Can you believe that summer is finally here? Now that the rain is starting to go away, it is time to spend more time outdoors with our dogs and enjoy the gorgeous weather. Even if the temperatures are a little hotter than I personally like, I know the girls love going outside for long walks or even playing with the hose as they chase some of their favorite toys. Keeping everything safe and fun outdoors is equal parts amazing summer dog toys for fun, and safe places where your dog can cool off and relax afterward. Luckily, it is easy to find fun and inexpensive summer dog toys to keep your pup happy as they play outdoors!

Summer Dog Toys: Gen7Pets Cool-Air Cot
After a long, hot hike, or blistering afternoon at the pool, it’s just as important to make sure our furry friends are cooling off as it is for their humans. Make it easier on them with the Gen7Pets Cool-Air Cot Pet Bed. This portable dog cot is perfect for dogs on the go since it is lightweight, durable, and stores and transports easily for pet parents. Raised off the ground by seven inches, the Cool-Air Cot helps keep pups off the ground, improving airflow while separating them from mud or dirt while they relax outdoors – which is also great for dogs with outdoor allergies. Not only is the material great for cooling (made from furniture-grade mesh), the bed itself is double stitched for extra durability and supported by a powdered-coated steel frame that will never rust.

Love the treat toy – great for the dogs that rapidly chew up treats and gives them something to do that lasts – also reduces calorie intake. My senior dog would love the raised bed – especially in the summer time for the air flow that would allow his body heat to escape. Nice selection of summertime goodies for our canine friends
The squeaker toys are my dog’s all time favorite! He usually chews the squeaker out of the toy in a day or two. He is a 101 pound lab mix rescue dog, and our family loves him to death.
I just love the squeaker toys for my three dogs. They destroy all their toys in a couple of days. They love to play and these toys would be perfect! Than they could all lay down on this great bed of their own.
I love the twist and treats. I need toys that my dogs can’t chew up.
The squeaker toys and the ball is our dog Coach’s favorite! He loves playing fetch and it’s great exercise.
The Twist-in Treats looks like a toy that my dog would love. Says it is made with tough chewers in mind. That is my dog. I have given him toys that he has destroyed within hours.
We like to stuff their Kong and then freeze them. The dogs love the cold treats we make. One of my dogs favorite toys is the Chuck It. We bring it to the dog park to keep the pups entertained.
Casey would love the Chuckit and Squeaker Ball. He loves getting outside in the summer when it is not too hot. We freeze steel bowls half full of water and give him fresh ice water three or four times a day, which he really likes. I always encourage him to drink and he sure seems to prefer water when it is ice cold! Thanks for introducing me to these products.
The cool air cot would be great for my friends senior dog when they are traveling and camping. A good way to keep her comfortable.
Nicely designed dog toys, some really helpful ones too. Good to end off the summer with your furry friend. Nice shares.
The Gen7Pets Cool-Air Cot is really nifty, and a great concept! It would make a nice gift, too!
What great dog toys! My neighbors dog would love them!
The JW Twist-In Treats toy is awesome! Might be a little big for my boy but he can’t stand to see something inside something else. It would be a blast to watch him try to get the treats out. The squeaker balls might be good for larger dogs but my little boy doesn’t have enough jaw power to squeak most of them…I always have to hunt for ones that squeak with a very light touch. Sometimes though, if he can’t make them squeak with his mouth he sits on them…it is hilarious to watch because he keeps trying to look where he is sitting and then winds up kneeling on it rather than sitting.
