As a dog I would like to tell you what it is like from a dogs view , firstly we have to have our coat on all the time ,so if you are going to take us for a walk do it in the early morning and late at night ,also remember that the pavements can get hot and unlike you I don't wear shoes so my pads can get burnt ,if there is some grass along the path let me walk on that ,it's kinder to my paws, if you put me in the car remember that sitting behind glass magnifys the heat which makesme pant more and makes me look distressed , I won't always eat all my dinner ,but don't worry ,it's just the heat 

would you go out for a run with your winters coat on ??.....NO ,then don't expect me to

We use the gel mats. They do warm up after a while but they work really well. I bought a huge one for two small dogs so there's always a cool bit for them. 

Worth every penny.

Just spotted this thread and popped in to say exactly the same this as Jayess.  Our Lizzie find the gel mat especially useful in the car - mind you she likes the aircon too!  😂 😂
