Engineered for the harshest Australian conditions

Because they’re family, too.

Every summer in Australia, countless dogs suffer silently in the heat. A 20-year study found that their risk of death rises nearly 10% on days over 32 °C, and climbs higher with every degree above that. For brachycephalic breeds, seniors, or even the healthiest pups, heatstroke can strike fast - and it can be fatal.

We’d never leave our children in a hot car. Yet every day, our best friends wait for us at home, exposed to the same unforgiving temperatures. They trust us completely to keep them safe.

That’s why we built K9CRIBS - the world’s first smart, climate-controlled kennel. A safe haven where your dog can stay cool on 40 °C days, warm through winter nights, and comfortable no matter the weather.

Because loving your dog means more than food and walks. It means protecting them when they need you most.

Cold Climate Health Risks for Dogs: A Quick Overview

When dogs are exposed to very cold temperatures for extended periods, they can face several specific health challenges. Among the most notable are:


Hypothermia: Prolonged cold exposure can cause a dog’s body temperature to drop dangerously low, leading to symptoms like intense shivering, lethargy, and in severe cases, potential organ failure if left untreated.

Frostbite: Areas like the ears, tail, and paws are particularly vulnerable to frostbite in extreme cold, where the tissue can become damaged due to freezing.

Immune System Strain: Continuous cold stress can weaken a dog’s immune system over time, making them more susceptible to illnesses.

In essence, just like with heat, a stable, warm environment can help prevent these cold related health issues and keep dogs healthy and comfortable.

When the Weather Turns Against Them

How Heat and Humidity Can Harm Your Dog’s Skin - and How You Can Stop It

Just like us, dogs feel every change in the weather. When temperatures climb and humidity rises, it doesn’t just make them uncomfortable - it can seriously affect their skin and overall health.

How Heat and Humidity Affect Dogs

When the air is warm and damp, moisture gets trapped under a dog’s coat, creating the perfect environment for bacteria and yeast to thrive. This can lead to:


Hot spots and skin infections that spread quickly.


Yeast buildup in skin folds or under thick fur.


Ear irritation in breeds with heavy or floppy ears.

Breeds like Bulldogs, Pugs, and Huskies are especially vulnerable because their coats and skin folds retain heat and moisture longer.

Dry Heat Can Be Just as Harmful

Dry air and harsh sun can strip away natural oils, causing itchy, flaky skin and even sunburn on exposed areas like noses and ears - particularly in short-haired breeds.

Why Climate Control Matters

A stable environment helps prevent most of these problems before they start.

Ideal comfort levels for dogs are:


Temperature: 18–24°C


Humidity: 40–60%

Maintaining this balance keeps their coat healthy, prevents infection, and reduces stress from temperature swings.
