Mucky pups returning from a day’s play outdoors are a destructive force in a clean, cream home. Before you curse and blast them with the hose, consider Kontenta’s ingenious, slightly more civilised solution. The Nat Garden shower connects to a simple sprinkler hose and functions exactly like its indoor cousin (minus the heat and steam, of course). Its wooden structure, which includes a handy little shelf for soap and shampoo, is easy to re-position if needed. Install outside the entrance to the boot room to minimise the mud trailing indoors. £334.
