5 x Inspiration for Autumn
From soaking wet to stormy and from chilly to pleasantly mild; autumn has it all. As a dog owner, you better be well prepared for that. NOHO lists the five absolute must-haves in terms of dog products for this season, so you can make it a powerful autumn.
1. Safety lights from Orbiloc
Once the days get shorter, dog owners cannot do without Orbiloc’s super robust safety lights. Made to last in all weather conditions, fully waterproof, shockproof, with 5 kilometres of visibility and long battery life.
2. Mackintosh for your best friend
Pomppa picks up this season, as it does every year, with new colours and trendy prints. Meanwhile, they also make one of the best mackintoshes around for dogs: the SadePomppa. This lightweight raincoat is perfect for year-round use, protecting your best friend from both nasty drizzle and heavy downpours. Optionally, you can combine the SadePomppa with the dog jumper JumppaPomppa on colder days.
3. Drying bathrobe
EQDOQ’s Doggy Dry bathrobe is perfect for coming home after autumn showers. You simply wrap the bathrobe around your dog and the clever, durable microfibres do the rest: they ensure your dog’s fur dries in a very short time. This prevents leaving traces on walls and furniture. Going out with the dog by car? Then wrap the dog bathrobe around your dog before your dog enters the car. That way, you will avoid car seats being covered in mud.
4. Water- and windproof women’s parka
The all-round women’s Tuvaq parka is proving to be an absolute winner every autumn. Not surprisingly, as this elegant outdoor jacket is waterproof and windproof with fully taped seams, but the breathable coating prevents you from sweating. The parka has a fixed hood and a handy 2-way zip. The women’s parka is now available in pale orange, dark navy and lilac and in sizes XS to 4XL.
5. Water- and windproof sports jacket for men
For men, Owney Outdoor’s Nova sports jacket is a godsend. The outdoor jacket is equipped with a back pocket, treat pocket, poop bag reservoir and detachable hood. The jacket is windproof and waterproof with fully taped seams, but not stuffy thanks to the breathable coating and underarm ventilation. The jacket is available in cobalt blue and in sizes S to XL.

EQDOG provides 4 refreshments in the summer
Perhaps in the summer you seek coolness by the air conditioning or ventilator. Maybe you regularly swim in the sea or in a swimming pool. Or you drink liters of iced tea underneath a parasol. But how do you help your dog through the sweltering summer? Fortunately, EQDOG helps faithful four-legged friends get through a hot summer with four different ingenious dog accessories.
1. Dog shoes
Did you know that asphalt can heat up tremendously fast? At an outside temperature of 25 degrees Celsius, asphalt can reach a temperature of 50 degrees. And when it gets tropically warm, asphalt can even reach over 60 degrees. You can often feel that in your own footwear, but how do you think that warm asphalt feels to dog paws? If travelling via paving stones or grass is not an option, then dog shoes in summer can be a solution. EQDOG’s dog shoes are easy to put on and take off, but stay on firmly. They have good grip and the super fiber shoe sole protects tender dog feet from unpleasant and even painful temperatures.
2. Life Vest
Dogs love water and especially if you are into water sports yourself or like to cool off in the water, a life vest for your dog can be a smart idea. The Life Vest from EQDOG is made of non-absorbent materials, has a great fit and is equipped with a convenient handle that allows you to lift up to 170 kilos. In addition, and most importantly, the life vest helps the dog float in the water. That’s important because swimming is much more intense than running; 5 minutes in the water is equal for a dog to 8 kilometers of running. Therefore, a life jacket is a must for those who swim with their dog this summer. EQDOG offers a Classic Life Vest in orange and dark gray and the reflective Pro Life Vest for very active dogs in the water.

3. Cool vest
Many people choose to use a wet towel to cool down the dog. However, those who put a damp towel over the dog actually prevent the heat from escaping. A cooling vest can be the ideal tool for your dog to cool down. But: many cooling vests are made of materials that are toxic, which makes them unsuitable for dogs who like to chew their clothes. The Cool Dog from EQDOG is a cooling vest that is made of non-hazardous materials. The vest you make wet and provides long-term cooling thanks to the special layer ACO-DRY®. This material cools itself and ensures, together with the evaporation of the water in the vest, that the body temperature of the dog drops.
4. Ready-to-go water bowl
Fresh drinking water is very important, especially in a sweltering summer. To be on the safe side, it is therefore wise to set up several water bowls in the house during warm weather – possibly with a few ice cubes in them every now and then. Also when you go out with the dog, drinking is important. Because it is precisely then that your dog’s body needs more cooling. With the Travel Bowl from EDDOG, you always have a water bowl at hand. The bowl weighs only 70 grams and, thanks to the handy size of 12 centimeters folded, you can take it anywhere. Once unfolded, the water bowl has a diameter of 27 centimeters.
| Extra tip Does your dog not feel like drinking? Try adding some carrot juice, chicken broth or pieces of fruit to the water. |
