CoolerDog Dog Cooling Vest and Cooling Collar - Ice Vest for Dogs Medium (22" to 27" Girth)

It keeps falling off, and if I tighten it, my dog can’t go to its business. It’s uncomfortable.

My St. Bernard LOVES the dog park. We go everyday; sometimes multiple times. During the summer we’re only to stay at the park maybe 15-20 minutes before she’s too hot. I wanted something that would keep her cool but wasn’t wet. The number one reason I love this vest is that the ice packs are on their vital points. The vest fits perfect around her chest and holds the packs under her armpits and up her chest. The one around the neck is the perfect size to not be too wide. The vest itself is super lightweight and the Velcro on the inside keeps the ice packs from falling out. My St. Bernard galloping around the dog park had zero issues with the fit and I was easily able to readjust the sizing at the park. The ice packs last an adequate amount of time. The ones around the neck still had quite a bit of ice in them after 30 minutes. The ones around the chest had little ice but were still ice cold at 30 minutes. Given where the chest pieces rest, they’re going to melt faster. Especially when the dog is exercising. Still having some ice at 30 minutes is impressive to me. My dog didn’t get as hot, didn’t drool as much, and had a way shorter recovery time once we got home. Easily 5 stars and every giant breed owner should have it!

The medium fits my french bulldog perfectly, it arrived in time to get ready for our summer, very happy

This does the job. Good quality material. It is hot here and even walking at 7 am my cavapoo gets warm. This fits under his harness and keeps his neck and chest cool. Much less panting.

Spent years and $$$ trying to keep my 110 lb GSD-mix cool in No CA summers. The other type ,the sort where you wet it, wring it out and drape it across the dogs back, was useless- just a wet blanket. Doubtful it did anything to cool my RudiBoy. Finally here is something that makes sense, works great to cool him and to keep him cool, is very lightweight and breathable vs restricting air circulation and hey, it just plain works!!! I put one set of frozen cubes (grateful for the 2 sets of ice cube sheets provided!) into the harness whenever we go for a walk in any temp above 75°. Rudi has an exceptionally thick coat being an Eastern European Shepherd (GSD x Russian bear dog) so suffers in any warm temps. Of course if it's too warm we stay indoors. Walking the usual routes I noticed he doesn't overheat as easily with this harness, by far. An exceptionally noticeable difference. Upon returning home I remove the leash only, keeping this harness on while he cools down from the walk. The amount of time it takes til he stops panting has decreased dramatically! He seems so much more comfortable with this cool harness! This is a very intelligent design, placing the pockets for the various ice sheets just where they are needed, and no excess material where it's not. Here's the design: - The dark grey outer material is nylon, so lightweight and cool. Minimum coverage, no unnecessary material. - Inner pockets to hold the ice sheets are light grey/off-white mesh on the inner dog side, to allow max transfer of the cooling ice. The ice sheets keep nicely within their pockets by a strip of Velcro at top openings. So far, after a week's usage, seems to work great, no surprise openings. Overall the entire thing is quite impressive in how well it's constructed, how well it's sewn and made, down to the smallest details. - The ice sheets themselves are plastic sheets with square pockets filled with hygienic water. The longest, the chest sheet, is 2 x 6 squares, the 2 rib sheets are 2 x 4 squares and the collar 2@ 1 x 4 squares. Seems to do the trick! - The collar, which is more u shaped than round to fit better, can be used independent of the chest part. It's thin enough to keep on til it melts (even over an hour indoors after walks) with the dog's regular collar on. - The rest of the body harness attaches to the collar with a strap that runs from the chest part thru a simple plastic rectangular closure on the collar, turning over onto itself with Velcro. This is therefore adjustable to your dog's body length. There's plenty of leeway for adjustment and so far the Velcro seems sturdy and holding well. - The chest part is like the long part of an inverted "T", where the 2 shorter sides are furthest from the neck, wrapping over the ribs to close , with multiple Velcro bands, over his back. There are so many Velcro closures I'm sure they will fit any variety of dog breeds in girth. Like most German Shepherd varieties, Rudi has a broad chest at 37", yet the Velcro provides not only ample room to close the harness, but they are spaced in groups far enough apart that I can run his poop bag holder and even the length of the leash between them. Very useful, practical. I am not only satisfied with this cooling harness, I am totally impressed and my dog is far happier being cooler than either without, or with anything else we've tried. Highly, highly recommend!!!

Unfortunately, my dog passed away about two weeks after I got this product. So we only got to use it. One time during the summer and it was nice that it kept her nice and cool. It was a decent product.
