Indie Boho dog (and cat!) waterproof padded travel mats are a year-round essential with so many practical uses.  Here we list the top 15 ways you will benefit from having a travel mat, including training tips from Ryan Tate, Founder of the Animal Training Academy. 

In this list we discuss: confining your dogs space while making them feel ultra comfortable at a cafe, restaurant, on a plane or in the office; getting them started early with a mat at puppy school; making them feel "at home" at doggy daycare, their sitters / friends place, while on holidays or camping; and protecting your car or designer living room rug from mess! 

Sunshine Coast Animal Refuge (SCARS) has been operating since 1979 – that’s 40 years this year! The shelter is well known to our local community and has made an incredible impact, rescuing and re-homing approximately 40,000 dogs and cats in that time. As a not-for-profit charitable organisation SCARS does not receive any government funding; instead they rely heavily on public donations, volunteers and the businesses that support them. We are so proud to have an animal refuge of this scale in our community and that is why they are our chosen charity to support.
