In an effort to help our aging pup, Biscuit, cope with her hot flashes, we ordered a cooling pad (from Amazon, of course) sight unseen and fingers crossed. It arrived yesterday, and I’m grateful that’s she’s taken to it.
Biscuit has slept on our bed her whole life (lucky dog!) but lately her hot flashes had gotten so bad that she couldn’t relax, much less sleep. Neither could anyone else. She panted so hard, trying to cool herself down. Given her age, 14-and-a-half years old, it was taxing and very hard to watch. Hence, the cooling mat.
It arrived yesterday afternoon, and what a difference it has already made! I’m so grateful that she’s not panting and vibrating uncontrollably next to me as I write this, but sleeping soundly instead. I’m grateful she’s gotten relief.
Rest and be thankful. ~William Wordsworth
