I prefer this kind of cooling coat: Clean Run Cool Coat
Have you actually used this product? I bought two of these for my dogs but have not used it yet. I live on the coast where it is cool. But during the summer, if we go anywhere it is usually 30+ degrees hotter.
As an example, right now it is 60 degrees at noon. This weekend I am going to a herding trial and it will be 100 degrees by noon. That is 40 degrees difference. I am hoping to use this coat to keep Cipher cool until she does her HT.
I am hoping that it works as advertised.
