 Just wanted to send on a big thankyou.
Our beautiful British Bulldog girl Jamima (photo attached) has always really struggled with the heat, she become lethargic, uninterested & basically hibernated away on those hot days.
I brought the new medium size especially for bulldogs, I was a little worried as I have always had trouble fitting coats on her, especially across her front in the shoulders. The coat was a great fit in length, around the shoulders & long enough to go down her belly. Jam is a little bigger around the girth than most (all 32kg of it) so the team at Silver Eagle made up some extension straps & it fits like a glove.
I saw an instant improvement in her breathing, energy & comfort levels, she was even happy enough to come out & play .
We are so pleased with the results for Jamima & can't recommend it enough.
Thanks for all your help

| My whippet has refused to work during last week or so of hot weather, even late at night, After picking up the coats, I put it on him, he sprung straight into action doing the obedience commands without hesitation. I would highly
recommend these coats, as long as the instructions followed properly to get the full benefit of its use. Sharon C

| I have the coats already and my old dog is loving it. I have 3 border collies and bought a cool coat for the middle one when we were at the Canberra Show last year. She is competing in Flyball and really feels
the heat. I had been putting her coat on my 13yo boy as he was really panting in the Qld heat, even though it is supposed to be spring. The panting stopped and he was able to relax very comfortably without any stress. I decided to buy him his own coat and got one for my 8 month pup as well as she is also was panting a lot. I haven’t put the coat on the pup let as she is handling the heat ok at the moment but I am sure she will appreciate it when I do.
Thanks for a wonderful product.

The cooling vest arrived here in Scotland 4 days after my order was placed, thank you for such a quick and trouble free transaction. The cooling vest is fantastic, the quality of the material and the job that it does fulfils everything I was looking for. I have enclosed 2 pics of my Staffordshire Bull Terriers wearing the vest, I will possibly be placing an order for a pink one for my bitch Evie. I am attending a show in Scotland this weekend and a few people have asked
if I could bring the vest along so they can see it/ try it on their dog. Thank you for such a fantastic item, I am sure it will serve my dogs for many years.

 What can I say that I am sure you do not hear on a regular basis...absolutely fantastic!
I was expecting something a little different and was surprised as these are even better than what I had imagined. I thought for some reason there was an outer shell with a layer underneath that was separate. obviously this is so much better.
It was warm enough yesterday afternoon to try the new gear out and I was absolutely blown away as to how well the jackets worked and the longevity of the cooling process was without comparison to those others I have researched and spoken to others about. My two big lugs took to them right away, they did not offer any resistance and allowed me to put them on without attempting to remove them once I had done so, and this is a feat I must say as my oldest (and newest to the household) has
to wear diapers while in the house and if she doesn't tug at them the other one does. A shame I did not order the vest for myself as I was thinking of doing so but again did not know what to expect. Will likely get a couple of blankets at some point as well...I am absolutely taken by this product bar none.
You have a very vocal advocate over here in support of both your product and the manner in which you treat your customers.
I have enjoyed the time waiting for the arrival of my order and have been met with nothing but well mannered and supportive responses to my numerous emails by Maureen and help with all of these (and I admit likely too many) inquiries of the status of my order. Thank you yet again and I very well may have another order from the post man who delivered the package...he is curious as to what he brings to me as it is always something lately for my dogs...go figure Son moves up and out and
now I cater to these two. Its been a pleasure much thanks
God Bless

Just letting you know that we received the items yesterday and used it straight away.
These really work, it's amazing! Today is just melting hot here in Shepparton but Max (our 1 yr old GSD) is happily napping in the cooling mat at the moment.
He used the vest yesterday and he actually did not mind being outside yesterday for a couple of hours with us.
The other amazing thing is that we were worried that he will just bite the vest or the mat to pieces but he actually has not done that. It's unbelievable!
Thanks for such a great product, I have been telling family and friends about it.

| To all concerned about cooling their beautiful animal down. I have the best friend in the world, my dog Shandy. She is 10 years old and I have struggled every single summer to make her cool. Now that she has cancer and severe arthritis cooling her down the battle has gone. She has health problems I manage with medication but her cooling I could never beat until this bloody brilliant coat.
I am very protective of Shandy, she is all I have and am
extremely fussy with trying different things for her as she does not like wearing coats. Believe me I have tried in the winter when I thought she was cold. From the bottom of mine and Shandy's heart thank you Maureen and John. For the people reading this it's not fake. I have not been asked to write this. Just thank goodness Shandy is cool. She is brilliant. I have even offered Maureen to give my number out to confirm what I have said. Just thanks.

