When the weather turns wet, you shouldn't have to worry about your dog getting soaked or catching a chill. A shower-proof dog coat is the perfect solution for pet owners who want to keep their furry friends dry, comfortable, and looking stylish no matter what Mother Nature throws their way.
The Driving with Dogs team have been checking out a popular dog coat that keeps mud and rain away from your dog's back and tummy. We're always on the lookout for solutions to mud and grime in the motorhome or car as our two collies really are mud magnets!
Our pick for a design with both functionality and fashion in mind is this coat from Pawfect4Pets. Both our dogs liked wearing it and it offers protection against mud and rain for your dog, as well as a first-line defence against mud and water stains in your vehicle.
This rain-proof dog coat is crafted from water-resistant fabric that effectively repels water, ensuring your dog stays toastie warm even on wet Autumn walks. It's also very good if you go to dog training classes where your dog may have to wait a while for their turn and get chilled.
This dog coat features a soft, breathable inner lining that keeps your dog warm without causing overheating. The coat is designed with an integrated adjustable harness with two D-ring clips for your lead. This provides a snug, comfortable fit for dogs of all sizes as well as making it super easy for you to clip the lead on and off. Whether your dog is sprinting through puddles or taking a leisurely walk, they'll enjoy unrestricted movement and maximum comfort.
Putting the coat on your dog is quick and hassle-free thanks to the adjustable fastenings that allow for easy dressing and a secure fit. You don't have to pull it over your dog's head, which many dogs really dislike. After a rainy walk, the coat can be wiped down with a damp cloth or tossed in the washing machine for a thorough clean. We keep a bin liner in the car for muddy dog coats and towels so it's a single transfer from car to washing machine.
Practicality doesn't come at the expense of style with this coat. It's available in a variety of colours, allowing you to choose the one that best suits your dog's personality. Whether you prefer classic neutrals or bold, bright hues, there's a design to match every taste.
Our collie in the pic is modelling a 4XL size coat. The sizing guide on Pawfect4pets is easy to follow and worked perfectly for us. I particularly liked that they have a wide range of fits for smaller dogs - essential when their tummies are closer to the ground.
