New, exclusive and affordable summer supplies,
toys, accessories and apparel help keep pets feeling cool and
looking fashionable all season long, with most items priced under
$15 and almost all under $25
SAN
DIEGO, May 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- With summer
around the corner, pets and pet parents will soon be spending even
more time together outdoors. This year, Petco is helping pet
parents prepare for all types of summer activities – from pool
"pawties" and barbeques to travel and adventures – with new
essentials designed to keep pets safe, cool and stylish all season
long at an affordable price point.
- Protect against pests: Bugs come out in full force in
the summer, so make sure pets have the right preventative care in
place with flea and tick medication, a special collar, or a
cleansing shampoo to keep pests at bay. Summer is also a great time
to visit the vet for a routine check-up and confirm pets are up to
date on their vaccinations.
- Beat the heat: It's always important to look out for and
prevent overheating and dehydration in pets, but especially during
the hotter summer months. Keep pets protected from the sun with a
hat or tent and ensure they always have access to fresh, clean
water. Protect their paws from the hot concrete with cooling socks
and implement sun protection for any outdoor adventure. Apparel
such as vests and bandanas are great for keeping pets cool, while
fun fruit-shaped fill-and-freeze toys and dog bone-shaped frozen
treat molds can help them stay hydrated. Stay on top of regular
grooming appointments to remove excess fur and keep grooming shears
and a de-shedding tool on-hand at home for touch-ups.
- Make a splash: It's not a pool party without a pool for
our furry family members to join in on the fun. From a palm tree
sprinkler to a colorful splash pad, there are plenty of options to
fit any pup's water play needs. Keep safety top of mind with dog
life vests, and pets can dive into the season with fruit-inspired
swimsuits and rash guards in colorful summer prints. For pets that
love extra exercise, a water agility hoop is perfect for practicing
new tricks and water balls make fetching a blast.
- Offer a cooling treat: Snack time is everyone's favorite
time, especially on a warm summer day. Stock up on fun summer
treats, including slushy frozen pops for dogs and squeezable treats
for cats, that both hydrate and reward pets, or add a hydrating
topper to their daily meals.
- Travel in style: For pet parents bringing their pets on
trips and other adventures, a checklist of helpful supplies is key:
travel bowls, carriers, calming chews, throws and toys, and stylish
summer-themed collars and leashes. Petco's fashion and lifestyle
brand, Reddy, brings a new "On-the-Go" collection with a trendy
lilac crossbody bag, complete with a waste bag dispenser and
carabiner that can be easily attached to a matching lead, collar
and treat bag. Paired with matching accessories, travel-themed toys
and balls with a holder, this ensemble is ideal for traveling in
style.
Pet parents can find their pets' summer essentials at Petco
pet care centers nationwide, at petco.com and via the Petco app.
Petco offers various convenient ways to shop including buy online,
pick up in store, curbside pick-up and same-day delivery.
