Consider your dog’s activity level, coat thickness and color, and how much time they spend outdoors in cold, snow, or rain. Nature gave dogs coats, but not all are made for frigid temperatures or wet weather. A healthy, thick-coated dog may not need a jacket, but a senior dog or one with a short or thin coat may appreciate an extra layer—especially in cold weather.
Dog jackets aren’t only for warmth. A jacket can protect hunting dogs from underbrush and outdoor hazards, and reflective styles increase visibility for dogs in the field.

Check the product details to see which measurement matters most. Some styles go by length or girth, but others specify a weight range. A good fit allows for freedom of movement without bunching or slipping.
