What makes a good dog raincoat?
What makes a good dog raincoat is water repellency, comfort, good fit and durable materials. Look for helpful features like leash holes, adjustable straps and reflective trim for utility, comfort and safety. The best type of dog raincoat for your dog will vary depending on where and how you will use it. In warmer climates, a lightweight and breathable rain jacket is often best for comfort. Dogs in colder areas may benefit from a warmer or insulated dog rain jacket.
How do I put a raincoat on my dog?
Put a raincoat on your dog by following the product instructions that came with it. Most raincoats for dogs fasten around the chest and belly using adjustable fasteners to get the perfect fit. For these, you simply position the blanket portion over your dog's back and then fasten the chest and stomach fasteners so the coat fits snugly. Other styles may slip over the head and fasten with only a belly belt or fastener. Read all instructions carefully and remember to allow just enough room that you can fit two fingers under the fastened areas.
