Cooling dog collars
A cooling collar is chilled in advance rather than worn as an everyday collar, giving a dog a few hours of extra comfort on a genuinely hot walk. We stock the Kingdom Pet Cooling Collar for that purpose, alongside our normal range of everyday collars for dogs who do not need one.
How a cooling collar works
The Kingdom Pet Cooling Collar is chilled in a fridge beforehand and keeps a dog cool for up to four hours on hot walks, which makes it worth planning ahead for rather than reaching for on the way out the door. It works alongside a dog's own cooling mechanisms rather than replacing them, so it is a helpful extra on a warm day rather than a reason to walk during the hottest part of it.
It is not a substitute for the basic rules of hot-weather walking — avoiding the midday heat, carrying water, and watching for signs your dog is struggling — and should be treated as one part of managing heat rather than the whole plan.
Everyday collars for the rest of the year
For normal daily wear, our wider dog-collars range covers everything from the Dog Collar Classic Cool Grey and Dog Collar Design Stars White on Cool Grey, both from Red Dingo's everyday range, through to personalised and reflective options. 'Cool grey' in these names refers to the colour rather than any cooling function, so it is worth checking a listing properly if you are specifically after the fridge-cooled collar rather than a colour.
A dog can wear their everyday collar alongside a cooling collar rather than swapping between the two, since the cooling collar is generally an addition for hot weather rather than a replacement for ID tags and normal daily wear.

Common questions
- How long does a cooling collar stay cold?
- The Kingdom Pet Cooling Collar is designed to keep a dog cool for up to four hours after being chilled in the fridge, so it is worth timing when you put it on around your actual walk rather than chilling it too far in advance.
- Can my dog wear a cooling collar and a normal collar together?
- Yes, a cooling collar is generally worn as an addition for hot weather rather than a replacement for an everyday collar carrying ID tags, so there is no reason not to use both if that suits your dog.
- Is a cooling collar enough to keep my dog safe in hot weather?
- No, it should be treated as one part of managing heat rather than the whole solution — avoiding the hottest part of the day, carrying water, and watching for signs of heat stress all matter alongside any cooling product you use.
- What does 'Cool Grey' mean on some of your collar listings?
- It refers to the colour of the collar rather than any cooling function, so if you are specifically looking for the fridge-cooled Kingdom Pet Cooling Collar rather than a grey-coloured everyday collar, it is worth checking the product description before ordering.
