Best Parka for Dogs
-
darling coat easy to put on
He gets too hot - lol. In winter in the snow it works just fine, The guys love it - looks like a military jacket with pockets - could do without the hood. It would be good to have a head band for his ears instead
-
Another one that runs a bit large.
Even though it is big on her I usually double it up over a sweater to help fill the space. Nice that the hood is removable, too.
-
Coat
My dog loves his coat and it keeps him warm. It's short enough underneath so he doesnt pee on it. Love that the hood comes off, because hoods just don't work on my dog.

Puffer Coat
My little Deer Chihuahua is 21 years old & has arthritis so it hurt her to put on her ther jacket. With her new coat it's easy to put on her & she stays nice & warm.

Perfect Lightweight Jacket
I love these Frisco coats! They’re warm without bulk, great water repelling in light rain, easy to put in and take off, and the fit is perfect. My “go to” coat in moderate temperatures or light rain or snow. I also bought the lined heavyweight Frisco coat for colder days.
Best Fleece Dog Jacket
-
Perfect and Warm
Lucy is 45lbs mix. Her measurements are neck- 17”, chest 30”, and back length 19”. Ordered an X-Large and it fits great! Also quality is much better than expected- thick and warm with a nice inner lining. Hole for harness or collar leash hook up a plus. This is just super adorable and comfy!
-
Adorable fleece jacket
I purchased both pink and teal colors for my puppies. They are about 15 lbs and medium size is a bit snug on them, but they are still growing :) Colorblock design is so cute and fleece seems to keep them warm. Zipper pocket is perfect size for airtags. They also look great after washing in a cold cycle and hang air drying.

Puppy Patagonia?
Super cute & heavy weight.. I call this my dogs "winter jacket" double lined. Happy I sized up because it is so thick.
Best Waterproof Dog Coat

Warm!
This Actually fits our Anatolian Shepherd! It was so hard finding a warm winter jacket that fit his long back! This is absolutely perfect and is easy to get on and off!
-
Hurtta coat
Love everything about this coat! The fabric, the adjustability, the color, the lightness yet warmth, and the ease of putting it on!! My dog RUNS into her coat. I call it her sleeping bag !!!
-
LOVE this coat!
I have a dog that is a weird mix...chihuahua, dachshund, and beagle...and she is very difficult to fit! This coat is perfectly adjustable and the longer length option was perfect for her! She is also very cold natured and seems appreciative of the windproof coverage and the full coverage provided on her stomach and chest (unlike most dog coats). So glad I paid for this coat. It is top notch!
Best Dog Coat for Large Dogs
-
Perfect Winter Coat
Saw this and thought my dog would love it! Fits great and very high quality. The velcro makes it easy to adjust for his deep chest. Good quilting on inner fabric, easy to wipe clean and keeps him dry and warm
-
Durable
New pup and she needed a Carhartt jacket too. We were so impressed with the durability of this jacket! The pups run through briars in the woods and jackets still look new! Also easy to wash!! Will only buy Carhartt in future for it’s durability and warmth for pups.
-
Cute jacket but thin
It’s a well made and cute jacket. It is pretty thin but good to layer for extra warmth. The Velcro makes that jacket very customizable given sizing.
Best Dog Coat for Small Dogs
-
Super soft & fits right
I got a size small for my 10 pound maltese and it fits her perfectly. It feels soft & super insulated.
-
Awesome suit!!
I got this cause it’s starting to drop in temp. I was worried about the sizing for my dog cause his measurements are 21 in neck, 31 in chest and 22 in in length but it fit him very very well and he looks so snazzy I’m it!!!
-
Another great coat from GF Pet
This is the 2nd coat I've purchased from Chewy/GF Pet...the quality is excellent, the fit is perfect (thanks to grippy velcro closures) and the thoughtful details make them a cut above...I went with the closest measurement for his back/chest (size M for a 15 lb. Border Terrier mix.) This coat is very easy to put on/take off and the hood tacks back securely with velcro and stays completely out of his eyes/face (my dog doesn't enjoy wearing a hood.) It's lined with a soft, cozy fleece material for extra warmth (well-timed for January as temps in NYC really dipped!) He hasn't worn the easily detachable pants yet (@hugotmyheart prefers no...
Best Dog Snow Coat
-
I'm happy it fit
I have to say it's a real challenge to find coats/clothes for my 90-pound Bully and to find this snowsuit and it FITS. PERFECTLY! I am in LOVE! Biggs is not a huge fan of wearing clothes and getting him in this snowsuit is easy on us both. Although we haven't had the chance to try it out in the weather just yet, I'm sure he will be nice and toasty.
-
FANTASTIC
I have recommended this suit to everyone! Pittie parents, behold. Our 72lb long legged, chesty girl wears a 24M and it fits perfectly. Bought the extreme warmer for her short squaty brother who's about 20lbs lighter than her
-
Peep
I am so impressed with this snowsuit! It is like it was made for my 8.2 pound Chihuahua. What a great product! Size 10S
Best Dog Peacoat

