Kritter Planet Waterproof Cooling Dog Mat, Soft Cooling Pet Blanket for Summer, Lightweight Cooling Outdoor Mat, Reversible Furniture Cover Couch ...

I really don't know how it works. The chill side stays cool. I used it one night instead of letting my dogs have it, however I got it for them and they love it.

I have two small Cairn terriers that I keep their hair cut a bit shorter in the summer. They might be cute, but they are not the smartest of dogs. I will find them laying outside in the sun panting like crazy. I got this cooling mat to lay on top of one of the beds I have scattered throughout the house. The mat has two sides with a different material on each side. One side is fuzzier, while the other side is silkier. If you want your fur baby to be cooler, be sure to put the silkier side up. When I first started putting the mat on top of the bed, they did their typical "nest-making" which would cause the mat to fall to the side. At this point, both dogs enjoy laying on the mat during one of their many naps during the day. I believe they are enjoying the coolness the mat provides. I really have no idea since both still have quite a bit of hair on their bodies. But I feel better trying to provide the best comfort that I can for them. My plan is to turn the mat over when we get cooler temperatures in the late fall. The cooling mat is very well made with no issues with the material or the sewing.

These are quality made items; I purchased two - a smaller and a larger one. They are not what I expected - Ive had dogs my entire life & purchased many bed/sofa cooling items. I thought from the pics & descriptions these would have more substance. They are really very thin; I dont see how they are going to be cooling , but Ill try them out. They are reversible per the descriptions tho they move around on the sofa and the pups bed ..thats my concern & also relief as cooling. Laundry: Important - gentle cold cycle & HANG to dry.. this is on the very small directions, but if you do that, they do dry nicely.

I have an aging dog who is an angel, but who has started to "leak" in his old age. So we have waterproof covers and blankets down everywhere he likes to rest. I thought this blanket would be great for him, because he does not like to be hot, so the fact that this was a "cooling" cover appealed to me. When it arrived, it was packaged nicely, and I put it down on his spot on the couch. He immediately kicked and nudged it out of the way. I don't know what about it he didn't really like, but he doesn't want to lay directly on it. Since it is waterproof, which is important to me, I will probably layer it on the bottom of other blankets he does like to lay on, to protect my couch or bed. How badly have I spoiled this dog? Ha. Thanks.

This soft and lightweight cooling mat provides a comfortable spot for pets to relax and stay comfy. The mat also doubles as a furniture cover, protecting your couch or bed while offering your pet a cool retreat. Plus it's easy to clean, making it a great choice to protect any surface from pet hair or dander. Its reversible design adds versatility, and an option to switch up your decor! This cooling mat makes a great gift for anyone that cares about maintaining their pet's comfort, all year around! 10/10 This mat made a difference in my pet's sleeping habits. I noticed that he would sweat through his blankets he liked to lay on. After I added this to his sleeping area, the floor stays cleaner and he doesn't leave a sweat mark anymore!
