Are you going on holiday with your dog this summer? 30millionsdamis.fr offers you three ideas for activities and outings to have a good time with your pet!
By the water, in the countryside or in the city… all places are ideal for spending unforgettable moments with your four-legged friend.
1 – Nautical Adventure
Does your pet like swimming? Good news: For the first time in France a swimming pool specially designed for dogs opened its doors in Mérignac, Gironde, in early June 2023. Owners can take their companion there to refresh, entertain or soothe them thanks to the therapeutic effects of the water.
You can also opt for the “canipaddle” or the “canicanoe”. Some water sports centers even go so far as to offer courses for beginners… which you can do in pairs with your dog! For a successful adventure, you must take a few precautions. Equip your companion with a life jacket or harness so that he can reach the surface and swim if he falls or gets tired in the water. The handle on the jacket can also help you get him back on board. Don’t forget to drink water to keep it hydrated. Forbid the leash and any attachment to the canoe to avoid unpleasant consequences if the canoe overturns.
The most experienced can even try surfing, like Chris de Aboitiz: this surfer, now a dog therapist, uses waves to help dogs with behavioral problems. ” It’s a great way to train your dog and have fun at the same timeThe Australian trusts 7 News. Surfing with dogs is a great way to bond with them ».
2 – Idyllic short break
If your pet loves to run around like most of his fellows, there is nothing better than a little picnic in nature to recover after the walk alone. Bring some games (balls, Frisbee) and a meal that you have prepared especially for him! You can even prepare a Ice to freshen it up.
When you go for a walk with your dog, take a camera with you to capture the moments you spend with him. Be ready for a beautiful photo as soon as he inhales the scent of a flower or rolls around in the grass!
3 – Historic moment
On a leash or carried (on your arm or in a basket), your dog can accompany you on a visit to the cave. He will appreciate the freshness of the place and will be happy to lie in contact with the damp ground!
Do you want something magical? Your four-legged companion can also accompany you to visit certain castles or monasteries, whose parks and gardens will delight him.
As a Parisian or visitor to the capital, you can discover the monuments and charm of Paris with your dog on a cruise on the Seine!
