Hugs Pet Products Chillz Gel Mat, Large – Pressure-Activated Cooling Pad for Pets – Non-Toxic, No Water or Refrigeration Needed – Ideal for Home, Travel & Crates

Keep your dog cool and comfortable!
My Cardigan Welsh Corgi does not like to be hot, and when it’s really warm, my Whippet doesn’t like it either. Both benefit so much from their Chillz Dog Cooling Mats. When we travel for agility trials in the summer, I make sure my Corgi has a Chillz mat in his crate for a comfortable night’s sleep. Both dogs like the cool and comfort provided when their Chillz mats are in their crates at agility trials. Most crate mats are plush or furry, and that’s great in the winter, but in warm weather, they need cushion and cool and with these mats they get both. They feel better and perform better, thanks to their Chillz Dog Cooling Mats.

Glorified pee pads at BEST
Less than impressed honestly. I live in Southern California, where it’s hot as hell on the regular, and this summer, it has been in the 90s-100s pretty regularly. I have two pugs, and not only do they overheat easily with all of their rolls, one of them can’t use her back legs and get water or cool off as easily as the other, so I figured this would be the perfect solution for her.I ended up ordering two because the sizes were funky. I ordered a large for our handicapped dog, and it fit perfectly in her dog bed (i don’t know the dementions of the bed, but it’s an XL dog bed, usually for large dogs). I noticed when I got it that the pad wasn’t cold, or even mildly cool to the touch, so I attempted to put it in the freezer, which was a mistake; it expanded and I accidently broke a part of my freezer drawer (I’m not knocking a star off for that obviously, since it was my own mistake, but I want to make sure people know what will happen!). Overall, the pad still didn’t seem cool once it thawed either. We normally have to put ice packs on our handicapped pug when she overheats, and I still find myself doing that just as often as before. We still keep it on her bed out of habit, since it also stops her from peeing into the dog bed, but it isn’t cold in the slightest, so now it’s really just an overpriced pee pad.I also purchased an XL pad because of the great reviews. Our other dog normally likes to cool down on the tile floor in our kitchen, but she is also old and can’t go down the stairs to the kitchen, so I figured I’d keep it on the carpet. She seemed totally uninterested in the thing. I’d have to bribe her with treats just to sit on the mat, but that was the only time she’d go on it. I even put her water bowl on the mat, and she’d rather whine in front of the mat for water than to go over it to drink. I’m not sure if it’s the texture of the mat on her nails or if she’s just picky or just doesn’t see the point, but she has zero interest in it. I attached a photo of her napping, and no matter how much I tried to get her to nap or even sit on the mat, she wanted nothing to do with it. So now I have these two pads that are basically a waste of money. I feel like if you live somewhere that’s already cold, the mats will also be cold. But if you live anywhere that gets warmer than 70°, it’s useless. Pretty disappointed, as our family was looking forward to finding some temperature relief for our dogs.

The large isnt that large
This actually held up pretty well. My dog wont continue to lay on it for long periods of time and always folds it up but you can easily rinse it off and it is cool to the touch. They run a little small I was hoping to use it as a place, but my dog is too large for it. He is a large breed though, but I would say it was worthwhile

Product is as described. Does get chilly. Only trouble is my dog won’t lay on it, but my 12 year old uses it to cool off.

Good quality however it can be slippery on tiles.

Great help for putting lights in
