On Holiday with your Dog
Summer is the perfect time to go on an adventure together. More and more dog owners are choosing to take their four-legged companion along on holiday. Whether you’re planning a road trip, a cosy cottage in the mountains or a seaside escape, travelling with your dog is surprisingly easy with the right preparation.
Choose a Dog-Friendly Destination
A successful holiday starts with choosing the right destination. Think not only about what you enjoy, but also about what suits your dog. An energetic Labrador may love long mountain walks and swimming in lakes, while a smaller or short-legged breed is likely to be happier exploring peaceful woodland trails or relaxing on the beach. It’s also worth reading reviews from other dog owners and looking for the right accommodation with walking routes on the doorstep, a secure enclosed garden or easy access to nature. When your dog feels comfortable, you’ll enjoy your holiday even more.
Prepare Before You Travel
A little preparation goes a long way towards making your journey stress-free. Well before you leave, check the regulations for travelling with dogs in your destination country. Within Europe, your dog will need a European Pet Passport, and some countries have additional requirements, such as worming treatments or specific vaccinations. It’s also wise to locate a local veterinary practice near your holiday destination before you travel. Should anything unexpected happen, you’ll know exactly where to turn.
Your Holiday Checklist
Don’t forget to pack:
- European Pet Passport
- Vaccination records
- Tick and parasite protection, if required
- Canine first aid kit
- Spare lead, harness and collar
- Safety lights (also ideal for watersports)
- Plenty of food and favourite treats
- Water and a portable travel bowl
- Favourite toys or a familiar blanket
- Contact details of a local vet at your destination
Comfort Makes All the Difference
Whether you’re heading away for a long weekend or a few weeks, comfortable and practical accessories will make travelling with your dog far more enjoyable. A well-fitting harness from DOG Copenhagen offers comfort and control on long walks, while a secure lead helps keep your dog safe during your journey. After a refreshing swim, a highly absorbent bathrobe from Pomppa helps your dog dry off quickly, and Orbiloc Safety Lightsprovide extra visibility during early morning or late evening walks, as well as watersports activities. With the right preparation, nothing stands in the way of a relaxing holiday with your dog. All that’s left is to enjoy new adventures, beautiful walks and long summer days together.

Water sports with Your Four-Legged Friend
Summer is calling with endless adventures on the water! From paddleboarding at sunrise to an afternoon of sailing or a refreshing swim at the beach, long days outdoors and trips by the water are even better with your dog by your side. During these active moments, comfort and visibility are essential. With the dog bathrobe from Pomppa and the safety lights from Orbiloc, you’ll be ready for every watersports adventure this summer.
The Ideal Companion by the Water
After a swim or a day out on the boat, you want to keep your dog dry and comfortable as quickly as possible. That is exactly why Pomppa developed the BathPomppa. This bathrobe has been specially designed for dogs and is made from an absorbent material that efficiently draws in moisture. As a result, dogs dry much faster after swimming or playing in the water. The BathPomppa is ideal to bring along after paddleboarding, canoeing or spending the day at the seaside. In addition, the bathrobe helps reduce the chill caused by wind or cooler evening air, helping your dog stay comfortable at all times.
Easy to Put On
What makes the BathPomppa especially practical is its smart design. Pomppa understands that nobody wants to struggle with an enthusiastic dog eager to dash straight back into the water. That is why they created a bathrobe that is easy to put on and stays securely in place, even on active dogs that would rather keep running around — although ideally, you keep them out of the water afterwards. Thanks to the comfortable fit, your dog can move freely while the fabric absorbs moisture. This makes it easy to walk back to the car or head home together without worrying about wet car seats or damp furniture at home.
Safe On, In and Around the Water
Summer adventures do not stop when the sun goes down. Think evening walks along the harbour, camping trips or a late stroll on the beach after a warm summer’s day. That is when visibility becomes especially important. The Safety Lights from Orbiloc have been developed to make both you and your dog more visible in twilight and darkness. These safety lights are visible from up to five kilometres away and are designed for intensive outdoor use.
Waterproof and Shockproof
The Orbiloc safety lights are particularly suitable for watersports enthusiasts and active dogs. The lights are waterproof to considerable depths, shock-resistant and built to withstand a wide range of weather conditions. They can easily be attached to a collar, harness, life jacket or even your own coat or bag. This ensures that you and your dog remain clearly visible on and around the water, whether during the day, early in the morning or late at night.
Enjoy Watersports Together
With the combination of the BathPomppa and the Orbiloc Safety Lights, you can ensure both safety and convenience during every active summer day on, in and around the water: first enjoying the water together, then drying off comfortably and remaining safely visible once evening falls. Always practical, stylish and made for dogs that love water adventures. And after all, what dog does not get excited about water?

The BathPomppa is available in the colours Midnight, Plum and the new colour SeaSalt via your Pomppa B2B account. Orbiloc Safety Lights can be ordered quickly and easily via orders@noho.nl. Do you have any questions? Please email info@noho.nl or call +31 (0)6 109 104 63.
