Living close to the ocean, my daily dog walks always take me seaside and with this beautifully warm summer weather I frequently see people boating by, many of them with their dogs on board.  I always feel a little jealous as in my mind there’s no better way to spend a hot summer day or lazy weekend than out cruising on the sparkling water. If you’re considering taking your dog along, please do remember to plan ahead. A while back we published an article entitled “Sailing Your Salty Dog” that contained a set of simple guidelines that you should definitely check out if you're planning to make Poochie a deck hand. It will certainly assist in making your boating trip with Poochie both safe and fun for everyone. Happy boating!
