Calling all pet owners – we've found everything you need to keep your furry family members cool
Avoid your pet overheating during the heatwave with the help of these savvy cooling solutions
As a dog owner, I've suddenly panicked about keeping my pup cool during stifling temperatures once the heatwave hits. And if last year's weather is anything to go by, it's only going to get hotter from here on in, so I'm determined to be more prepared this year.
But of course, it's not just dogs, it's important to keep all domesticated animals cool because hot weather creates uncomfortable living conditions for us humans – imagine how unbearable it can be for our fur-covered friends.
It goes without saying that finding ways to keep your home cool will also help, and for that, you can't go far wrong with one of the best cooling fans.

As much as we all celebrate the hot weather, it can be dangerous for our beloved pets. If, like me, you have a dog, there are plenty of helpful guidelines from the RSPCA on dogs in summer to warn owners when it's too hot to walk, so you might need to adjust your schedule accordingly.
