Best Cooling Mat
-
Perfect for camping
Just used for our second camping season. Was perfect both summers, providing a cool spot for her to lay on a hot afternoon! Worth the cost if you want your pup to be comfortable in hot weather.
-
Fantastic cooling mat!!
In the summer we put this mat right over his bed and he sleeps on it or just cools off on it. He loves it!

My dog loves them
Have two now but have purchased four in total. The stuff inside will become hard after a couple of years. But maybe that’s because I freeze refrigerate or freeze them. My dog has a very thick double coat and in her old age she doesn’t tolerate the summer heat any more. During summer we rotate them from the fridge or freezer (they get really nice and cold but not frozen solid. This has become such a routine at bed time that she won’t go upstairs unless I take one out of the freezer. She makes a beeline for it every time and plops down. They don’t stay cold for too Long but it helps her get to sleep. During fall and winter we just lay...
Best Dog Cooling Vest
-
cooling vest
This fit our boy just about perfectly. Just wet it, wring most of the water out, and put it on them. After being outside in Oklahoma's 105-degree heat for a bit, his back and chest were cool to the touch. It works as long as it is damp. I don't recommend going out in that heat for any length of time with a dog but with this vest it is possible.
-
Works well
This vest is simple to get ready to use, easy to put on my dog, and cools well. It is also attactive.
-
bEST PURCHASE!
5 plus stars! Spirit loves the vest. It keeps him cool during his walk and cools him down after his walk. Easy to wear and take care of the material Best purchase ever! I have suggested it to my daughter for her training class.
Best Dog Cooling Bandana
-
cooling dog bandana
truly worth every penny, the Canada Pooch cooling dog bandana helps my pup survive the hot, humid days in Jersey and is still able to enjoy long walks
-
Love these cooling bandanas !
I love that these cooling bsndanas snap ! The small fit my 19 pound dog papaya perfectly . Just wet , wring and wear! The brand is a bit pricy but these are worth it. Bought the cooling popsicle vest also Hot in California and we have no air conditioning. These work well to cool my dog off.
-
My dog loves his bandana all you do is get it wet and it starts cooling the water itself if you put it in the freezer with I definitely recommend you just need to loosen it up and put it on and it’ll keep a good cool temp and it never gets too cold I love the surprise of the smiley faces
Best Cooling Dog Bed
-
Archer loves it!
The first night didn’t go so well. Archer cried almost all night the first night with the bed in his crate. I was afraid it was going to be a waste, but I took the bed out and laid it one the floor for him to lay on outside of his crate and then leaned up next to his crate outside the crate the next night. The 3rd night I put it back in his crate and he went right in and laid down on the bed. Archer loves it now. It’s our routine that I give him a treat when he goes in his crate, and he used to wait standing just inside the door for his treat. Now he immediately lays down on his bed and doesn’t seem to care about the treat because he...

The cooling top! Hot natured dog loves it!
My mini Aussie is not so mini and loves to stretch out. Plus she is going on 10 yrs old and her hips bother her. The size, quality of the cover, thickness and not just some squishy mattress! Very firm and cushiony! She loves it and the cooling pat gives her options
-
Great size and cushion
Wish it could be a little longer but otherwise great bed, very cushioned and love the cover that you can take on and off to wash it.
Best Elevated Dog Bed
-
Ruby Loves it!
We weren't sure if she would go for it and prefer it over the cushy sofa type bed she has. But she does and loves to be able to stretch out lengthwise .
-
Easy assembly and sturdy
We use this sturdy cot at camp for our pup. Very easy assembly and disassembly for travel. Love the mesh in the middle, prevents sweating.
-
Made dog happy
Buddy likes to relax in the Lani. I just toss his fur blanket on top of this and he will lay down and relax. Sometimes he just wants to watch the birds. It has to have the blanket on top before he will use it. I think the fabric it's made of tugs his hairs.
Best Dog Pool
-
so far so good
holds shape well even when empty. dogs haven't ripped it with their claws. I did put a pad underneath it since it's sitting on a brick patio.
-
Functions.
It’s great. I didn’t need one this big. My dogs love rivers and lakes but they were hesitant about the pool. I put my camp chair in and then the dogs follow me in. I should have gotten half the size. Easy to clean and put away.
-
Dog Pool is Perfect !
Easy fold out pool & filled with water hose & took like 15 mins & had hours of fun every day all summer with dogs & kiddos ! Best money spent all year !
Best Dog Water Bottle
-
Best dog water bottle I have ever used.
Big capacity and cup is big enough for dog to drink easily. The stainless steel interior is much more durable than plastic and easier to clean. Love this bottle!
-
Best thing since Sliced Bread!
We live in a suburb of Phoenix & this is the best! The stainless steel interior with ice & water keeps my pup's water cold for hours. The design is awesome! Every time she drinks water, everyone wants to know where I got it. Then I get to boast about Chewy & their World Class service.
-
Smart product
This water bottle with drinking lid is the best. The pups can drink easily from the smart lid/cup design and the bottle holds plenty of water for a long walk. Love it and it’s snazzy because the bottle is orange and the lid black!!!
Best Dog Water Bowl
-
Perfect bowl for my dog and me.
The depth and weight of this bowl is terrific for feeding my 75 pound Pittie. Also, and just as important, the non-skid bottom is most helpful. It keeps my boy from having to "chase" his bowl around and me from having to hold it still for him.
-
Perfect
Exactly what I wanted. Beautiful, easy to clean, doesn’t move around (though I also have it on a silicone mat). Our new giant labradoodle rescue pup loves it.
-
Very nice bowl
Ordered 2 of these for my daughter's dog, they are great quality and perfect size for a medium size pup (35-40 lbs). Love the non-skid feature and cleaning is a breeze!
Best Dog Water Fountain
-
Great little fountain.
I got this for my pug because she likes to drink running water. I have had for several months now and it still works great.
-
Water fountain
My kitties love the running water. Definitely feel like they drink more water using the fountain than they would from a standing bowl of water.
-
large capacity
My cats love it and I love it because I only have fill it once a day. One of my cats loved to drag the water bowel around once it got half full. He doesn't mess with this one. He loves drinking from this one.
Best Frozen Treat for Dogs
-
Yummy
This is the second time I’ve gotten this pup cream for our Gigi. First time was the birthday cake flavor and this time the peanut butter!! She loved both and could never get enough (of what we limited her) fast enough ! Just a great treat for our furbabies!!
-
Porter the dobie loves peanut butter ice cream!!
I think Porter tried all of the other ice cream but he loves peanut butter.He likes it in treats, he likes it in his morning food & he could eat peanut butter all day long!
-
10/10!!
My dog absolutely loves this ice cream! My dog has a very sensitive stomach and this product doesn’t brother him at all! I will definitely be buying the other flavors!!
