Protecting your dog's eyes against scratches, wind, and irritants is important. During the summer, they are more likely to want to stick their heads out of the car windows and play in the sand at the beach. Brachycephalic breeds and mixes, like Pugs, French Bulldogs, and Boston Terriers, are more at risk for eye injuries because of the shape and position of their eyes. Now, you can help them look cool and keep their eyes safe from any damage.
If you are ready to fit your dog with some cool goggles or glasses this summer, there are a few tips to help you get started: - Get out the measuring tape. Make sure you know the exact size around their heads to find a pair with a proper fit.
- Chat with your vet if you are using eyewear for a medical condition. They always have great recommendations.
- Verify 100% UV protection if your dog is out in the sun often.
- Explore reputable brands like Doggles, Rex Specs, and NVTED.
| | Five Signs Your Dog Needs Sunscreen
Humans aren't the only ones who are affected by the sun. Dogs can also experience sunburns, rashes, allergic reactions to the sun, and even skin cancer. There are a few risk factors to know about regarding your dog needing sunscreen. See if your dog falls into any of these categories and consider stocking up on some SPF. - Short hair. If you shave your dog's hair or they naturally have a short coat, they will have less protection from the sun.
- Light-colored nose. A pink nose is at risk of sunburn, so a nose balm can help protect it.
- Bald spot. If your pup recently had a medical procedure that required shaving some hair, make sure you protect that hairless spot until it grows back.
- A lot of time outside. The more time your dog is in the sun, the more exposure they are receiving to the sun's rays. Apply sunscreen periodically and always after swimming.
- White coats. Dogs with lighter-colored hair need sunscreen and are more susceptible to skin conditions.
A survey in 2023 showed that only 15% of dog owners apply sunblock to their pups, so if this information surprised you, you are not alone. You can pick up some dog-safe sun protection at your pet store and make sure your pup is safe from the sun this summer. | | Spoil Your Pup and Save with Chewy.com

Arrow is an 11-year-old Havanese rescue pup living his best life in Florida. He enjoys traveling, especially on good road trips. Don't we all? We love that he's rocking these sunglasses.
His owner said he squints in the sun, but he smiled instantly when they put the glasses on him. Now, he taps his nose on them to let the humans know he wants help putting them on. | | | Image courtesy of a wonderful Daily Dig reader. | | Final Bark
