Frequently Asked Questions

Do dogs get cold?

Yes, dogs can get cold. While arctic breeds (huskies, malamutes) are wearing the equivalent of a high-end layering system, other breeds are wearing a t-shirt. Very young or old dogs will feel the cold more than healthy adults, and very small dogs tend to get colder more quickly than larger ones.

Tip: do some short test adventures outside in early winter with your dog. You can get an idea of how comfortable they are outside in different temperatures and what dog jackets or boots might be beneficial for them.

What kind of coat does my dog need for winter?

Determining the best dog coat for your canine depends on several factors: breed, coat thickness, climate, and activity level. Smaller breeds, short-haired breeds, and older dogs often benefit most from added warmth. Consider a waterproof and insulated coat for snowy or rainy conditions. For milder climates, a lightweight, water-resistant jacket may suffice. Always prioritize a coat that allows your dog freedom of movement while providing adequate protection from the elements.

How to measure winter dog gear?

To find the right size for dog winter coats and other apparel, you’ll want to measure around the widest part of the rib cage, similar to how to measure a dog for a harness. Based on this measurement, you can choose between sizes XXS to XL.

What other winter gear do I need for my dog?

In addition to getting dog boots and jackets, consider these essential winter items for your dog:

A safety light or reflective gear to enhance visibility during low-light conditions.
A warm, insulated dog bed to provide comfort and warmth.
Dog socks to make dog boots more comfortable and secure.

What are winter activities for my dog and I?

Winter offers a world of adventure for you and your furry companion. From brisk walks and snowshoeing to thrilling activities like skijoring or mushing, there's something for every dog-human duo. Remember to always prioritize your dog's safety and comfort by dressing them appropriately for the weather.
