Cooling Coats

Anybody tried them other than me

Have just invested in an Easidri coat to try on both of them before investing in a 2nd one and am well impressed . Not the cheapest but having spoke to someone from SARDA ( Search and Rescue Dog Association for you no UK peeps ) the other day was advised don't buy cheap these are head and shoulders above the competition . Paid £39 for mine in small size and including delivery direct from Easidri but did have an issue with Tilly being a bit deeper chested than Tommy it only just fit on the velcro chest strap , sent them an email no probs they called me and chatted about it they supply extension straps for such cases as the next size up would drown Tilly ., they just stick it in the post for free no trouble.

Went to ringcraft tonight and car was warm even though I had run the air con for 10 mins before we set off and not a peep or pant out of him , even turned the air con off at one point and I am dying with the direct heat and he was happy as Larry so looks like a 9/10 for me just driopping 1 point due to the fit on the chest problem but a big 10/10 for customer service and also the cheapest source of these coats available anyway.

Going to Leeds Champ Show on Saturday and they will have a stall there so going to pa them a visit and try the medium for Tommy but if it drowns him then another small will be fine

Mrs C , if you are interested in one for the Dempster then the do an extra wide version in the medium and if you are not sure then phone them up they are lovely to deal with on the telephone .

Little extra advice I got off a friend tonight also was soak em , bag em and leave em in the fridge overnight for a superchilled dog

Brilliant idea. But I have never seen them here. They are something that would be really useful to us. Do they do international orders?

I will be seeing them on the stand on Saturday Tracey so will ask for you

or if you want you can email them yourself

Cheers Dave, I will look tomorrow. Been kind of a hard day here today.  Appreciate the links.  Thanks mate.

Thanks for the link Dave. Kuchar is really suffering in this hot weather and if and when I get some pennies together I'll get one for him (then it will go cold and rainy, my luck being what it is!)

Can you exercise the dog in it, or let it sleep in it these hot nights, do you know?

I'll certainly be interested!

Need to save up a few pennies, but they do look good.

I took Tilly out in it this morning Lynda and she was much more settled and full of beans , took it off her to have a good runaround as she likes to roll etc and thought it may get wrecked , I would defintely say yes to the sleeping as at the moment that's what Tilly is doing with the coat laid over her like a blankey

Thanks Dave, I'm very tempted, I may put off replacing my bald tyres - I hate to see Kuchar so hot and bothered, he gets so distressed and tries to run away from the heat.

It's rotten seeing them so hot & listless!

got ours all soaked in a bag in the drinks chiller ready for out trip to Leeds Champ Show in the morning

talk about a chilled out dog lol

I bet they'll be a lot happier, though!

Hope so Caryll , we will see tomorrow ,

Good luck!

Another fair judge tomorrow apparently but if nothing else then a day out with mates

Who's judging?

One of the girls from Staffies r us has one for her lot not that one but a hurta one and she swears by it and her dogs compete in agility
