I had a Westie who was terrified of storms. I live in Florida and the storms come up quickly and end quickly. I only put it on her for the time of the storm. I wouldn't leave it in her outside or in an un-air conditioned house.

I never even thought about how warm the Thundershirt was because it was keeping my dog calm. It's not usually hot when it rains. That's a good thing. My dog has slept in in as well. So I'm not sure that being to hot is an issue for me.

Only if there is no wind.This summer it should be great!but,this time of year where I live is just to breezy.

Absolutely! We used ours at home & up at our ranch (while our pup was small). I would suggest having a towel to drape over top as it it netting & sun beating down on top might get pretty warm. Have fun!

Go by the weight of your dog. If your dog has a large chest, you may want to go one size bigger. There is Velcro on various locations on the shirt, so you can adjust it if need be. I use one on my dog and it does help. She hates thunder and still will get anxious, but it does help to keep her calm.

Not really. We live up north and over the summer my daughter would get very hot and sweaty. It's great from the sun but keeps it warm under it

Yes. This is very plush and warm, I would not use it in the summer time at all.

I am not sure. If she is dressed cooly I would not think so. My baby was a winter baby so I had the opposite concern. I would suggest contacting Ergobaby or checking their website on how to avoid baby overheating. Congratulations!

I have a golden and the collar works just fine on her. I do keep her hair trimmed rather short in the summer because it is so hot in the South. She stays inside and only goes out with supervision. My girl is a senior and has poor eyesight and hearing. The collar has made it easier to warn her of danger and to get her attention when it is needed. I like these collars...I have two and plan on purchasing another one.

It's a little warm but hey, pretty much anything is a little warm when you're concealing in the summer in a hot climate. It is adjustable, so you can loosen it if needed. I actually wear mine jogging. Love this because it is very flexible to use.

Our south central Texas climate is very mild, but in winter the temp drops in the teens. That's when I bring my 3 big dogs inside to sleep at night. When the sun is shining they stay outside and I add some pine bark shavings as insulation. That works for us!

My son definately gets hot in this, but I usually just have him in a onsie and try not to be out I. The 90 degree weather. My so. Is hot blooded so I also put an ice pack between him and I.

No, it is too hot for this spring/summer weather. I remove it from the bed at night as it is just too hot.

I purchased this as a gift for my daughter and she recently had the same thing happen. It is quite warm where she lives and she wondered if it was the heat.

I live in Texas and my dog only wears it during times that I know she will be under stress from thunder storms or loud noises. So far she hasn't been to hot with it on, but I've only used it for about three weeks.

Mollie does not have this issue. She loves people and I have to work to keep her from jumping on others. The calming coat has been a big help with thunder storms and toe nail clipping. I noticed in one video I saw, this issue was addressed and it seemed to help that dog.
