Cooling Zone
If your party is outside during the hot summer months you will need to provide lots of fresh cool water for each doggie guest. A fun way to keep all the doggie guests cool is with a cooling zone. The cooling zone is a small kids pool filled with fresh water. The cooling zone is best if provided on a cement surface like the garage, patio, or driveway. The hard surface will not get muddy keeping your two and four legged guests happy and clean.
