Give your dog a hug from us

I love dog people.  I mean – true dog people.  And for that reason, I love doing business with companies that are managed by dog people.

Take D-Fa, for example.  We’re having a very hot summer here in Christchurch and Daisy really needs her cool collar.  Unfortunately, the ice pack insert has lost some of its fluid and is no longer working as well.  I contacted D-Fa and they said they’d send me a replacement pack for only $5.00.

Well, the pack has arrived (Daisy is very happy).  And I’m happy because I got good service from them but also a nice note:

Hope this finds you well.  Sorry you didn’t have these for the screamingly hot day in Christchurch yesterday, but here they are now (hope it doesn’t start to snow as a result).

Thanks and let us know if there is anything else we can do for you.

Cheers and give your dog a hug from us.

I’ve previously endorsed Cool Collars and recommend them to my clients, particularly those that own elderly dogs.  I’m also a fan of their Float Doggy flotation vests.

Thanks D-Fa…from a satisfied dog person (customer)

Cool Collars for summertime heat

In Christchurch, we are starting to get some hot summer days.  I walk Daisy twice each day and our early morning walks ensure that we escape the summer heat.  However, the pavement heats up during the afternoons and even when we walk in the evening, it can be hot for Daisy.

That’s where the Cool-Collar comes in.  Made by D-Fa based in beautiful Wanaka, New Zealand, this collar features a reusable chill strip insert.  As the insert (or ice, if you use it instead) melts, it cools your dog’s neck and chest.  This helps them to manage the summer heat better as panting is really the only other option for them to cool down.

I don’t recommend products often, but this is one that I definitely support.
