over 1 year ago Tammy,Kimbler. I put my ripe tomatoes, the ones without unhealed cracks or bruises, in a box in a single layer, then set them on the floor in front of my air conditioning vent. It's just enough of a cooling effect to hold them a bit longer. If I want 4 or 5 days more, I put the box on the floor in the corner of the basement.
Dog Cooling Pads. These are gel-based and work by a chemical in the pad that absorbs the dogâs temperature and cools them down. The COOL PET PAD is weight or pressure activated. As soon as your 4 legged friend lies down the cooling effect starts. It will last up to 3-4 hours of constant use and will last for years.
Other Cool(ing) Products for Dogs. When the pet supply shelves overflow with dog cooling products, you know it's a widespread concern. There are a number of items, besides vests, available to help your dog keep her cool. Neck wraps or bandanas designed for cooling work similar to water vests, as you soak them in water before placing them around your dog's neck.
