Our 'Pup' Tents Are Perfect For Canine Camping Trips

The Dog Bag Pet Tent comes in three sizes.

Do you want to take your dog camping with you, but your tent is too small to hold them and you?

Consider getting a “pup” tent designed just for dogs from the Posh Puppy Boutique. We have several options to select from depending if your trip is a day dash to the beach or several days under the trees.

The Tiny House Tent ($55) is a folding, portable dog house. It is available with or without a zippered door.

Consider the K-9 Koolee ™ Portable Pet Cooling Bed ($140) for longer periods away from home, like car camping trips and all-day beach outings. Available in sizes for dogs up to 55 pounds, and dogs weighing more than that, the system includes a core pad containing eight individual cooling pouches. A folding tent then provides sun protection, letting your dog have fun without getting burned.

The Dog-Bag Pet Tent ($165) has a strong pop-up frame with integrated steel loops. Designed to be portable, it fits in its own back pack, which is included. Best of all, it comes in three sizes to fit dogs from small guys like Pugs to bigger buddies like Siberian Huskies and Rottweilers.

The Sun, Rain and Snow Tent For Dogs ($160) also comes in three sizes. This bottom-less design works with the dog bag (above, not included) system. Just stick the dog bag inside and your pet is protected from the elements such as the sun or summer storms.

The Umbra Pet Tent works well for car camping, too.

Our Umbra Pet Tent ($160) takes the Dog Bag to a new level. Combining a portable pet house, car containment system (for SUV’s) and outdoor tent in one, it pops up in seconds. Carried in a messenger-style bag, it has claw-proof windows and small front porch. Best of all, it comes in small, medium and large sizes.

This carrier doubles as a compact pet tent.

The Ultimate Backpack Pet Carrier ($105) is meant to help you carry your pet on hikes.

Protect Your Pup From The Summer Sun

Snout soother contains sunblock and other ingredients.

Many people like taking their dogs on summer trips, including treks to the lake, river or ocean. What they don’t realize is too much sun can hurt their dogs.

The Posh Puppy Boutique has four grooming products that contain pet-approved sunscreen. We also sell a wide selection of hats, rash guards—and Doggles— to protect your dog’s eyes from harmful UV rays, rays that can cause cataracts in dogs just as they do in humans.

Pet Sunscreen ($16) has a sun protection factor (SPF) rating of 15. This non oily, non-irritating and silicone free product can be safely sprayed on your dog’s skin or coat. It’s also water soluble, so a quick rinse removes it.

Sun Block Spray for Dogs ($22) is designed to protect light colored dogs and those with thin coats from UV rays. Darker dogs will find their coats do not fade as quickly.

Flea the Scene is perfect for outdoor trips.

Flea the Scene ($19) is designed to take the sting out of insect bites, especially those nasty fleas that get past your regular protection. It also soothes the skin with Indian Frankincense and aloe vera while adding an all-natural sunscreen. Your dog gets double protection.

Natural Dog Snout Soother ($19) nourishes, moisturizes and heals your pet’s delicate nose tissues. These tissues get damaged by exposure to the sun and wind—like when your dog sticks its head out the car window. This product helps soothe those irritations while adding sunscreen as well.

Protect your dog’s delicate eyes with a visor and their body with a lightweight rashguard shirt, both of which have SPF ratings of 50 or more. We sell both in many bright colors, all of which are also fast drying.

Girl dogs will look very feminine in our Floral Stamp Pink Rashguard Shirt ($29) and matching visor ($18). Shirts are made from 80/20 nylon/lycra fabrics for a great look that protects your pet all day long. Our 17 other colorful patterns include Tiki Cobalt($29), Plumeria Purple ($29) and others. Sizes range from extra small to 5 XL for the biggest dogs.

These visors shade your dog's delicate eyes from the sun.

The visors—like the Tuga Pink ($18) model—also have SPF 50-plus ratings. They fit over your dog’s ears, wrap around their foreheads and shade their eyes. A chin strap keeps them secure. Sizes range from extra-small to extra-large.

Colorful, lightweight Rashguard shirts protect your pet from the sun.

Keep Your Pet Cool During The Hot Months

Compact, simple and affordable, the Hand-Drink Mini is essential for dog owners.

Great outfits from the Posh Puppy Boutique will make your pet look smokin’ hot during the summer months but it’s vital to help them stay cool, no matter how good they look.

One of the least expensive, simplest products you can buy is also one of the most essential: A Handi-Drink Mini ($12). Available in blue, pink and purple, they help keep your pet hydrated, even when you are on the go. A rubber flow control valve on the included 9-ounce water bottle lets water flow into the bowl, which also acts as a cover. These are small enough to fit virtually anywhere, so keep one in each vehicle for ready use. Your pet will love you for it.

The Cool Bed III is tough, soft and keeps your pets cool on scorching hot days.

Hot days can mean hot times for your crate-bound pet. Keep them cool, both at home and when on the road, with our Cool Bed III ($65). Essentially a water and air bed, no electricity is required for use. It is perfect for camping trips and family vacations. Simply add cold water, adjust the firmness using the air valve and let your precious, precocious pup relax. Smalls measure 17 by 14 inches, mediums are 22 by 32 inches and larges are 32 by 44 inches. Color choices are blue or grey.

Another similar way is with a SIONNE Shiny Cool Mat ($60) from designer Puppy Angel. Measuring about 24 by 16 inches by 1 inch thick, it is coated with a water-resistant fabric that your pet will enjoy sleeping on.

Cool Vests use evaporation and special fabrics to keep your  smaller dog comfortable.

