How Dog Cooling Products Work

At Canada Pooch, our dog cooling products, such as cooling mats, vests, and harnesses, work through the principles of evaporation to dissipate heat away from the dog's body, helping to lower their body temperature in warm conditions. Evaporative cooling products need to be moistened with water; as the water evaporates, it draws heat from the dog's body, creating a cooling effect.

How To Keep Your Dog Cool In The Summer Heat

Keeping your dog cool in the summer heat involves several strategies to prevent overheating. Ensure they have access to shade and fresh, cool water at all times. You may also use cooling products like mats, vests, or even a cooling station for them to splash in. Indoors, keep the air conditioning on or use fans to help circulate cooler air. Avoid exercising your dog during the hottest parts of the day; opt for morning or evening walks when it's cooler. You can also offer your dog frozen treats or use damp towels for them to lie on. These methods help manage your dog's body temperature, ensuring they stay comfortable and healthy during the hot summer months.
