Cooling Gear

A dachshund walks with its belly inches off hot ground and carries that heat home. The ice-silk mat gives them somewhere to dump it — no power, no freezer, no water to fill. The fabric pulls heat away the moment your dog lies down.

Folds flat for a crate, a car footwell, or under a garden chair. One style stocked for now, in five sizes; Medium suits a standard dachshund. More warm-weather gear is coming.
