megan_ Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Before I close my second free shipping order, does anyone have feedback on these? http://www.cleanrun.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=2819 My boy doesn't like the heat but he doesn't like cold/wet things against his skin either (ruling out a cool coat). I've also looked at these: http://www.cleanrun.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=product.display&Product_ID=564 Any feedback appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubyStar Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 (edited) From a quick glance at the description, these brand of crate covers are made out of the same fabric as their cool coats (please correct me if I'm wrong). If that is the case, I wouldn't recommend them. When wetting them, they dry pretty quickly, and the fabric dry to me would be useless as a cooling object around a crate. Pretty pricey for something that wouldn't work too well. You're better off with a Cool Puppy Shade Cloth Panel, they apparently work really well to block the heat. I have one in my cart currently, but only getting the smallest size and thinking maybe I should get a bigger one! I'm getting one to put over my car windscreen at trials to keep the heat out of the car where the dogs usually are for trials Edited November 21, 2011 by RubyStar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megan_ Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 thanks - I have both in my cart. I'll get rid of the more expensive one if it isn't that good. The Cool Puppy Shade ones are a great price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubyStar Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 I like the cool coats because they are cheap, lightweight and breathable, but downside is they dry too quickly. The same fabric as a crate cover, I just can't see how it work would, personally Yep the other one is probably the better choice and I think I'll just get the small, it's still a decent size for $25!!

The Spotted Devil Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Check out the Chilly Buddy coat - doesn't need to be wet to be effective. I have 2 on order after rave reviews by a DOLer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
