When it came to getting a coat for our dogs, we’ve thankfully finally learned our lesson from trying to order from other brands and stuck with Ruffwear. Ruffwear apparel and harnesses have a superior fit, durability, and functionality. Even top name brands can’t compete. This coat is perfect for our very mild NC coast winters and they fit both of our completely differently shaped muts like a glove! The shoulder movement isn’t at all restricted which is key for active pups and the buckles are far superior to zippers and Velcro closures of other coats.
