Common questions
What size dog does it suit?
Fit is by measurement, not breed. Take your dog's back length and chest girth and match the size chart.
Does my dog actually need a coat?
Fine-coated, small, young or senior dogs feel the cold and benefit most. Thick double-coated breeds usually don't and can overheat.
Is it washable?
Most are wipe-clean or gentle-machine-washable. Air-dry to preserve any waterproof finish.
