Product Information
Full details
The Kurgo Core Sweater is designed for dog owners seeking a reliable, comfortable thermal layer for their pets during cold-weather outings. Crafted from a 10 oz. knit fleece, it provides significant warmth without restricting a dog's natural range of motion, making it an excellent choice for active dogs or those needing extra insulation under a heavier coat. While highly versatile, users should be aware that the sweater is not waterproof and may require a shell over it during heavy rain or snow.

Can this be used as an underlayer?

Troubleshooting
The sweater keeps sliding to one side.
Adjust the chest and neck straps equally to ensure even tension on both sides of the dog's torso.
Harness attachment point doesn't align.
Use the two-way zipper to adjust the opening position along the back to better match your specific harness leash attachment location.
Hook and loop closure is losing stickiness.
Inspect the closure for trapped hair or debris and remove it; ensure the closure is pressed firmly together after each use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, measure your dog around the base of the neck and the widest part of the chest before adjusting the fasteners. To put the sweater on, slide the dog's head through the neck opening, secure the chest straps, and adjust for a snug feel. To care for the sweater, it is recommended to wash on a gentle cycle or hand wash to maintain the integrity of the knit fleece. Always air dry the garment to prevent shrinkage or damage to the reflective materials.
