HELP KEEP YOUR DOG COOL IN YOUR DISCOVERY
Travelling with your dog in your Discovery is an adventure in itself. But when the temperature rises, it’s essential to keep your furry friend cool, comfortable and safe. Here’s how you can make every journey in your Discovery a joy for your dog, even when it’s hot.
AIR CONDITIONING YOUR BEST FRIEND
While it’s tempting to let your dog stick their head out the window, it’s not the safest or most effective way to cool them down. Instead, rely on your Discovery’s advanced air conditioning. It provides a steady, cool airflow that keeps your dog comfortable, even on the hottest days.
For dogs travelling in the boot, consider using a cooling mat to keep them comfortable. Pair it with a ventilated dog guard to maintain airflow throughout the cabin.
HYDRATION IS KEY
Your dog won’t tell you when they’re thirsty, so it’s up to you to plan ahead. Pack a collapsible water bowl and make regular stops during. Your Discovery’s boot is perfect for storing all your dog essentials, including a water bottle and snacks.
Pro tip: Freeze a fillable rubber dog toy with your dog’s favourite treat. It’s a refreshing way to keep them cool and entertained on the go.
TRAVEL SMART: TIMING IS EVERYTHING
Driving during the cooler parts of the day, like early morning or late evening, is not only more comfortable for your dog but also makes for a smoother journey. Your Discovery’s smooth ride and quiet cabin will help keep your dog calm and relaxed.
SAFETY FIRST
Just as you wouldn’t drive without a seatbelt, your dog should always be secured. Use a crash-tested dog harness or a ventilated crate to keep them safe in case of sudden braking. Your Discovery’s versatile interior makes it easy to install these accessories, ensuring your dog travels securely.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
If you notice signs of heatstroke – excessive panting, drooling, or loss of coordination – act quickly. Move your dog to a shaded area, offer small amounts of cool water, and wrap them in a damp towel. If symptoms persist, contact your vet urgently.
