NEW YORK, NY, Jun 19 (MARKET WIRE) --
Cool Vest(R), the solution for keeping your dog healthy during summer's
heat, will now be featured in SkyMall, debuting in its summer issue July
1. Now, world traveling pet owners have an easy way to order the latest
in cool travel gear for their dogs.
SkyMall carries pet supplies that are not only functionally unique, but
also products that promote a pet's health and safety.
Cool Vest(R) (www.CoolVest4dog.com), a unique cooling vest for man's best
friend, has just received high marks from dog specialty media such as Dog
Fancy magazine for discriminating dog owners. Dogs don't perspire as
humans do, so you want to avoid having your canine overheat at all. A pet
can die from heatstroke in as little as 20 minutes to an hour.
The Humane Society warns owners to take action when a dog displays heat
stress signs such as heavy panting, glazed eyes, a rapid pulse,
unsteadiness, a staggering gait, vomiting, or a deep red or purple tongue.
Lowering your pet's body temperature by moving him out of the sun,
applying cool (not cold) water over his body, and offering small amounts
of water or ice cubes will help until you can bring him to a
veterinarian... but the best cure is prevention.
Gramercy Distribution, Inc., US distributor of Cool Vest(R), and SkyMall
are both eager to promote the protection of dogs from the heat.
"We're happy that SkyMall and we share the same goal to provide comfort
for our furry family members. SkyMall has1.8 million readers every day
and now we can communicate to a vast number of people that dogs need to be
protected from the heat," said Naoko Honda of Gramercy Distribution. "Now
that summer's here, dog owners can enjoy dog sports or just long walks
with their pets knowing they are protected easily and conveniently --
Just soak the adjustable, easy to wear, Cool Vest (R) in water to provide
a protective layer from direct and indirect sunlight and heat. Its
waterproof lining keeps dogs dry, too, with no toxic chemicals or
materials."
Digitaldog.com, a leading website for dog owners, recommends this ultra
thin, lightweight vest to its visitors, noting that "The Cool Vest(R) is a
solution that allows dogs to train and compete in hot summer months safely
and efficiently. Anyone you know involved in Dog Sport or just running
around with their dog should be told about the Cool Vest(R)"
The Vest cools by evaporation and will work for 45 minutes to two hours on
average without the excessive coldness that might impair a dog's
circulation. The cooling effects can be easily refreshed by remoistening
the vest with water.
