FAQs
How do I measure my dog for the coat?
Measure your dog's back length from the base of the neck to the base of the tail. Also, measure the chest girth. Consult the size chart to determine the correct size.
Is the coat machine washable?
Yes, the coat is machine washable. Use cold water and a gentle detergent.
What if the coat doesn't fit?
Check the return policy of the retailer. Ensure you keep all original packaging and tags.
Can the coat be used in snow?
Yes, the coat can be used in snowy conditions, but it's primarily designed for rain protection and moderate cold. For extended periods in deep snow, consider additional insulation.
How do I clean the coat after a muddy walk?
Allow the mud to dry, then brush it off. Wash the coat in a washing machine using cold water and a gentle detergent. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat.
Are the Velcro straps durable?

What is the coat made of?

Troubleshooting
Coat seems too loose.
Tighten the Velcro straps for a more secure fit. If the coat is still too loose, you may need a smaller size.
Leg loops are not staying in place.
Make sure the leg loops are properly adjusted. Ensure the coat is the correct size, if too large the leg loops will not function correctly.
Coat is not keeping the dog warm.
Check the weather conditions; in extremely cold temperatures, consider layering the coat with an additional sweater. Ensure the coat fits properly to trap the dog's body heat.
