Warm weather means lots of fun in the sun with your four-legged friend (dog beach! hiking! farmer's markets!). But you need to know how to keep your dog cool in the summer. After all, it can take mere minutes for your dog to go from comfortable to dangerously overheated.
When temps soar, it's good to have some supplies at the ready to help beat the heat. That’s why we’ve rounded up the best-selling and top-rated cooling products for dogs. From cooling mats and beds to water bowls and fountains, these products are Chewy customer approved.

Best Cooling Mat

Great cooling pad
Our dog loves this pad, he has two! He uses them all the time and he is a Samoyed so cooling is very important
-
Awesome!
I bought this for my 8 year old pit mix who has severe elbow dysplasia and loves to lay on the cold tile. I wanted something that would stay cool and be softer than the floor. At first he didn’t use it but after about one week of us moving around near him he began to use it and now, a month later, will go lay on it almost every time he wants to be on the floor. Totally worth it because you can put it anywhere, like in car, outside, a different room, and it really stays cool for a long time.

This pad really works!
My always hot, always panting 14 year old boy can finally get a good night's sleep! This pad stays cool and is fantastic for dogs who overheat easily. Highly recommend!
Best Dog Cooling Vest
-
Cooling Vest
This product has been a huge help this sweltering summer for our bully Momo. Very helpful product, totally worth it!!
-
WOW
It has been one day with this cooling vest and I can cry with relief! I have an 80lb, 13 year old golden retriever (bought the 3XL). We live in New England where the summers are hazy hot and humid. We put the vest on her for the first time today all panting and over heating has stopped. I’m sure there will still be days that she spends the day under the AC but she seems so much more RELAXED. so much relief I can’t even put it in words.

Cooper wouldn't take it off.
Heat here (Southern Texas) is grueling. 1st Time using this, he didn't want to take off. He's ½ Australian Shepperd and ½ Border Collie. He has that AS undercoat. During the summer, he'd actually rather stay inside; too hot. I don't understand how this keeps cool, but it does. He loves it and loves to go outside more. Do you have one for people? LOL
Best Dog Cooling Bandana
-
Our pup loves it
My dog loves wearing any bandana, so it wasn’t difficult to get her to wear it. This one is stitched really well and works as described. It even washes well (cold, hang dry) My lab/pit/? mix is 65lbs and the Large fits. Her black fur heats up quickly in the sun. The cooling effect worked very well around her neck, but seemed to keep her more comfortable everywhere. I love the smiley indicator so we know to re-wet it. To give you an idea, it is still damp after 40 minutes in 90F+ temps. I can’t wait to test it on longer walks.
Best Cooling Dog Bed
-
I raise German Shepherds, I buy a lot of beds
This is the best dog bed I have ever bought, I buy a lot I raise German Shepherds, this is very big and so cusioned extremely well made, I highly recommend this dog bed, I will be getting more.
-
Orthopedic cooling bed
I have purchased two of these beds for my boy with osteoarthritis. He loves his beds and is able to get up easily.
-
Orthopedic Bed
Our dogs (German Shepard and Mastiff) love this bed. We made a customize frame to keep it snug and from moving around. It is prefect to keep the hard pressure of their joints. I will for sure be purchasing again.
Best Elevated Dog Bed
-
Big enough for my Great Dane! It does make a stretchy noise like a new bed. Maybe needs broken in a bit. But he likes it. All that matters
-
We go camping a lot, and one of our friends has an elevated bed like this, and Marley laid on it one day, and we couldn't get him to get down, so we decided to order him one. After I got it set up in the house, he was hesitiant at first, but soon jumped on it. Can't wait to take camping so now he will now have to lay on the hard ground. Marley is almost 11 years old.
-
Only had them one day - but I love them!
My Danes are getting older and we wanted to add more comfort/make getting up a little easier for them. The set up wasn't terrible, instructions could have had a little more info, but it isn't hard to figure it out. My Danes immediately LOVED the cot and it fits their beds on top too for extra comfort! I haven't even had them 24hrs, so if the bed breaks/rips, I'll update the review - but I'm very happy so far!
Best Dog Pool
-
I love the ease of this pool!
This pool is great. Easy to set up, easy to empty and will withstand my dogs nails. They love it!
-
XLarge doggie pool
This is a nice quality made pool. You would need to be careful if your dog has sharp nails. Sets up easily and quickly. Plenty of room for my rottweilers and labs. Smaller dogs might need help in and out. Good "wading" pool to beat the heat.
-
Durable
I only filled it a little bit so I could see her reaction to it- she loves it! She is also a chewer and tried to chew the bottom- (I didn’t spread it all the way out) and it is very durable for her bites (that I yelled at her for) and her nails
Best Dog Water Bottle
-
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 I've found!!
I've tried a few products to give my dog water on walks/hikes, and never thought they worked great. Then I found this Kong H2O, and it's the best!! The clever design of the drinking receptacle being built onto the lid works well, the shape of the receptacle is really easy for my old lab to drink from, and on a long walk, if he doesn't finish the water in receptacle, I can just pour it back into the bottle rather than wasting it. Highly recommend!
-
I love it!
I'm a Cockapoo, 6 months old. Love having water along on outings with my fur mom, especially cold water -- Yum! Got to have a cold drink every day for the last two weeks and the water bottle is doing just fine. Mom put a strap thru place where clip was attached so she can carry it over her shoulder. Much easier to manage. When I'm a bit older maybe I can carry it . . . ?
Best Dog Water Bowl
-
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!
-
perfect!!!
I bought these as my doxie pup turned 1, and decided to upgrade his puppy bowls to his final big boy bowls. Hopefully he’ll have them for the majority of his life. They are on the larger side compared to a doxie, but I appreciate it especially for holding a good amount of water. They are beautiful, simple and very shiny. They fit my aesthetic very nicely, and they are easy to clean. I also bought a nice rounded mat to put under them as well. Would definitely recommend!
Best Dog Water Fountain
-
Great
This upgraded fountain design is great. It’s works great and will be easier to clean than the last one I had.
-
Quality item, excellent service from Chewy
The fountain is great. Well made, easy to put together and use. Runs quietly. I appreciated not having to constantly rinse and refill my dog’s water dish. Purchased for my dog with Cushing’s who is constantly drinking because of his disease. He is not doing well these days and thought it’d help. Unfortunately, he refuses to use it and went without water. Which isn’t good for any dog especially one with Cushing’s. So while it didn’t work for us it’s still a good item that might work great for a different dog. I think most dogs would probably really enjoy something like this and to have good quality water. I wanted to return it...
-
Very sad out come
I purchased this for my sister’s cats so they could experience this wonderful machine that I have for our cats. I have had several myself over the years. However, she has the same machine as well. Could you, please, e-mail me a return label at your earliest convenience? Love doing business with Chewy. We, also, had one of our dear cats pass away last evening after a long illness. His name was Archie and we are all devastated. He was cherished by our whole family and will be greatly missed, even by Beanie and Boo. Thank you for always being there for us. Happy Holidays.
Best Frozen Treat for Dogs
-
Easy to make, super yum!
PB flavor. Giving a few spoons a day as a special treat. She goes crazy once I take it out to thaw! It was very easy to make it, and I can tell she enjoys it. Will try carob flavor in the future!
-
Not a Drop Left
I got this for my dog, Marbles, for her birthday. She LOVED it! Now she sprints to the kitchen every time we open the freezer. Gonna have to get some more!
-
Ice Cream
This Peanut flavor Ice Cream is my Shih Tzu's favorite, he just loves it!! Easy to prepare, quick and easy...
