Should I choose the 100 cm or 170 cm splash mat?
Choose 100 cm for patios, smaller yards, or one smaller dog. Choose 170 cm when a larger dog or a wider yard needs more room to step, turn, and chase the spray.
Does AquaPaw connect to a standard garden hose?
Yes. Connect the mat to a standard garden hose, begin with low pressure, and adjust gradually to change the spray height.
What surface should I place it on?
Use smooth grass or a clean, flat patio. Clear away sharp stones, rough concrete edges, sticks, and other objects that could damage the mat or make footing uncomfortable.
Is the mat chew-proof or puncture-proof?
No. It is made for normal supervised paw play and splashing. Remove it if your dog starts biting, dragging, or digging aggressively.
Can children and dogs use it together?
They can share a supervised shallow water activity with an adult present. Start with gentle pressure and stop the session if play becomes too rough or overexcited.
Does a dog splash pad prevent overheating or heatstroke?
No. It adds a water-play option for warm days, but dogs still need shade, fresh drinking water, rest breaks, indoor cooling, and veterinary care when signs of heat illness appear.
How do I set the water pressure?
Start low for small patios, cautious dogs, and first sessions. Raise the pressure gradually only when the space and your dog are comfortable with a taller spray.
How should I store it after play?
Disconnect the hose, drain the water, rinse away grass or grit, let both sides dry fully, and fold the mat flat for storage.
