Pampered Pooch - Alternative use for Cooler Shock
Our puppy is a Samoyed (double coat fluff ball), build for sled pulling and snow, but not Houston heat. We got her cause the breed is great with kids and allegedly hypoallergenic. She couldn't sleep through the night because she was getting too hot in her crate. I purchased this product as an alternative to doggy chill mats, since the pet cooler mats when you put them in the freezer don't stay cold very long. We had tried several of them, and even hard freezing them we would end up adding blue ice packs to the crate/dog bed by 2:30 AM. I figured, these packs are big enough that I put all three into a pillow case and freeze them, it would be better than those cold mats that stay cool for only a few hours. With the Cooler Shock she makes it from 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM. By morning the Cooler Shock is pretty much thawed, but still cool to the touch. Blue Ice would be thawed completely and warm and that is with them being on a pet chill mat. Bottom line, I am able to get sleep through the night. The dog thinks it's the best treat ever, stares at the freezer waiting to be put to bed. I realize that is probably the strangest application every, but thermodynamically they do a great job next to a 101 degree furry heat exchanger.
