Can anyone recommend one? Our dogs hate their current ones.

If they dont like the one they have I would look at cooling mats or give them the option to lie on wet towels.

There is debate as to how effective cooling coats are.

We’ve just got the ruffwear one. Using it for the first time today but pleased with it so far!

Aldi have a cooling towel in at the moment. Soak in water, wring out and wrap around ddog. Seems canny!!

Thanks. I don't suppose you have any links?

We got a cheap cooling mat from B&M last summer that worked really well - you just need to make sure the dogs don't chew them.

Ddog won't tolerate any of them. Cold kitchen floor and a hosepipe when he ventures outside.

Electric fan?

I'd recommend an old towel from a charity shop, soaked in water & put on the ground.

We have cooling mats from B&M as well. I assume they like them as we put turn in different places away from the beds and they choose to go to them.

I also have a cooling scarf for one dog when she's really struggling - you soak it in cold water first. It certainly reduces the panting quickly.

Thanks. We have stone floor in a sheltered place so not so concerned about the cooling mat. They actively didn't want the coats put on yesterday (kept walking away from me, which isn't their norm).
