Compare the coats
The rain shell
Rain, mud, wet snow and slush. Keeps the belly and legs dry. No lining, so it suits dogs whose own coat does the warming.
The warm fleece
Cold days, light snow and drizzle. Warm, soft fleece that keeps the chest and belly cozy without the bulk.
Warm + waterproof
Snow, slush and cold rain, or any cold day you want the legs covered too. Fleece-lined, waterproof, all four legs.
Below 20°F, no coat makes a long walk safe on its own. Keep walks shorter and watch your dog.
Reviews
“He has the wide chest of a bully and really hates extreme temps. We have tried several different suits that were too tight in the chest, didn’t have 4 leg coverage or were not very warm.”
“I have an 80 lb doberman who has a deep chest and clothes never fit him right. This jacket fits great!”
“We have a Great Dane English mastiff mix and have never found a coat that fit him so well. 160lbs”
FAQ
The Cozy Hugger is a double-sided fleece for cold fall and winter days, light snow and drizzle included. The Snow Warrior is for snow, slush, sleet, freezing rain and wind: a microfleece lining inside a waterproof, windproof shell, with full leg coverage.
It isn't waterproof, but light snow and a passing drizzle brush right off, and plenty of our customers' dogs play in the snow in it. On long walks in steady rain, heavy wet snow or slush it soaks through over time, so the Puddle Jumper Raincoat or the Snow Warrior Suit is the better pick. Towel off and dry the jacket after a snowy walk.
Often not. Huskies, malamutes and other thick double coats handle cold well on their own. Thin-coated, short-haired, older and very lean dogs feel it more. Our guide on which big dogs need a winter coat walks through it breed by breed.
It depends on the dog: coat, size, age, and whether it's wet. On very cold days, keep walks shorter, coat or no coat. Our guide How cold is too cold for dogs? walks through the signs to watch for.
Measure the back length and the chest. The back length picks the size (right on the line, take the smaller one), and if the chest is over that size's limit, go one up. Both coats have a tail drawcord that shortens the back about 2–3″. The size guide works it out from both numbers.
Try the drawcords first: most coats that feel a bit big fit once they're snugged up. Still not right? Exchanges are free, and returns are easy. Message us with a side photo and we'll tell you which size to swap to. Final sale items can't be returned or exchanged.
