Summer, sunshine and long days outdoors – for many dogs, the warmer months are the best time of the year. Whether in the garden, on the patio, whilst camping or on holiday: your four-legged friend wants to enjoy their time outside. At the same time, it’s important to provide them with a sheltered place to retreat to at all times.
The PETY playpen offers your dog a safe and comfortable space that you can set up wherever you happen to be. With the right accessories, the playpen can be adapted even better to your dog’s needs in summer.
The PETY silver cover, in particular, can be a practical addition on sunny days. It reflects some of the sun’s rays and creates a sheltered area within the playpen.
In this article, you’ll find out how to make the most of the PETY run in summer and which accessories are particularly suitable for hot and sunny days.
Why a sheltered retreat is important in summer
High temperatures can quickly become stressful for dogs. Whilst we humans can cope by wearing light clothing, seeking shade and drinking cold drinks, dogs have far fewer ways of regulating their body temperature.
That’s why, on warm days, you should always give your dog the chance to retreat independently to a sheltered and, if possible, comfortable spot.
A suitable retreat should:
- ☀️ provide protection from direct sunlight
- 💧 allow access to fresh water
- 🌬️ offer good air circulation
- 🐶 provide enough space to lie down and relax
- 🏡 give your dog a sense of security and tranquillity
This is exactly where the PETY playpen comes in. Thanks to its portable design, you can set it up flexibly in the garden, on the patio or whilst out and about.
The PETY playpen in summer: flexible and quick to set up
A major advantage of the PETY playpen is its flexibility. In summer, the ideal location changes depending on the time of day and the amount of sunlight. Whilst a spot on the patio might be pleasant in the morning, a shadier area in the garden may be more suitable in the afternoon.
Thanks to its quick assembly and dismantling, you can easily set up the PETY playpen wherever your dog needs a safe space at that moment.
In the garden
In the garden, the PETY playpen offers your dog a clearly defined area where they can relax and observe their surroundings.
On the terrace
The playpen can also be set up quickly on the terrace. This allows you to keep your dog close by whilst giving them their own space.
When camping
A portable retreat is particularly handy when camping. The PETY playpen can be set up quickly and used in front of a motorhome, caravan or tent.
On holiday
Even in holiday homes or other accommodation, the playpen provides a familiar space where your dog can retreat.

The PETY Silver Cover – extra protection on sunny days
On particularly sunny days, an extra cover can be a useful addition to the playpen.
The PETY Silver Cover has been specially designed to reflect some of the sun’s rays and provide your dog with a sheltered area inside the playpen.
The reflective surface is what sets it apart from a standard cover.
What makes the Silver Cover special?
☀️ Reflective surface
The silver surface reflects some of the incoming sunlight. This reduces direct sunlight on the covered area.
🏡 More shade in the run
The cover creates an additional sheltered area where your dog can escape the direct sun.
🌬️ Combination with the mesh material
The PETY dog run features breathable mesh panels. When combined with the silver cover, this creates a sheltered area, whilst the sides continue to allow for good air circulation.
Important: Even with the cover fitted, the dog run should always be placed in a suitable, preferably shaded location. The silver cover is no substitute for an adequate supply of water or proper temperature control.

Does the silver cover protect my dog from the heat?
