Dog Days of Summer Pet Photo Contest

Snoozer Dog Days Of Summer Photo Contest

Once again it has been another hot summer, and we are now in the middle of what is called the “Dog Days of Summer”. Have you ever wondered where that saying comes from? Well, we have too, so we’d like to offer you a brief history of how the phrase “Dog Days of Summer” originated, along with announcing the Snoozer Pet Products Dog Days of Summer Pet Photo Contest, where you could win an Outlast® heated and cooled dog bed!

 The phrase began with the Romans, who referred to the dog days as " dies caniculares". This time of the year was associated with hot weather, which was believed to be caused by the star, Sirius. And the star, Sirius, was referred to as the "Dog Star" because it is the brightest star among the constellation Canis Major, the Large Dog.

 During ancient Roman times, the Dog Days of Summer lasted from July 24th to August 24th, or alternatively, July 23rd through August 23rd. For many European cultures like the French, English, and German, this time period on the calendar is still referred to as the Dog Days of Summer.

 The Farmer's Almanac lists a slightly different time frame, and records the timing of the Dog Days of Summer as the 40 days that begin on July 3rd and end on August 11th. This timing also has its roots from celestial bodies, and coincides with the ancient heliacal (at sunrise) rising of the Dog Star, Sirius.

 While the Dog Days are starting to wind down, many of us enjoyed some time outdoors with our pets despite the heat, and have some great pictures to remind us of our summer fun. Snoozer is holding a Dog Days of Summer Pet Photo Contest, where the winner will get an Outlast® heated and cooled Pet Bed. The Outlast Dog bed uses Outlast ® technology that proactively responds to the changes in your pet’s skin temperature. Originally developed for NASA, this patented heat management technology absorbs excess heat and stores it until there is a change in temperature, then releases it as needed. In our Snoozer Outlast pet bedding, Outlast ® technology helps manage the buildup of heat by mitigating temperature swings to balance temperature, and keeping your pets not too hot, not too cold ®.


The rules for the Dog Days of Summer Pet Photo Contest are quite simple.

Dog Car Seats, Should It Be A Law To Buckle Up Your Pet?

We as drivers understand the importance of wearing a seat belt while driving, and currently just about every in the United States requires you have it on when driving. Why is it important to wear a seat belt? If a car is moving down the road at 50 mph hits another car or object, your automobile will stop moving forward but everything inside unrestrained will continue moving in the same direction at 50 mph. The result is equivalent to falling out of an 8 story window.

In recent news, there are a number of other automobile safety concerns that have been making headlines. The two biggest driving safety concerns headlines have been about the dangers of talking on a cell phone and texting while driving. A huge spotlight has been put on these driving hazards and even companies and celebrities such as Nationwide and Oprah have campaigns warning people of these dangers about texting while driving. Now there is a new report and study conducted by AAA that illustrates a new driving danger that should concern all pet owners.

Click it or ticket is a catchy phrase that is used to remind us to fasten our seatbelts when we get in our cars, but that is only for humans, and as pet owners know that is not always the only occupants in our cars. AAA knows this and has conducted a study that warns us of the dangers when our four legged friends are along for a ride. AAA is reporting that driving with pets is a dangerous distraction if they are unrestrained. Recent research data supports the fact that having an unrestrained pet in the car can be as dangerous as texting or talking on the phone while driving. Not only was this report released by AAA but the story was picked up and reported on by CBS news along with a video.

Thankfully there is a solution that can keep you and your pet’s safe while riding in the care. Snoozer Pet Products produces a line of pet car seats that have been developed over the past 20 years.
