Beach DOg

Hello all, I am taking Riggo on our family vacation to the beach in August. We go to the beach to run around a few times a month but I have never taken him for a long period of time. We are going to Corolla, NC for 7 days and I am just so happy we can vacation with him this time! Just wondering if anyone had any advice??? I have figured out to make sure we have lots of bottled water, salt water is not good for his tummy!
Lots of Boxer Love,
Courtney and Riggo

Yep bottles of water is a must. I have one with the pop top for our girls and that way not too much gets wasted, they drink straight from the bottle. I'd also recommend a frisbee and/or some balls so they have something to play with. I'm sure they'll have a great time. We just got back from a weekend at the beach with our girls and they slept for a full day afterwards!

Don't forget the sunscreen...

I have two water bottles called the "Gulpy". Instead of having a cap on the opening there is a fip top the length of the bottle that is a trough for the water to pour directly into. Instead of trying to pour water into their mouth they can drink it out of the little trough. Perfect for long walks! I've seen them at most any pet store. I would pick one up for sure!
