Here are some strategies to help keep your dog’s water bowl cool and refreshing:
- Keep your dog’s bowl in the shade whenever possible.
- Freeze a water bottle and place it in your dog’s bowl. The frozen water bottle acts as a giant ice cube without melting too fast. The mini water bottles are a perfect size.
- Get your dog a clay or ceramic water bowl. These bowls will help keep the water much cooler than steel or plastic.
- Purchase a cooling pet bowl. These special bowls have inserts that you freeze overnight, they will keep your dog’s water fresh and cool for up to eight hours.
By using any of these tricks, you will be able to ensure your dog’s water bowl will be kept cool in the summer heat – helping them stay happy and healthy!
