Winter is coming, and you need to ensure your furry buddy is protected from the elements. Without protective clothing, dogs use up a lot of energy to stay warm, resulting in a moody and sluggish pet during the cold months.
Here are some products that will help keep your dog warm – fashionably!
- Fleece jacket
Not all fleece jackets are made equal. Take a look at the material and the insulating level it provides. A fleece jacket should keep your dog warm on chilly days and cool during the height of summer. Fleece-lined coats are popular among dog owners because they don’t go out of style, and they are perfect year round.
- Parka coat
A parka coat with a thick collar, usually decorated with fur, is one of the most stylish ways to keep your pet warm. This type of pet coat will make your dog extra comfortable and cozy. You have the option to go for a ready-made parka or opt for a custom-made coat that fits your dog perfectly and beautifully.
- Rain coat
A wet dog is not a happy dog. If you’re going for a walk and there’s a chance of rain and maybe a bit of snow, a rain- and weather-repellant coat is a good choice for your canine friend.
Bonus tips: When indoors, keeping your dog warm can be handled easily and inexpensively. Childrens’ outgrown fleece wear can be styled to fit your dog. You’ll need a pair of scissors to cut the fleece. Because fleece does not unravel, no sewing is needed. Old sweatshirts are another option. It is important to have warm bedding for your pet placed in a designated area away from doors and drafts.
