Kells xx Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 a paddling pool is easier, ice cubes in their water and plenty of shade. also some of us put a wet towel in the freezer till its really cold and then put that under their bed to lie on. i have looked at cooling jackets and im not convinced hope this helps kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparks Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 you could look here - cooling jacket i have never used them personally, like others have said i just use the small paddling pool to keep him cool.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kells xx Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 if your dog is ok then take a spray bottle and spritz your dog! we do 10 mins in the shade for 15 mins of walking in the heat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim&sky Posted June 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 thanks guys but in my way of thinking the jacket might just be what im looking for as i do take my dogs out for long walks and work them , as for the pool allready do and as i do the spray ......all well as a floor fan ...jesus she lives a life of luxury lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 if you're working them, you may need to look at the times you go out in the morning - it was 17 degrees at 9am here today - wayyyyy too hot to run them. You may need to go late at night or early hours of the morning, 5 - 6am Cathy on here posted a vid up of her boy with a cooling collar on she found having it at the top of the neck so the water dripped down was best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
