Returns & warranty
Can I return a product?
Yes, within 30 days. The item has to be unused and in its original packaging.
Start it yourself in our return portal — no account needed and nothing to print up front. Once the return is approved you receive a free return label by email.
Is there a warranty on your products?
Every SmartPaw product carries the statutory 2-year warranty under Belgian and EU consumer law, covering manufacturing and material defects.
Consumable parts such as filters and desiccant bags wear out with use and fall outside the warranty. Something wrong? Mail info@smartpaw.be and we will make it right.
Products
How quiet are your water fountains?
Under 23 dB. You will barely hear them running, even in a quiet bedroom at night.
How often should I replace the filter?
Every two to three weeks on average. How fast it clogs depends on how much your pet drinks and whether they come in from outside — a muddy dog gets through filters faster than an indoor cat. Refill packs sized for your model are in the shop.
How many filters does the FurVac have?
One. The HEPA filter sits underneath the dust container. Pull it out, rinse it under the tap, and let it dry completely — bone dry — before putting it back. Replace it when it stays grey after washing; how often depends on how much you use it.
What makes the FurVac different from other pet vacuums?
It is built for pet hair, not for floors. Gentle suction, anti-tangle blades, and six attachments so you can brush, clip and de-shed while the hair goes straight into the container instead of onto your couch.
Behaviour scan
What is the SmartPaw behaviour scan?
A free tool that maps your pet's personality and behavioural traits. Based on your answers we build a profile with practical tips.
How do I get the results?
You receive a personalised PDF report by email right after finishing the scan.
Is it scientifically based?
It builds on validated dog personality models (DPQ) and the results are interpreted by animal behaviour specialists.
Affiliate programme
How does the affiliate programme work?
Join for free, share your personal link, and earn commission on every sale through it. It works well for pet bloggers, trainers and creators.
Where do I sign up?
On our affiliate page, or just message us and we will set you up.
Payment & security
What payment methods do you accept?
Bancontact, iDEAL, Visa, Mastercard, Maestro, PayPal, Apple Pay, Shop Pay and Klarna. Everything runs through Shopify's secure checkout. Our ordering and payment page explains what each one means.
Is your website safe?
The whole store runs over SSL and we are GDPR-compliant. We never see or store your card details — the payment provider handles that.
