Getting Out

MyDesignerDog — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 18:52:32 +0000

In Chicago, one of the things I have absolutely hated is the fact that it would always rain whenever I have no umbrella with me. This can be quite a hassle especially when I would take a really long time in order to fix my hair only to get wet once I step out of the house. I have not really grown quite used to the weather here, especially since I grew up in California.

Whenever I get out of the house with my pet, I make it a point that I also have a dog rain coat for him. This way, I can make sure that he gets to be protected at all times. He would usually end up looking pretty messy and dirty after having him to come with me when I run a few errands. Whether I like it or not, I now have a coat for myself and my dog which tends to bulk up in my bag.

Our well-loved pooches do have their shiny coats to protect them from the weather and keep them warm. But sometimes, there are days when it can be extremely cold for us and our pets as well. These times can be harmful for your pets, as they need to maintain a certain level of temperature or else they will suffer the consequences of these weather conditions. We cannot simply rely on their coats to keep them warm.

I have always thought that dogs are made to wear coats so that they can stay warm. In the winter, dogs wear coats so that they can get their exercise by being walked even in cold weather. They are also worn inside the house by elderly dogs who suffer from arthritic conditions. Suede dog coats are often preferred for this purpose. They are sometimes lined with fleece to provide the best protection from the cold possible.

It is a surprise then to find that some dogs are being made to wear coats to keep them cool. Called cooling coats they are used to protect dogs from excessive heat of the sun. Some dogs are hairless such as Chihuahuas. Others have very short hair such as mini pinchers. These are dog breeds that will not be able to stand being left under the sun without protection.

Some dog owners use clothing for dogs as a fashion statement, but most dog owners still purchase or make functional pieces of clothing for their dogs. Weather-dependent clothing makes up a large portion of the available clothing for dogs. A poly-fleece dog coat is great for dogs that do not handle extreme weather conditions well, specially the cold weather. A lot of dog clothing manufacturers have designed clothing items meant for various types of weather.

Thermal clothing, such as jogging suits, jackets, coats, sweaters, and sweatshirts are common types of dog clothing available in the market today. In addition to cold weather clothing, a lot of manufacturers make swimsuits for dogs to use during the warmer months. When choosing clothing for dogs, it is very important to consider clothing that is the proper fit for each individual dog. It is crucial that a dog wearing clothing is watched by the dog owner and if the owner cannot watch the dog, then the dog clothing should be removed.