 We recently purchased a vest for our Newfoundland, Turtle, and are so happy with it. We live in the Kimberley and it gets hot here. Since using your vest, Turtle's panting has been minimal and definitely not stress related which is such a relief.
The vest is great for long car trips which are unavoidable here!
He loves it and it keeps him cool for hours.
Thank you!

 Attached is an article for you to put on your website (if you want to) showing our Malvern GSD dogs working at the Stonnington Pets in the Park day in March 2008. The day was stinking hot, but our dogs coped beautifully thanks to their cool coats.

| I am SO impressed with the Coat!. My black Border Collie/Kelpie does well at sit stays, except in the heat, when she folds at the knees! Even if the temperature is around 23-4 degrees C, which is nice for me, she is panting and uncomfortable. The Cooling Vest enabled her to do her sit stays no probs. She worked happy and alert, willing to please me for over an hour in the full sun at approx 30 degrees. She was a different dog. I actually have hope that we might get our
CCD pass this year Ruth Harvey

 I just wanted to say how wonderful the Cool Champions Coats are. I was amazed at just how cool it keeps you pooch on these hot summer days, and I love that
they don't weigh your dog down. Thanks for the wonderful prompt service, I will definitely be purchasing more items from you in the future and recommending your products to other people. I have attached a picture of Bailey looking very "regal" wearing his new coat.Sincerely

I would just like to let you know that I purchased a K9 Cool Vest and Mat for our 15 year old Staffy I ordered the Vest and Mat at lunch time on Friday and it was delivered Monday lunch time as promised as we live in Perth I was amazed at the service by your Company it was fabulous. We are Water Skiers and always take our Staffy to the lakes with us, unfortunately because of her age the Perth heat is a major problem for her, after purchasing the Cool Vest and Mat we set
off to the lake last weekend - 37C heat and she was happy, comfortable and cool in her new coat, we were amazed at the difference - the heat did not bother her at all as she lay under the Gazebo snoring - as only Staffy's can. Thank you so much for a brilliant product that we have recommended to all our friends.

Finally having a warm spell, tried the K9 greyhound rug on our dogs. The temperature was approx.34 deg. our greyhound wore the rugs for the whole day. Greyhounds that were wearing rug were outside laying on concrete, while dogs not wearing them where trying to get out of the heat. Cannot speak highly enough about these rugs, excellent product that work extremely well and can't wait to try them when dogs are racing

I have used both the cool coat and the cool mat for my Bullmastiffs in the last 12 months & they work wonderfully, cooling them down very quickly on the hot days. I had mine with me at the Pet Expo earlier this year & was so inundated with comments on it & where to get them I had to phone home to get the details to pass along to people.
I used the coat on mine on (Sat 27/10/07) as I went to the Euroa & did not hear her panting once the whole way home in the car.
What a wonderful invention they are!

Back on 20/9/06 I purchased a K9 Cooling Vest to suit our young male Staffordshire Bull Terrier, after talking on the phone with you. The vest has been fantastic, keeping " Quinn"- or - "Tribalstaff Prince Otto- CD" cool and content on our many hot summer days.
 Living up in Mansfield (Nth East Country Victoria) summer is consistently hot all through the season, but with the Cool Vest we are able to exercise him safely in the warmth and keep him in top show and trial condition. I've attached a photo of Quinn wearing his vest.
 We have recently added another
Stafford to the family and now wish to purchase another of the vests to suit her. Last time we bought a "Small - Hi Vis Yellow" Vest for Quinn. Cheryl Reyment

I have just attended the Adelaide Royal Show and must sing the praises of the cooling coat.
 Firstly, I believe that it helped to save the life of a Mastiff in our group that started to bloat at the show. The coat was put on him soon after his condition was suspected and was not removed until he arrived at the emergency veterinary clinic. He did seem to settle and fortunately did not progress to a torsion.
On Specials day, I used the coat on my own Mastiff, Clinton (107 kgs at 19 months). The pavillion started to warm up in the early afternoon and he started to pant quite a lot after being exhibited. I prepared the coat and within 10 minutes of placing it on him, he had stopped panting and did not do so for the rest of the afternoon. I had many South Australian exhibitors, as well as some pet owning public, who will be contacting you to purchase a coat. The show people were not only
impressed by its effectiveness, but also that the coat remained dry. I'm sure that you will make many sales in South Australia!Gabrielle Simmonds
