A short-coated dog in a British winter loses heat fast once the rain gets through, and whippets, greyhounds, staffies, pointers and most smooth-coated small breeds have no undercoat to fall back on. A raincoat is the difference between a walk they enjoy and one they endure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePolyester is the right fabric for this. It sheds water instead of absorbing it — which is exactly where knitted jumpers fail, because wet wool or acrylic holds water against the dog and makes them colder than wearing nothing. If you already have our \u003ca href=\"\/products\/knitted-dog-jumper-winter-cable-knit-sweater-small-dogs\"\u003eknitted jumper\u003c\/a\u003e, this is the layer for actual rain and that one is for indoors and dry cold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also dries quickly and shakes off, so it goes back on the hook rather than over a radiator for two days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTwo honest things.\u003c\/strong\u003e The supplier calls this a large dog coat. \u003cstrong\u003eIt is not.\u003c\/strong\u003e The sizes we stock run to a 52cm chest and a 42cm back, which is a Cocker Spaniel or a Border Collie at most — nothing like a Labrador. Check the chart below against your dog before ordering. And it is a shower layer, not insulation: for a dog that genuinely feels the cold you want a padded winter coat underneath or instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight polyester — sheds water rather than soaking it up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour sizes with real chest, back and neck measurements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDries fast and shakes off\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuits short-coated and smooth-coated dogs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGold, so it stands out on a grey afternoon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits dogs up to a 52cm chest and 42cm back\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin:20px 0;border:1px solid #E6DAC7;border-radius:14px;overflow:hidden;background:#FFFFFF;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background:#2A3A2A;padding:14px 18px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:0;font-size:12px;letter-spacing:0.12em;text-transform:uppercase;color:#D9B48C;\"\u003ePawbrio product guide\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin:4px 0 0;font-size:18px;font-weight:600;color:#FAF6EF;\"\u003eSize chart — all measurements in cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto;\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:14px;table-layout:auto;\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr style=\"background:#F1E7D8;color:#2A3A2A;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:10px 12px;\"\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:10px 12px;\"\u003eChest\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:10px 12px;\"\u003eBack length\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:10px 12px;\"\u003eNeck\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#FFFFFF;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;font-weight:700;color:#A6764C;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003eS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003e25–34\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003e26\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003e28\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#FAF6EF;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;font-weight:700;color:#A6764C;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003eM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003e34–40\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003e30\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003e34\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#FFFFFF;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;font-weight:700;color:#A6764C;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003eL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003e40–46\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003e35\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003e38\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background:#FAF6EF;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;font-weight:700;color:#A6764C;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003eXL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003e46–52\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003e42\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:10px 12px;border-top:1px solid #EFE6D8;\"\u003e42\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"padding:14px 18px;background:#FAF6EF;border-top:1px solid #E6DAC7;font-size:14px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color:#2A3A2A;\"\u003eHow to measure — take all three:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eChest\u003c\/strong\u003e around the widest part just behind the front legs, \u003cstrong\u003eback length\u003c\/strong\u003e from the base of the neck to the base of the tail, and \u003cstrong\u003eneck\u003c\/strong\u003e where a collar sits.

Put it on indoors first and let them walk around in it for a few minutes before the first wet walk, so the feel of it is not new at the same time as the rain. Check nothing pulls at the front legs and that they can squat properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUsing it safely\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake it off indoors — a damp coat left on traps moisture against the skin, which is how a dog ends up with a sore patch. Do not leave a dog unattended in it in a crate or garden where it could snag. Watch for rubbing under the front legs on the first few wears, which is where a coat that is slightly too small shows up first. It is a rain layer, not warmth: a dog that is shivering needs a padded coat, not this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHose or rinse off mud rather than letting it dry in, then hand wash cool and hang to drip dry. Do not tumble dry and do not iron — heat damages the water-shedding surface, which is the only thing this coat is for. Check the fastenings each wash; they take more strain than the fabric does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDelivery \u0026amp; returns\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFree tracked UK delivery on every Pawbrio order.
