Rosie is the typical long-haired Newf. Naturally, she gravitates toward laying on the coolest surfaces in the house, which turn out to be the wood and tile flooring. I worry that her joints and bones are always in contact with a hard surface and have no cushioning to protect her. She does have a thin foam bed but it warms her up even more and she won't lay on it for longer than a few minutes before going to the floor. I've heard of gel cooling mats but have heard some bad reviews.
Have you guys ever used these gel/water cooling mats and have they worked for you? What brand are they? If not, then what other options can we look into to keep Rosie off the floor?
