Custom-Fitted K9 Evaporative Cooling Vests

We are proud to offer custom-fitted evaporative cooling vests for your dog! Evaporative cooling vests for dogs offer a safe and effective way to help regulate their body temperature, especially during hot weather or physical activity. These vests utilize the principle of evaporative cooling, similar to how humans sweat, to draw heat away from the dog's body as water evaporates from the vest. This helps prevent overheating and reduces the risk of heat-related illnesses like heatstroke.

At this time we are seeking K9 EvapoVest ambassadors! If your dog has what it takes, please contact us here!

 
 

An evaporative cooling vest works by using the natural process of evaporation to draw heat away from the body, thus lowering the wearer's core temperature.

The vest is made out of a material that utilizes evaporative cooling technology. Simply put: as the water evaporates, it cools the body. 

Benefits of Evaporative Cooling Vests for Dogs:

  • Temperature Regulation:

    Cooling vests help maintain a stable body temperature, preventing overheating and keeping dogs comfortable in warm weather. 

  • Prevention of Heatstroke:

    By keeping the dog's body temperature within a safe range, cooling vests can significantly reduce the risk of heatstroke, a dangerous condition for dogs. 

Perfect for dog sports!

Our evaporative cooling vests are perfect to have on hand during any outdoor activity or dog sport event!

  • Enhanced Comfort:

    Dogs, especially those with thick fur, can struggle to stay comfortable in the heat. Cooling vests offer relief by helping them stay cool and reducing stress during outdoor activities. 

  • Safe Outdoor Activities:

    Cooling vests allow dogs to participate in outdoor activities like walks, hikes, or playtime without the risk of overheating. 

  • Easy to Use and Activate:

    Cooling vests are typically easy to activate by soaking them in water and wringing out the excess, and they can be easily re-moistened as needed

 How THey Work:

  • Super Evaporative: This unique material is highly absorbent and allows water to evaporate quickly, providing a powerful cooling effect.

  • Fast Activation: The material activates quickly and easily when soaked in water, requiring no refrigeration or ice.

  • Lightweight: The K9 EvapoVests may be lighter and more comfortable than other wet evaporative vests

  • Long-Lasting Cooling: They can provide cooling for extended periods, typically up to 4 hours, depending on factors like ambient temperature, humidity, and airflow.

  • Comfortable Fit: The vests can be custom designed with features like mesh panels for breathability and comfort.

  • Reusable and Durable: They can be reused by re-soaking in water and are generally durable with proper care.

  • Easy to Use: Activating the vest involves simply soaking it in water and wringing it out.

 How to take measurements:

While we are in the early phases of custom sewing each individual vest, please contact me for more information.

If you would like to learn more about our ambassador program, please fill out this form.

Measurement 1:

Circumference around the widest part of your dog’s head (typically around the ears). Because the vest slips over your dog’s head, we need to make sure the opening is wide enough to slip over.

Measurement 2:

Length of your dog’s back from the base of the neck (generally where a collar would sit) to the start of the tail). This measurement will be the length of the vest; so if you would like it to not cover the entire back, please measure accordingly.

Customizing your vest!

Please reference the image below for assistance taking measurements!

optional Measurement 3:

Circumference around the widest part of your dog’s chest behind the shoulders. Because each dog has a different body type based upon breed, we try to ensure the vest is the most accurate fit around your dog’s body.

Overheating, Heat Exhaustion, Heat Stroke:

While evaporative cooling vests may help regulate body temperature and reduce the risk of overheating, proper precautions need to be taken, always. Different breeds, ages, activities, and weather conditions should be taken very seriously, and first-aid education is of utmost importance when dealing with heat related emergencies. Before your dog participates in any activity, it is always best to consult your vet.

Evaporative cooling vests work by utilizing the natural process of evaporation to draw heat away from the body, keeping the wearer cooler and more comfortable in hot conditions. However, it's crucial to understand that cooling vests are simply a preventative measure, not a treatment for heat stroke once it has occurred.
