Ruff and Tumble Dog Cooling Coat — Triple-Layer Cooling Technology for Summer Adventures
With triple-layered cooling technology, the Ruff and Tumble Cooling Coat gives active dog owners control and reassurance on warm days. Whether it's sunny outdoors or warm indoors, the Cooling Coat will keep your dog cool and refreshed — allowing you both to enjoy summer adventures with confidence.
Simple to use and quick-acting: soak the Cooling Coat in cold water, wring it out, clip it on, and the cooling effect starts to work immediately.
How It Works — Three Layers, One Smart System
Using evaporative cooling technology, three layers work together to regulate your dog's heat:
-
Outer silver layer — rated UPF 50+ (maximum rating), it deflects the sun's rays to prevent heat build-up.
-
Middle reservoir layer — holds cool water in a dedicated reservoir section. Your dog's body heat activates the evaporative cooling power of water, mimicking 'sweating' to cool them down.
-
Inner comfy mesh layer — acts as a membrane that cools without wetting your dog's coat or skin.
For continuous cooling, regularly recharge the coat to ensure the central layer remains soaked at all times.
When to Use a Cooling Coat
It is always advised to use Cooling Gear as a preventative measure rather than waiting until your dog is overheating. Always seek shade and provide water on warmer days — and note that different dogs tolerate different temperatures depending on their breed, size, coat, age, and weight.
A Cooling Coat is something you'd pack — with water to recharge it — on a normal warmish day when you're out and about. It's ideal for car journeys, walks in the shade, time at home, or any situation where your dog may risk getting too warm. Active dogs and owners welcome Cooling Coats as a way of keeping dogs comfortable when exercising on milder warm days.
Important: Cooling Coats are designed to keep a cool dog cool — not to cool a dog that is already overheating. They are not a treatment for heatstroke. Heatstroke is serious, can happen quickly, and can be fatal. Over-reliance on cooling gear in extreme temperatures is dangerous.
Sizing Guide
Cooling Coat sizes differ from Drying Coat sizes. Please double-check your measurements using the guide below.
To determine the right size, measure your dog's chest and topline (from the shoulder blades to the start of the tail). Sizes are adjustable using the sliders on the chest straps. If your dog is between two sizes, we recommend taking the smaller size.
