Dogs That Love Water

Have a water dog on your hands? She's going to get way down with this gear!

To the beach!

Get wet and wild with Mammoth Treevers. These durable, double-stitched floating toys are great for heavy chewers, tuggers, and rough players, both in the water and off. Filled with all-natural granulated cork, reinforced with heavy-duty cotton canvas, and covered with soft and colourful neoprene, Treevers thrilled our retrievers! From $7, mammothpet.com

Go the distance!

For high flying, floating fun, you can't beat the new Chuckit! Ultra Sling with Ultra Dart Float fetch toy. This compact sling can shoot long or short distances, making it perfect for smaller yards or open parks and beaches. Pair it with the Ultra Dart Float, the companion rubber fetch toy designed to float and clad in high-visibility orange for easy tracking and spotting. Four other dart styles are available—if you're looking for rough play, erratic flight, or long-distance play, there's a dart for that too! Ultra Sling, $19; Ultra Dart Float, $9, chuckit.com

Get wet!

Forget wet, stinky collars. Your water-loving dog deserves a collar made especially for dogs that like to get wet! Hydro collars are no-stink, waterproof collars from the folks at Hot Dogs All Dressed. Super durable and super cute, they come in tons of colours with myriad decorative charm options, from totems to cupcakes, and they're super easy to clean, too, so they're great for dogs that like to get dirty, to boot. From $19, hotdogsalldressed.com

Float your boat!

Billed as the biggest, baddest dog ball out there, the Jolly Pet Push-n-Play is just that! It floats, it's a great exerciser (buy the extra large size for soccer-style play), and, with a screw plug that lets you fill it with water or gravel if you want to make it weightier, it's great for strong dogs. The biggest size is perfect for extra large dogs and it's guaranteed indestructible—glowing online reviews, like one from a thrilled Mastiff owner, provide further testimony. Comes in five sizes, 3" to 14", for dogs big to small. $5–$33, jollypets.com
