K9 Owners/Breeders

We recently purchased a vest for our Newfoundland, Turtle, and are so happy with it. We live in the Kimberley and it gets hot here. Since using your vest, Turtle's panting has been minimal and definitely not stress related which is such a relief. The vest is great for long car trips which are unavoidable here! He loves it and it keeps him cool for hours. Thank you! Frances, Shaun, and Turtle Derby W.A. 6/7/08

Attached is an article for you to put on your website (if you want to) showing our Malvern GSD dogs working at the Stonnington Pets in the Park day in March 2008. The day was stinking hot, but our dogs coped beautifully thanks to their cool coats.

I just wanted to say how much my Boston terrier "Jack" Loualli Invitation Only loves his Cool coat!! It has made such a different at shows on those really hot days!! THANK YOU!! Cazz Cathcart Victoria 3/3/08
I am SO impressed with the Coat!. My black Border Collie/Kelpie does well at sit stays, except in the heat, when she folds at the knees! Even if the temperature is around 23-4 degrees C, which is nice for me, she is panting and uncomfortable. The Cooling Vest enabled her to do her sit stays no probs. She worked happy and alert, willing to please me for over an hour in the full sun at approx 30 degrees. She was a different dog. I actually have hope that we might get our CCD pass this year Ruth Harvey 5/2/08
I just wanted to say how wonderful the Cool Champions Coats are. I was amazed at just how cool it keeps you pooch on these hot summer days, and I love that they don't weigh your dog down. Thanks for the wonderful prompt service, I will definitely be purchasing more items from you in the future and recommending your products to other people. I have attached a picture of Bailey looking very "regal" wearing his new coat. Sincerely Shona Finnis (S.A) (& Bailey the Weimaraner) 21/1/08 Click Bailey for larger view

I would just like to let you know that I purchased a K9 Cool Vest and Mat for our 15 year old Staffy I ordered the Vest and Mat at lunch time on Friday and it was delivered Monday lunch time as promised as we live in Perth I was amazed at the service by your Company it was fabulous. We are Water Skiers and always take our Staffy to the lakes with us, unfortunately because of her age the Perth heat is a major problem for her, after purchasing the Cool Vest and Mat we set off to the lake last weekend - 37C heat and she was happy, comfortable and cool in her new coat, we were amazed at the difference - the heat did not bother her at all as she lay under the Gazebo snoring - as only Staffy's can. Thank you so much for a brilliant product that we have recommended to all our friends. Rose Tindall WA 26-11-2007

Finally having a warm spell, tried the K9 greyhound rug on our dogs. The temperature was approx.34 deg. our greyhound wore the rugs for the whole day. Greyhounds that were wearing rug were outside laying on concrete, while dogs not wearing them where trying to get out of the heat. Cannot speak highly enough about these rugs, excellent product that work extremely well and can't wait to try them when dogs are racing Brian Gordon S.A. 18/11/07
I have used both the cool coat and the cool mat for my Bullmastiffs in the last 12 months & they work wonderfully, cooling them down very quickly on the hot days. I had mine with me at the Pet Expo earlier this year & was so inundated with comments on it & where to get them I had to phone home to get the details to pass along to people. I used the coat on mine on (Sat 27/10/07) as I went to the Euroa & did not hear her panting once the whole way home in the car. What a wonderful invention they are! Cheryl Wright Vic. 30/10/07
Back on 20/9/06 I purchased a K9 Cooling Vest to suit our young male Staffordshire Bull Terrier, after talking on the phone with you. The vest has been fantastic, keeping " Quinn"- or - "Tribalstaff Prince Otto- CD" cool and content on our many hot summer days. Living up in Mansfield (Nth East Country Victoria) summer is consistently hot all through the season, but with the Cool Vest we are able to exercise him safely in the warmth and keep him in top show and trial condition. I've attached a photo of Quinn wearing his vest. We have recently added another Stafford to the family and now wish to purchase another of the vests to suit her. Last time we bought a "Small - Hi Vis Yellow" Vest for Quinn. Cheryl Reyment 22/10/07
I have just attended the Adelaide Royal Show and must sing the praises of the cooling coat. Firstly, I believe that it helped to save the life of a Mastiff in our group that started to bloat at the show. The coat was put on him soon after his condition was suspected and was not removed until he arrived at the emergency veterinary clinic. He did seem to settle and fortunately did not progress to a torsion. On Specials day, I used the coat on my own Mastiff, Clinton (107 kgs at 19 months). The pavillion started to warm up in the early afternoon and he started to pant quite a lot after being exhibited. I prepared the coat and within 10 minutes of placing it on him, he had stopped panting and did not do so for the rest of the afternoon. I had many South Australian exhibitors, as well as some pet owning public, who will be contacting you to purchase a coat. The show people were not only impressed by its effectiveness, but also that the coat remained dry. I'm sure that you will make many sales in South Australia!

Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou. I have a 7 month old Long Coat Akita called Kato who is seeing through his first summer. The days became longer and longer for him and we thought that we would have to take the plunge and clip his lovely coat to make the hot days more comfortable. Until that is, we put his cooling vest on him for the first time. We bought for him the greyhound size in the khaki and it looks great and I was surprised at the amount of difference it made. Kato now sees through every hot day happily in his vest. Thankyou - you saved his coat from certain death!! (Click images for larger view) Kindest Regards Natalie Tasmania - 2007
"Our pup's name is "Almytee Boys Light Up" and her call name is "Freya" she is 2 years old and participates in Obedience, Agility and Jumping. As you can see the Greyhound size works well due to her Spitz tail. We use the vest due to her training regime and the fact that we live in the Tropics. All competition and training is during the evening but it is still hot and now becoming quite humid. We find the vest excellent and very comfortable for Freya. She usually wears it between Agility runs during training and during breaks in the Trials. She also occasionally wears it during her usual evening walks. (Click image for larger view) We also have a Coolmat which we place in the bottom of Freya's crate at Trials and training. This mat has been 'borrowed' by other dogs after their Agility runs at the various Trials. Everyone seems pleasantly surprised by how well it works in quickly cooling off the dogs." Sue Darwin - October, 2006 I would really like to thank you just so much for making me aware of the wonderful cooling rugs that you have on sale for dogs. A couple of weeks ago when we had the very hot weather, my lovely old Border Collie ( Aust NZ CH Glentress Chain Reaction ) who I love dearly, had a terrible turn. He was panting until his tongue nearly reached the ground and he was quite disorientated, his gums and tongue had a bluish tinge to them. As it was on a Sunday, I didn't quite know what to do, because, by the time I got to see a vet, I am sure he would have died. But I remembered that I had bought one of the cooling rugs from you a little while ago, so I quickly soaked it and put it on him and I laid him down. I am just so pleased to say within a matter of 10 or so minutes, he was panting normally and his gums and tongue had returned to their normal colour. As that was well over a month ago now, I am very pleased to say that he is still with us. If and when it ever happens again to any of our dogs, I will definitely not hesitate in using your cooling rugs, as I am absolutely certain in my mind that it did save my dear old dog's life that day. Thanks again Kind regards Marilyn Adams I purchased a K9 cooling vest early this year, and have used it this season at the coursing, not only on my dogs, but also on 2 other runners. Both of the trainers that I lent the rug to were very impressed. I am looking forward to using it again this summer, as I believe it (Cool Champions K9 Cooling Vest) is an important asset to any trainer. I would like to order another royal blue rug. Thanks in advance, Wendy Sebastyan S.A., Australia October 2005 I just want to say thanks on behalf of my two Pet Greyhounds. The difference your Cool Champions K9 Cooling Vests have made is remarkable. What really freaked me out was to see both of them laying on the concrete pavers in the sun sound asleep in 30 degree Russell N.S.W. Australia January 2005 Click image for larger view "I have seen many fads over the years and was a bit skeptical at first. Because I live in Queensland and the humidity is so high, I decided to try the Coolweave greyhound rugs for my dogs. This is a remarkable product for the Australian climate. The dogs are extremely contented and lay down for hours keeping cool, despite our high temperatures. The rugs also give the added advantages of protecting them from flies as well as UV rays. They are simple to use and the rugs stay cool for the whole day. Any serious trainer or owner of horses and greyhounds needs this for their animals. I am extremely impressed. These cooling vests are sensational." Robbie Byrnes Multiple Group 1 Harness Racing Driver and now successful greyhound trainer Last night I took [my dog] Skye for her herding lesson. It was 6pm and still quite warm. Skye showed no interest in the sheep no matter what the trainer tried. I was ready to give up and drive the hour and half home. Then I ask if we could try her in the cool vest. What a difference. She took out after the sheep and finished her lesson. The trainer and people watching were amazed at the difference and remarked that she was like a different dog with the vest on. ... I was so thrilled with difference your vest made I had to tell you.
