K&H Pet Products Cool Bed III Thermoregulating Pet Bed Medium Gray 22" x 32" x 0.5"

Update: I've had the large Cool Bed III for more than a year now, and it's still perfect for our elderly 120-pound malamute. No leaks or tears. It was obvious from the start that our malamute, who is always hot, much prefers this bed over the fabric ones she had before. She would need to get up periodically from her previous beds to cool off, but she'll stay on the Cool Bed all day long. In case I needed to move it around (wasn't sure where to put it initially), I placed a piece of rug under the bed so I had something to hold onto as I dragged it over the hardwood floor. Very easy to do, although I've only done that once. As suggested by another reviewer, during the setup I ran a broom handle across the top to remove the air. So far so good -- my dog loves her bed and it's easy to wipe down.

We have two adopted huskies and though we keep our house cold, they prefer it even slightly chillier, so these beds are perfect for them. We keep them in our bedroom on top of carpet and I sewed custom cotton sheet covers for them to make them more attractive AND because I couldn't clean off the muddy tracks completely by just wiping them down (our dogs have unlimited access to our large yard via doggie door most of the time). I even tried to clean them with detergent but not much luck. So with the cotton fitted sheets, I just toss them in the wash and voila, all is beautiful again.

This bed is perfect for our Siberian Husky!! She is 56lbs. & this is perfect size. Easy to fill up, and very durable. She constantly lays on it! As soon as she comes in from outside, she goes straight to her bed. At first, the water squishing around freaked her out, but I just sat next to the bed and pet her while getting her to relax on it for the first 2 or 3 times. We have had the bed for about 2 years & that is still her favorite spot to lay down. If it ever wears out, we will buy another! Since this bed is so heavy to move & you don't want the pad inside it to bunch up, or go through the hassle of draining it, I put a $7.00 rug that's practically the same size under it. That way I can move it around much easier if needed, just not up or downstairs.

I bought this product because I don't have air conditioning and was looking for ways to cool my dog. It does work very well and provides him with a cool place to retire to. However, it was too small for us.

II was looking for something to put in my dog's crate. He is a golden retriever and has a medium/large crate that is 23 by 36 inches (width/length). The medium cooling mat is 22 by 32 inches. This left 4 inches of bare crate pan, so either my dog's butt or head was lying on the floor.

When the mat was full of water that's a bit of a drop, and my dog didn't like it. I got him another brand that fit the crate better and he was much happier with that one. But he would not use this one.

I gave this one to a lady who has 2 chihuahuas and she just put it out on her living room floor. Worked very well for her and her 2 dogs can lay together on it. So know what size you need before you buy.

I have 5 dogs (Shih Tzu & Pekingese) and they all cram on top of this pad. I like to put my leg on the edge, which keeps me cool too but I'm think'n I need another one~

Yes, these leak.... but after about 2 years. I live in Arizona and I've purchased this cooling pad twice over the course of 4 years. I have 5 dogs so I've actually purchase it multiple times. After each summer, usually mid October, I empty it out and put it away. By the time the month of May comes around I re-fill it and it keeps ME and my babies cool all summer long...I put my legs on it sometimes. This year, the cooling pad sprung a leak and we tried to glue it shut but it didn't work. I like to put a couple drops of bleach with tap water when I fill it but that may have shortened it's life-span.

We'll be purchasing more before the weather gets warm again. The cooling pad stays cold as long as your dog isn't laying on it constantly - give the cooling pad about a 30 minute break every few hours and it will get cold again. Personally, me and my dogs can't lay on it for more than an hour before we start shivering, and that's in 110 degree AZ heat!
