Summer will be here before we know it, which means it is time to hit the water in a pool float. But these days, showing up at the swimming pool with just any old innertube is a faux pas. I mean, from giant unicorns to pink convertibles to dill pickles, there are all sorts of pool floats now. Like, a lot. And we’ve written about them. A lot.
Anyway, the latest pool float might be the cutest one yet. That’s right, it’s a dachshund pool float! Because everyone loves wiener dogs.
The Coolest Dog At The Pool
Kool Pool’s Pool Pup Giant Premium Inflatable Dachshund Pool Float Mattress is for sale at Amazon from individual vendors. You can also find it on the Walmart site for about $55 a pup. At nearly 7-feet long, this inflatable doxie can hold up to 300 pounds.
I mean, how great is this?
The Fun Dog Days Of Summer
The dog days of summer may not have the best reputation — hot, humid and just plain gross sometimes. However, once you take a look at this big guy floating along, you might rethink that opinion.
Good boy, puppy! You are definitely man’s best friend!
The Perfect Poolside Pal
“This ever-smiling dachshund will bring you years of joy and companionship,” the product description reads on Walmart.com. “Need someone to hold your drink at the pool? He’s got ya. Need someone to keep you afloat? Got ya there, too! Best of all he doesn’t need to be walked or fed. People will want to pet him but that’s up to you.”
This wiener dog even has a name: Link. And while you could get a pool float that is shaped like an inflatable hunk, we all know Link is the real good boy!
But, if you’re looking for some more fun for your summer swimming days, here’s a few other pool float options to consider.
Donut Float
As you can see, this floating donut looks almost good enough to take a bite out of before tossing it in the water.
Pizza Float
A 6-foot floating piece of pizza? That sounds like a slice of heaven! And, you can put a bunch of them together to make an entire floating pie!
WOW Octo Island Six-Person Float
This large floating lounge is ideal for playing games while you float the day away. It features a large table, a central cooler that holds up to 24 cans of beverages and backrests for added comfort. It fits six people, but will also stay stable (and upright!) with only one person sitting at it.
Tahiti Island With Cooler Float
This floating island holds seven people and offers eight cupholders (you know, in case someone onboard happens to be double-fisting!). It also features two built-in coolers to keep all your necessary beverages cold. Plus, with a built-in platform and two dedicated lounge seats, this float looks relaxation ready.
Pool Bar Float
If food or animal floats aren’t your thing, and you’re looking to satisfy your thirst, then you might want to pick up this amazing pool bar float. You and three of your best buddies can lounge around in the AhhQua Bar, which has four chairs, a built-in cooler and, of course, cup holders!
