Frequently Asked Questions
- How do cooling bandanas work?
- Most use evaporative cooling — you soak them in water, wring them out, and the evaporation pulls heat away from your dog's neck. Some have pockets for ice packs.
- How long do cooling bandanas last?
- Typically 30 minutes to an hour in hot weather. Re-soak when they feel warm. The AFP Ice Bandana lasts longer thanks to its ice-pack pocket.
- Are cooling bandanas safe for puppies?
- Yes, as long as the bandana fits snugly without being too tight. Always supervise puppies to prevent chewing.
