THE ORIGINAL COOLING MAT FOR DOGS – The Green Pet Shop Cool Pet Pad is a self-cooling mat that produces a chilled sensation to help your dogs and cats stay comfortable. It’s a must have for homes without air conditioning!
PRESSURE ACTIVATED – Our patented gel formula works without water, electricity, or refrigeration. Once your pet lays on the pad, it goes to work immediately, and then automatically recharges after 15-20 minutes of non-use.
USE IT YEAR ROUND – Simply place the mat anywhere your furry friend likes to relax. Cool to the touch, it offers immediate relief, ideal for senior animals, pets with medical conditions, or pets who are always looking for the cold spot on the floor!
TAKE IT EVERYWHERE – This cooling mat can be placed on the floor, sofa, or in your pet’s crate, bed, or kennel. Since it’s lightweight and folds effortlessly, the mat is also perfect for travel.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS – The Cool Pet Pad is easy to care for: simply clean by hand with a damp cloth as needed. Do not leave in direct sunlight, as this will affect the performance of the pet cooling pad.

My 3 Dogs Recommend You Get THE GPS Self Cooling Pet PAD For Your Dogs!
Every pet owner should own a “The Green Pet Shop Self Cooling Pet Pad” because it gives our dogs the option to cool themselves down when we humans might not even be aware they are more uncomfortably warm/hot than we realize. So if you don’t have a The Green Pet Shop Self Cooling Pet Pad”, buy your pup(s) one right now! My three are all laying on one as I speak…no joke.SIZE? Our family of five (3 dogs and their 2 humans) LOVE “The Green Pet Shop Self-Cooling Pet Pads”. We bought our first “The Green Pet Shop Self Cooling Pet Pad” back in 2012 and have been loyal since. At that time I bought ONE Large pet pad to accommodate all the dogs at once (and yes-I hoped to save a few bucks). But we soon learned that getting them individual cooling pads was the key as when they got hot cuddled together on the one large cool pad-their body warmth made them separate and the lucky one who didn’t move got the spacious cooling pad!TO EACH HIS/HER OWN: Lesson learned and we have a medium sized cooling pad for each of our 3 Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (11lbs to 20lbs) plus a couple extra floating around the house.. All 3 dogs are rescues, but our senior dog (newest to us) who we have had for less than 2 years loves the cooling pads. He may be almost completely blind, but he can find his cool pad quickly (they are all his according to him); we have them scattered throughout the house b/c he likes them so much.OLDER VERSION HOLDING UP WELL: Unfortunately our senior dog also likes to nest on them-or maybe he is marking them with his scent, but he does it vigorously.. We have never bought/used a separate cover for our pads. And the older version of the pads have for the most part held up and not torn from his rigorous digging. The inserts have moved around a bit within the cool pad encasement and it has created bunches in places so the older versions are no longer smooth but the dogs don’t care as they work just like they always have: wonderfully cool!”NEW AND IMPROVED VERSION”: The new version is fabulous and has held up well; there are no bulges anywhere after many sessions of our elder dog’s “nesting behavior.” (We do try to stop him from doing this!) In my view the company obviously took into consideration what wasn’t perfect about the older version and improved upon it; the new version feels sturdier than the older version and the gel feels thicker.SUGGESTIONS FOR USE: We always have cool pads for road trips whether it is to the vet nearby or to grandma & grandpa’s house 8 hours away. We bring them regardless of the weather because it may be snowing outside but inside the car, the dogs can get hot/panting from the heat blowing to keep us humans comfortable/warm. Its all about paying attention to the dog(s). At home, we keep two cool pads on our bed each night for the two dogs that prefer the human bed. And when all five of us (my husband, myself and the three dogs are cuddled together on the couch, we lay down some cool pads to keep the dogs from overheating.WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR FIRST GPS COOL PAD? Please learn from our user error. Unfortunately my husband left the cool pad the car for several (hot) days and the pad became hard as a brick wall as the gel had naturally dried out in those conditions. Again- this was not a problem with the product at all, it was user error on our (his!) part as these pads are not meant to be left in hot conditions. Make sure you store your cool pads as recommended in a cool place and most certainly not in a hot car.GIVE YOUR COOL PADS A BREAK: One thing to be aware of is that these cool pads don’t stay cool forever as they aren’t intended to stay cool forever! They give several hours of coolness depending on if your dog is laying completely on the pad or just laying his/her head on it. As our senior dog would like to live on them, I have to switch them out because they can become warm from his body heat; I imagine that warmth might feel good on his achy bones, but in the summer months that isn’t desirable for his health. So, be aware during long car rides or long couch naps on the cool pad that the pad may need a break to “recharge” as explained in the product description. The pads become cool again by not being exposed to my pups’ body heat for a bit…I haven’t timed it but definitely less than 30 minutes unless our senior pup has claimed the cool mat for more a good portion of the day.FOUR PAWS AND A TAIL UP! No question our family agrees: 5 stars for sure! We actively use these specific cool pads daily and truly love them; I believe we currently have 5 pads . I have not tried another brand and have no desire to; my dogs clearly love these pads and I feel safe the dogs are not overheating. I can’t tell you how often the dogs will come in from a jaunt in the backyard on a hot day, grab a drink of water and seek out a cool pad on their own. Sometimes I’m jealous!HOW I FOUND GPS COOL PADS: Back in 2012, one of our beloved dogs passed away due to complications from an illness just hours after a long summer car ride to visit family. He had been well hydrated with the AC on high but he was still panting. In hindsight I always wondered if he had been hotter than I had known. I came to Amazon.com looking for something that might’ve helped my sweet pup and found the The Green Pet Shop Self Cooling Pet Pad. After reading about it, I felt relieved, bought it right away for the rest of the pack!After 3 years of using this product -both the old and new versions-I feel satisfied that our pups are comfortable, happy and safe in large part because of The Green Pet Shop Self Cooling Pet Pad!In Honor of Casper who loves his cool pads dearly and in memory of my Mr. Knightley who inspired me to seek out such a fabulous product!Photos from June 2015 Oh dear. The photos are upside down! Well you get the point they are laying on their beloved GPS cool pads!

