How to enjoy summer fun with your furry friend

Summer is here, and it's time to make the most of the sunny days with your furry friends. At Barking Heads, we're barking mad about dogs and dedicated to ensuring they have the best time possible, even when the temperature rises. Ready to dive into some fantastic summer activities? Let's go!

Woodland Walks: Nature's Playground

Take advantage of the cooler mornings and late afternoons by exploring the great outdoors. Woodland walks provide shade, a variety of smells for your dog to explore, and a chance to connect with nature. Remember to carry plenty of water for both you and your furry friend to stay hydrated.

Trip to the Beach: Surf's Up, Pups!

Nothing screams summer like a day at the beach. Let your dog dig in the sand, splash in the waves, and chase seagulls to their heart's content. Just make sure to avoid the hottest part of the day, and keep an eye on their paws to prevent burns from hot sand.

Backyard Paddling Pool Fun: Cool Down in Style

You don't need to travel far for some summer fun. Set up a paddling pool in your backyard for a refreshing dip. Not only will it keep your dog cool, but it's also a great way to introduce them to water if they're not used to it. Throw in some floating toys for extra fun!

Picnic in the Park: Yummy Treats and Playtime

Pack a dog-friendly picnic and head to the park. While you enjoy your snacks, let your dog feast on our Bowl Lickin’ Goodness dry dog food. It’s packed with all the nutrients they need to stay energetic and healthy during your summer adventures.

Dog-Friendly Outdoor Cafes: Socialise and Relax

Find a dog-friendly cafe where you can both relax and enjoy a treat. It’s a great way to socialise your dog while enjoying the summer vibes. Make sure to bring along their favorite toy to keep them entertained while you sip your iced coffee.

DIY Obstacle Course: Backyard Olympics

Transform your backyard into a mini obstacle course using everyday items. Jump through hoops, weave between cones, and crawl under tables. It’s a fun and stimulating way to keep your dog active and mentally engaged.

Summer is the perfect time to create unforgettable memories with your furry friend. Whether you're hitting the beach, exploring the woods, or enjoying some backyard fun, Barking Heads is here to ensure your dog has the fuel they need for their summer escapades.

Don’t forget to capture these moments and share them with us on Instagram or Facebook. We can't wait to see your pups having a blast in the sun!