Keep your active smaller pet cool, even on hikes on hot days with our Cool Vest ($72). Simply soak the vest in water and let evaporation keep your hot dog cool. Laminated on the inside, your dog will not get wet nor will this vest dry out as quickly as a T-shirt. Chemical gel-free, it is designed for smaller dogs only.

Three toys will also help your puppy, adult or senior dog cool down: the Hydro Ball ($15), Hydro Bone ($15) and Hydro Ring ($15). Each toy has a tough exterior, with protrusions to help with puppy teething. What makes them special is a foam core that holds liquids, such as water. Special holes release the liquid when your dog squeezes the toy.

Another great way to cool your pooch is with our Kool Dog Cooler Bowl ($38). Fill the bottom compartment with ice and the top compartment with water. When you run out of water, turn it upside down and the melted ice fills the top bowl. Made in the USA, this is a perfect pet accessory for a July 4 picnic.

These sun visor hats shade your dog's eyes. They come in several colors.

Help shade your dog’s sensitive eyes from the sun with our Tuga Pink Sun Protective Dog Visor Hats ($18). Designed to withstand wind, they are soft and comfortable for dogs, fitting over the ears and wrapping around the forehead with a brim to shade their eyes. They have a UPF rating of 50, keeping out 97.5 percent of the UV rays. Sizes range from extra-small to extra-large. To cool your dog, simply dip the hat in cold water before attaching it. Several other color choices are also available.

Car Rides Can Be Safe, Stylish For Dogs

This raised car seat safely holds dogs up to 35 pounds.

Dogs are part of my family, just as they are of yours. Taking a car trip means gathering our human gear then spending more time making sure our dogs are safe, secure, comfortable and best of all, travelling in style.

Here at the Posh Puppy Boutique, we can’t pack your car but we can take care of your pets.

Safety and security starts by securing our dogs—or yours—with a macho harness or colorful harness dress.

The next step is making sure the dogs have a great view and a secure ride. One colorful way to do that is with a Large Lookout II Safety Car Seat ($180).

This zip line and leash combo keep your dog safe while letting them roam.

The zip line runs between any two fixed points inside your car, truck or SUV. The supplied leash—connected to your dog’s harness—gives them the ability to move around while keeping them safe. It also prevents them from jumping out of the car.

A steel frame and interior tether protect your precious pup.

Smaller dogs may prefer the security of a carrier, which also works well when taking your dog from the car to a hotel or house. For those pups, consider the Kurgo Wonder Carrier ($100). This carrier, which also works for many airlines, holds dogs (or cats) up to 12 pounds). It is made with luggage grade polyester and has a waterproof rubber bottom. The padded interior and large mesh windows cover a steel frame while an interior tether keeps your precious cargo secure.

Fly Your Pets in Comfort and Style

The Roundabout Tote is designed for dogs up to 16 pounds.

Vacation season is upon us, which means some pets are flying with their owners to destinations near and far. If this sounds like you and your pet, let them travel in comfort and style with products from the Posh Puppy Boutique.

Your first—and most vital—step is taking your pet to its veterinarian at least two weeks before going on a trip. Be sure your pet’s vaccinations are current. Have at least three paper copies: one that travels with your pet, one you keep with you and a third (and maybe having electronic copies where you have easy access to them) in your luggage. This ensures the least amount of problems. Also be sure your pet is healthy enough to withstand the rigors of travel in an airline hold that may be pressured at an elevation of 5,000 feet, which is the pressure setting for passenger cabins.

In addition, check with your airline to ensure there are no sudden changes in its pets policy. That phrase, “subject to change without notice” can devastate your travel plans.

If you are taking your pet on the plane with you, bring a muzzle, even if your pet is safely secured in a carrier. This eliminates barking issues and inquisitive fingers from young children being suddenly stuck within reach.

Also measure your pet’s container when fully loaded to ensure it fits in the space allotted.

These first few carriers are designed for air travel by Pet Flys and Carriers.

One perfect tote for people taking their pets onboard with them is the Roundabout Tote ($105), which comes in black, tan and red. Designed for dogs weighing 2-16 pounds, this pocket-less design includes a soft cuddle mat, sparkle bear key chain, safety chain, animal print scarf and small shuttle purse. The carrier weighs 1.5 pounds empty and its interior can be cleaned with disinfectant wipes.

The Butterfly Carrier adds color, style and a side entrance flap.

Our Butterfly Carrier ($145) comes in mini (up to 4 pounds), small (up to 11 pounds) and super (up to 16 pounds) sizes. It is approved for in cabin travel by most major airlines. It has two interchangeable handles, a peek-a-boo roll up flap, a stainless steel wire window, fur-lined removable bottom insert, blanket and fur-lined side entrance. It also buckles easily into a car for transport to and from the airport.

The Zebra Bronze Dog Carrier can hold two tiny dogs.

The Zebra Bronze Metallic Dog Carrier ($160) can hold up to two small dogs comfortably. The black faux leather features a metallic zebra design with three metal zippered windows and 12 air vents, two large snap pockets and a larger zippered pouch. Its interior has a safety chain and removable pad.

Teafco carriers have removable padding on the bottom and sides.

For a different design, consider a Teafco Aero-Pet Airline Approved Small Carrier ($175) or Large Carrier ($190). These carriers have removable waterproof padding on the bottom and sides, are ultra lightweight (3.5 pounds), have six dual layer mesh windows on all sides for ventilation and security, padded handles and exceed the Transportation Security Administration requirements.

Teafco's small orange carrier.

These are just a few of our many pet carriers designed for air travel.
