Can you believe the weather we have been having recently? I bet all you dog owners have been up to the beach or out for some lovely leisurely walks in countryside. There is nothing better than a quiet stroll with you and your best friend in the warm weather is there?
However, these wonderful trips out come at a price which is the bane of many dog owners lives. The mess in your car can often spoil a lovely outing and also can be expensive to have your car seats or boot cleaned every weekend. A walk down the beach nearly always results in wet dog plus sand which equals a horrendous mess in the back of your car. A stroll through a forest or through a field is likely to end in a damp dog plus muddy paws which again, equals messy car.
The first car dog bed that I will recommend to stop your car boot from being covered in sand, hair, mud and water is the Poi Dog® Car Boot Liner. This is guaranteed to cover the entire floor of your car boot and its high edges will stop any muddy paws riding up the side of the car. Then when you get home just take it out of the boot, wipe it down with a damp cloth, dry it and throw it straight back in the boot for another lovely outing.
Poi Dog® Car Boot Liner – £34.99
Another great car dog bed by Poi Dog® is the Collapsible Dog Bed. This is great for use anywhere from the house to the back seat of the car or it can collapse to make a boot liner similar to the Poi Dog® Car Boot Liner mentioned previously. This is a really useful dog bed as it can be stored easily if you don’t want it to be your dogs’ main dog bed and get it out when you are taking them in the car. It makes a fantastic fold up space saver dog bed.
Poi Dog® Collapsible Dog Bed – From £28.99
Wherever you take your dogs this summer, just remember that your car needs looking after, too! There isn’t a more comfortable way to save your car than a Poi Dog® dog bed – for the dogs who just can’t stay clean!

Tomorrow is the day when people come together as one to celebrate their love for one another by buying their other halves a gift like flowers, jewellery; the list goes on. There are many stories as to how Valentine’s Day was ‘created’ as such, and enquiries about whether there really was a St Valentine.
When most people think of Valentine’s Day they will picture big red hearts, flowers and flying babies that shoot arrows at people to make them fall in love. Truthfully, Valentine’s Day only became a well-renowned holiday after it was written about by poet Geoffrey Chaucer when he was alive. Macys in New York was one of the first department stores to market products especially for Valentine’s Day which was of course followed by many others all over the world.
Quite a few countries in the Middle East have banned Valentine’s Day as a holiday and made it illegal to sell any red items in stores around the time, this is because it is seen as a Christian holiday and is not celebrated in their religions. However, lots of people in these countries still wanted to celebrate it as they saw it as a way to show love to their partners which encouraged to sale of roses and wrapping paper on the black market. Thankfully in most countries Valentine’s Day, or some form of interpretation, is legal and there is no need for the illegal sales of flowers.
Have you ever thought that your pets might feel left out on Valentine’s Day with all the fuss and not understanding why? I know I have and in the past have always got them a little something just to make them happy. There is nothing that I would recommend more than a Classic Oval Dog Bed from Purely Pet Beds as they make a great bed for dogs to settle into and they are even big enough to fit two dogs! That means that while you and your partner are snuggling up on the sofa, your dogs can join in the fun and snuggle together in their new Classic Oval Dog Bed.
If you have anything special planned for Valentine’s Day I’d like to hear what you’re doing and, as always, feel free to upload pictures of your dogs in their new Classic Oval Dog Bed on Valentine’s Day!
