So, Mommy and Daddy went to the Treats-Are-At-My-Feet store called Petfood Express. I LOVE this place, as they designed it for Pugs...All the delicious treats are right at my feet! But Momm
y kept me away from all the goodness and we went to the clothing area....Ut oh, I don't like to wear things unless it's a formal occasion. Mommy and Daddy searched and found this:It's soaked in cool water and I then get to wear it. It's supposed to keep me a little bit cooler when I'm outside. Mommy and Daddy told me, though, that it isn't a substitute for safe summer play, especially for us pugs. So I still have to take breaks and maybe use my pool!
At home, I tried it on and don't think I'm gonna like it too much:
If it helps, I'm all for it. I'll get used to it and try my best not to chew it like a delicious towel.
Mommy said I should put some info in my blog to help doggies in the summer:
Summer and pets
Protecting doggies in the heat

Hi Bellatrix,
ReplyDeleteYou look really cute in that cooling collar. Don't look so sad. You gave us alot of good advise. I have to learn to listen to my people.I never know when enough is enough. I get hot in the summer really fast.
Pee-S..
ReplyDeleteDanks for thinking of the cluck cluck chicken mans and sending him well wishes!!
ANDS GUESS WHATS!!
28 DAYS TIL
the 3rd installments!!!
Thanks for that useful and interesting information about the Cool-It Bandana! I know my pug clients would HATE to wear the bandana but I know they will appreciate wearing it on hot days like it was in NH today! I've got to invest in a few of those bandanas and give them away to my pug pals but I know that other dogs get really, really uncomfortable in the hot weather too (and humans suffer too) so I'm thinking I've got a lot of broadcasting to do right away!
ReplyDeleteI am going to post your post (heehee) on Twitter & FB!
My dear Elgin gang you totally make my day! Josie you will get a kick out of this. Mom and dad were at the pet store getting my collar and looked at the small one...which had a pug picture on the back. Right? So mom vandalizes (err carefully took the collar out of the container) to see if the small would fit me....HA! pug size my cute patootie!! I needed a medium...which has a lab on the back. Izzy will need the Saint Bernard size...hehehehehe... Pugs in a small collar...hahahaha
ReplyDeleteOh and mom is totally excited about the next movie. Something about midnight showing and me staying home with daddy. Shesh! Doesn't she know that I love popcorn?
Wilma!! I don't listen to mom and dad either. I was playing with Spencer tonight and new little chi/pug mix came into play. I tried to keep up with all her running...and I was too overheated. Mom had to make me stop then cool me down. She even had to carry me back to the car. She let me sit up front and put the A/C on so I could cool down. Mom said if I don't learn how to stop playing, that she'll make me stop! Shesh!
ReplyDeleteOh that is such a cool bandana. The colour matches you wonderfully. I thinks you will really get to likes it. I have 3 and I luvs mine. Mine don't looks as nice as yours though.

Hiya Teacher's Pet! Thanks for helping to spread the word about how important it is for us pugs to stay cool. I'm glad I live close to San Francisco, so if it ever gets toooo hot, mom will just drive me into the city. Something about fog being natures air conditioning. Mom also bought a small spray bottle that mists water, so when I really get too hot, I can be misted down. Mom says she may use that on herself. Silly mom!
ReplyDeleteI'm with Winston - you're totally rocking that bandana. You should definitely come over our side of the bridge next time you need to cool down. We could all go to the beach and get superpuggy!!
ReplyDeletePS: I say skip the mister and go straight for a squirt-top water bottle when things get hot. My human soaks me when we hike and it totally keeps me cool. It makes me look like a big wet dork, but at least I'm not hot :)
Hi Bellatrix! You look super cute in that bandana but I worry that it will make you hot instead of keeping you cool. My advice to you is to head for the air conditioned house when it gets hot out. Nothing beats a cold house on a hot day.
ReplyDeleteStubby xoxo
BellaTrix!!! I had so much fun with you at our play date this evening. I wish we had your cool new bandana when you got a to running really fast and got overheated tonight! I am so excited to wear mine- we are such a cute couple!!
ReplyDeleteYou look so cute in your new bandanna!! That is a very good idea. The momma has been looking at cool coats ever since she was a puggy on facebook with one. She thinks I should have one for 4th of July at grandma's so I don't get to hot!!
