    Love them <3 aren't really all that bulky. I know there are some that are a bit thinner, but these are still awesome

    Thank god for crates haha I was dreading putting her in the car because she stunk something awful. We nearly didn't find the lake, but so glad we did.

    And yes love the swamp coolers and they definitely make a difference as far as the girls and their heat tolerance especially for Karma. Oddly enough she has the most trouble with heat, but the vest helps her out a lot.

    They work through evaporative cooling... you wet the vest and the place it on the dog. As the water evaporates it cools the dog. Same principle as people sweating ... as the sweat evaporates it pulls the heat away from the skin.
