Are Dog Coats Really Necessary

By Sabastian Cruzz


You may not like the idea of dressing up your dog, but there are so many other pet owners who would spend the time looking for designer outfits for their pooches. There is a growing industry for dog coats that are not only fashionable but also functional. Not only are these outfits create a following among dog lovers, they are also being recommended to protect pets from unfriendly weather conditions.

Dogs could wear weatherproof jackets as protection from the rain, too. Your pet would look fabulous even on a wet day, especially if he's wearing some matching paw booties. When he's done with his walk, he won't be bringing in mud into your room, and his paws would not be as dirty. Let him wear a rain jacket with a hoodie and he would definitely cause quite a stir among the lady dogs!

Some dogs are given working vests as their uniforms while "on duty". They could be assisting some senior citizens or other people with disabilities. The uniform vests would tell people that they have duties to perform. They could be wearing a vest with the local police station's logo on it as a symbol that they are working as police canines. Then, there are also some pets that are dressed up by their owners for special occasions. So many designs that are not only whimsical but also functional are now available in stores these days.

You would find a lot of styles available, such as a full-gear sweater for very cold weathers or a half-pullover dog shirt for warm days. If your dog has sensitive skin, you may want to look for gears made of hypo-allergenic materials. There are also clothes made of environmentally friendly fabrics, if you want to be eco-conscious about your choice.

Choose a style that is not only fashionable, but also practical. Avoid styles that have zippers, especially if your dog is the hairy type. Hair or skin can get caught in a zipper and could hurt your dog seriously.

There are shops that sell canine clothes made for special breeds such as bulldogs, Great Danes, greyhounds and dachshunds. Choose the right color that will complement your dog's mane or skin tone. Have fun making choosing the design and imagining how adorable your pet would look in them.

Where can you find the best dog coats? Most large pet shops carry them and you could even contact your local breeder who may know specialty stores in the area selling them. These days, it could be easier to just do an online search and order from webstores that sell pet accessories. Just have your dog's best interest at heart and for sure, you'll find the best style that suits your pet.
