Poor puppies, imagine only being able to cool down by sticking out your tongue? It makes sweat seem almost like a luxury doesn’t? This vest uses evaporative cooling to keep your pooch comfy during the summer. The vest is made of three layers of polyester that combine hydrophilic and hydrophobic fibers that, when soaked in water and worn by your dog can keep him or her cool for up to two hours.

The outer air mesh layer conducts body heat away from a dogs body, the middle layer absorbs and holds cool water, while the inner layer actually cools your dog.

“RoamEO has been designed so that you can set up a GPS Fence. RoamEO uses GPS coordinates that you establish by walking the perimeter of your desired fence, and commits them to memory. If your pet exits this perimeter, an audible alarm will sound. For example, you may wish to establish your property line as the perimeter for your pet. After setting up your fence, this information would be stored in your system and if your dog wanders off your property, the alarm will sound. Because this boundary is electronic, you can erase and create new ones as often as you like, giving you the flexibility for any situation or condition.”

The Dog-e-Tag is worn on your dog’s collar just like a metal tag, but it can store up to 40 lines of information. With home addresses, home phone numbers, cell phone number, license numbers, and microchip numbers multiple tags are sometimes necessary to hold all your pets information.

If your pet has special needs, those too can be stored on the tag. Things such as sight and hearing disabilities, arthritis, and allergies are important for people who may have to temporarily care for your pet to know. In addition to all this, the high resolution digital display can be viewed when either of the two buttons are pushed, and all the information can be scrolled, forward or backward, stopping at any time.

I have 2 cats. City cats. Which means that they cannot roam free and hunt at their leisure. No. They must get all done up in their harnesses, then be attached to a leash. Which then proceeds to get tangled around table and chair legs, me, and the both of them. I see real possibility in the Cat Veranda. I’ll still take them outside, because despite the moments of chaos and ridiculousness, they’re pretty darn cut out there, and they really love to be out. But this could be the perfect alternative for times when I’m too busy to be outside with them, like when I’m posting to GadgetLiving.
