The UAE summer is upon us, but there’s still plenty of time to enjoy the great outdoors with your furry family member.
Laetitia Guidicelli, founder of Flopster (flopster.com) – an app that connects pet lovers with a choice of pet-friendly activities, tours and stays – has shared her top seven dog escapes and adventures with us below.
“In recent years, we have seen a real uptick in the number of dog owners in the emirates, and with our four-legged friends considered part of the family, more and more dog owners are looking for experiences where they can bring their pets along too,” said Laetitia.
01 Swim and hike at Wadi Showka
Wadi Showka is a popular location right now as water levels at the wadi are relatively high – so it’s definitely worth visiting before it becomes dry. The spot is suitable for beginners and the hiking conditions to the first pool are flat and easy for both humans and dogs.
Top tip: Arrive before 7 am to avoid the crowds.
02 Hike and kayak at Hatta Dam

HOW NOT TO LOSE YOUR COOL THIS SUMMER
This is a city that works hard, plays hard, but, on a boiling hot day, can feel like hard work. So look at this month’s magazine as a little cooling comfort pack to see you through the summer season. Let yourself be whisked off to our favourite indoor bars and hideaways – with AC, summery feels and maybe an ice-cold drink to keep you chill. Then dream of refreshing dishes to fill your belly. You’ve never had it so cool.
