When the temperature spikes and the pavement starts sizzling, every dog parent knows the signs: panting, pacing, and desperate flops onto the nearest cool floor. So, if you’re looking for a budget-friendly way to help your pup beat the heat, Aldi might have just dropped your favorite summer find.
This fun seasonal item is already turning heads for being cute, affordable, and totally functional. And while Aldi is known for its fan-favorite grocery deals, this under-the-radar pet drop is proof they know how to deliver on summer comfort, too.
The Heart to Tail Round Pet Cooling Mat, now available at Aldi for just $17, utilizes pressure-activated gel to provide instant relief from summer heat with no water or electricity required. It’s designed to automatically recharge after periods of rest, allowing you to use it repeatedly throughout the day.

The round shape is perfect for dogs who love to sprawl, and it easily fits inside crates, carriers, or shady backyard setups. Even better? It comes in a beautiful Green Leaf pattern for pups who prefer to keep things botanical.
This mat is especially helpful for senior pets, dogs with thick coats, or pups prone to overheating. Many pet owners also use it indoors on hot days when their pets are glued to tile or hardwood floors. It can double as a comfy spot to lie down after a walk or become a go-to naptime spot for heat-sensitive pups.
For under $17, you get a gel-cooling design that’s similar to more expensive versions found at big-box stores. That makes it a smart pick for pet parents who want to keep their dogs cool without breaking the bank or compromising on cuteness.
Whether you’re heading to the park, planning a road trip, or just trying to get through a backyard BBQ without your pup melting into the grass, this Aldi-exclusive mat is the chill essential you didn’t know you needed.
