Paddling Pools for Dogs

Paddling pools help four-legged companions get through hot days – they cool them down, keep them entertained, and the buoyancy of the water is easy on their joints. Choose according to your dog's size and the space you have in the garden or on the terrace: smaller breeds are fine with a diameter of around 80 cm, while larger dogs need 120 cm or more. Foldable pools with rigid walls fill and pack away quickly, and a hard-wearing, non-slip base can handle claws with no trouble.

How to choose the right paddling pool for your dog:

• Size: choose a diameter that lets your dog turn around comfortably – small breeds ~80 cm, medium ~100 cm, large breeds 120 cm or more.
• Material: sturdy PVC or MDF walls stand up to claws, and a non-slip base is safer.
• Maintenance: change the water regularly, and dry and fold the pool away at the end of the season.

What size of dog is a paddling pool suitable for?

All sizes – it's the diameter that matters. Small breeds are fine with ~80 cm, while larger dogs need 120 cm or more.

Can the base cope with dog claws?

Models with a hardened PVC or MDF base and a non-slip finish are built to withstand claws and hold up to everyday use.

How do you look after a dog paddling pool?

Change the water regularly, rinse the base after use, and at the end of the season dry the pool thoroughly and store it folded in a dry place.