A Game Changer for My Golden Retriever!
I recently purchased The Green Pet Shop Dog Cooling Mat in size Large for my Golden Retriever, and it has been a game changer! Before getting this mat, my dog used to move from place to place at night, trying to stay cool. Now, he stays in his bed and sleeps through the night, completely relaxed.The pressure-activated cooling feature works perfectly. As soon as he lies down, the mat starts cooling, providing immediate comfort. The size is ideal for my large dog, giving him plenty of space to stretch out and enjoy the cooling effect.The mat is also incredibly easy to clean and store. It’s durable and well-made, withstanding the daily use and weight of my Golden Retriever without any issues. It’s also portable, which means I can take it with us when we travel, ensuring he stays comfortable no matter where we are.Overall, I highly recommend The Green Pet Shop Dog Cooling Mat for anyone with a dog that struggles with staying cool, especially during warmer months. It has made a huge difference in my dog’s comfort and quality of sleep. Worth every penny!

Cooling = excellent! Durability = boooo.
Do not use this bed bare.I have a 6 month old puppy who has yet to even put a rip in any of her stuffed animals, let alone anything sturdy. She doesn’t chew her crate pad, my clothes, shoes, furniture, nothing. We have had the same beds for her entire puppyhood; not a scratch on them. We do live in the desert, though, so her poor furry self gets very hot. We thought we’d get her this to help.Two days of only supervised use with this pad and she’s managed to somehow cause two holes and eat a bunch of the (hopefully) non-toxic gel out. It is now unusable and not patch-able since the gel keeps tape from sticking. How is this “durable”? It didn’t seem able to withstand even a few gnaws before giving way.The cooling effect was wonderful, and I’m very disappointed it isn’t more durable. She loved it. Honestly not sure if I even want a replacement unless it can somehow be covered to prevent this. That’s how silly this situation is; even a slipcover would’ve been enough to protect against her mild chewing, because she can’t break through basic cloth. I didn’t realize this bed was basically a freezer cold pack masquerading as a durable dog product. I’ve left her alone with pillowcases that lasted longer.**UPDATE** The company has provided me with a heartfelt apology and immediate refund. So, good on them. They claim this is the first one to ever be torn open by a dog’s mouth, and while I doubt that, I’m willing to give them another try; this time, though, I’ll be purchasing a bed with a sturdy zippered slipcover that this can go UNDERNEATH. Like I said, the cooling effect was lovely and my dog very much enjoyed the bed. She misses it.

Llegó rápido, un dia antes de la fecha dada, lo cual fue bueno. La pedí para mi gato y me ha costado trabajo la use. Finalmente lo logré pero después de un tiempo (40 minutos aprox. O menos) él se movió de la cama, toque la alfombrilla y estaba ya caliente justo en donde estuvo acostado por lo que no funciona el tiempo que dicen. Otro punto es que no sabí en un inicio de que lado se usa, si era un lado o ambos y no lo dice. Sería bueno dieran mejores instrucciones de uso. Creo que para el precio y lo que ofrece en su descripción debería de durar más tiempo fría.

Mi perrita siempre anda buscando cool spots y se duerme sobre esto. En el auto es maravilloso porque le da soporte y se mantiene fresca. No lo dejen en alAuto porque deja de funcionar. No es helado pero sí fresco y tengan cuidado que sus garras no lo penetren.
