5.0 out of 5 starsWorks for my dog
Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2017
I bought this for my dog to keep her cool on a summer day (if your dog has sharp nails or scratches at things, this may not work for your pooch). What I like is that I could chose to inflate the bottom (where the water goes) or not. This is what my pup's nails could scratch/pop, so I like that I could not inflate it if I did not want to. I did inflate it to try, and I liked that the bottom has little divots in it, so the water first pools in those. I just filled water in to make a thin layer along the bottom so she could lay down or sit to cool down. She doesn't like baths, so I didn't want to fill it too much.
This is very cute and has 5 ports to fill it in. You do NOT want to do it without a machine, because it requires a lot of air. I used a pump I had from an air mattress. This company actually made an air matress I purchased, so I knew it would be well-made (and it was!).
Overall, I am pleased with this. It provides about 3/4 of shade and 1/4 of sunlight. It looks like the product image and serves it's purpose. Dog isn't entirely sure how to feel about it, but she does tolerate it. She doesn't want to jump out so I do have to push down on the mouth for her to get out, but she could crawl out if she wanted to (this may be good for toddlers as they can't sneak out). Happy overall!
