large breed dog with thick hair, they might need more help than others.  Dog Massage Lotion. What a great idea and a real treat for him or her!!

Always remember to gently (and regularly) brush your dog so your dog’s skin is stimulated and that knots and tangles in the coat will be taken care of. Certain brushes can make the dog’s experience more enjoyable as well by creating a “massage-like” experience for them. You can even give your pup a massage to help his skin as well with

Dog Allergies

The curse of allergies doesn’t just strike humans; dogs can have allergies too. If you see your dog repeatedly sneezing, coughing or itching—it’s a possibility that you dog might have seasonal allergies. Check with a local veterinarian or animal medical specialist to see what some appropriate canine allergy medicines might help your pet enjoy the outdoors without the frustration of allergies. Don't forget to clean their little ears too with a Dog Ear Cleanser. Cleaning your pup's ears also helps get all the "gunk" out so there are no ear infections caused by the dog allergies. Also Cabo Dog Boutique has some great eco friendly dog products that will also help with allergies.

Toxins

It’s no secret that dogs are living “garbage disposals”—they’ll eat everything! Certain chemicals found in mulch for flowers beds or potting soil can be dangerous or even deadly for your pet. Ask your local hardware store where some pet-friendly soils and chemicals can be purchased.

By taking a quick few steps of action, you can make sure that the warmer outside spring and summer months are enjoyed by both you and your furry friend!

Make sure to shop for your summer dog items at Cabo Dog Boutique. The dog t-shirts, dog hats and dog sunglasses are sure must have's for the summer. If you are traveling this summer, don't forget your BFF, get a Cabo Dog Pet Boutique dog carrier to travel in style.
