When it comes to selecting the right coat for your dog, there are important factors to consider.
All pets are susceptible to cold weather, but some are more vulnerable than others. Here are key points to keep in mind:
When it comes to selecting the right coat for your dog, there are important factors to consider.
All pets are susceptible to cold weather, but some are more vulnerable than others. Here are key points to keep in mind:
Weight matters
Lean or underweight pets lack sufficient fat to keep their bodies warm, making them more susceptible to the cold.
Short-legged breeds
Dogs with short legs have their chests and bellies closer to the cold ground, increasing their exposure to chilly ground temperatures. Look for coats that feature chest coverage.
Fur length matters
Pets with short or no fur lose body heat more quickly. For these dogs, consider a double-layer or insulated coat to provide them with the extra warmth they need.
Age and illness
Older or ill pets may have a reduced ability to maintain their body temperature. Consider layering them up, adding or removing layers as needed.