Love it
The small size fits our 10-lb poodle mix perfectly. It’s soft, warm, and we like the Velcro adjustable fitting.
-
Great looking coat
Great looking and warm coat. Beautifully made. It fits my puppy now and hopefully will fit when cold weather hits.
-
Paddington Bear Vibes
This jacket is so cute. My toy poodle reminds me of Paddington Bear when he's wearing it. For reference, he is 6 pounds and I ordered a size small. It's a little big but he's still able to go potty without soiling it.
Best Reversible Dog Coat

Well made, good fit.
Easy to use for 8 week old pitbull puppy. Good coverage and fit. Will replace with larger one as he grows.

I buy this one for a doggie that is at a shelter to keep him warm and cozy in cold days. I think is a cute jacket!

Sharp Dresser
I love the style of this jacket and the ease of putting and taking it off my dog. My dog is 15 with arthritis in his joints. This jacket has Velcro around the neck and stomach making it a breeze to put on and take off..

Best Corduroy Dog Coat

Buddy's New Coat
I wish I'd of ordered this sooner than what I did, as our temperatures were sub zero and our little Buddy only had a sweater. This coat will keep him toasty warm in the next cold weather.
-
Great for outdoor active puppy! Stays on her, and she is noticably warm in it.
It's the only coat she and her very active 8 month old littermate haven't chewed holes in! She likes it, and it's still on her in the morning! Looks comfortable, non-restricting.
-
Winter coat
Love this coat. I needed a size larger because I put it on over her halter. We fold the hood back a little because it gets in her way. It keeps her warm!!
Best Snood-Style Dog Coat
-
Too cute!
My dog hates things on his head, but didn’t seem to mind this. The fit is as described. I have a 17lb morkie who is quite long and the medium was on point.
-
A winner for my boy.
It’s perfect for those whose fur babes won’t wear a sweater/clothing piece with arm holes. My one poodle loves them. But the one in the snood does not. And he was ok with this. I was so happy. It fit him perfect. Just slides over head, caps the shoulders with waisted velco. It’s heavy and feels good! Won’t be wearing it till winter so I don’t know how it washes yet. But it’s stylish. He is about 43lbs still growing a bit more. The XL fit him great cause you can adjust the waist.
-

Best Dog Raincoat

Second order fit better
We ordered one based on the measurements shown and it was WAY too big. Have it to a friend’s greyhound and reordered one size down.
-
Dry dog!
The XXL fits my Great Pyrenees perfectly! I’m so excited to have something to keep him dry. He doesn’t mind getting rained on, but it’s a pain to towel dry him after returning inside. This size was big enough to fit around his chest. I love the harness flap. I don’t think the hood will stay up, as he keeps his head low on walk, so it covers his eyes. Also he looks so adorable in it!
-
Just in time
We just had a monumental rain event in Southport NC. The raincoat was beyond helpful to Molly in the driving rain.
Dog Coat FAQs
What are the benefits of putting a coat on a dog?
Dog coats aren’t just a fashion statement for Fido. They help keep your pet warm, cozy and safe during cold days in the fall and winter. The extra layer helps maintain their body temperature and can also provide protection from the wind, snow and rain.
Do dogs need to wear coats?
Not every dog needs to wear winter coats, especially if they already have a nice layer of fur to protect them. However, some small dog breeds, short-haired dogs, older dogs, and dogs with low body fat may benefit from an extra layer, notes Dr. Carol Osborne, DVM, a veterinarian at Chagrin Falls Veterinary Center & Pet Clinic in Ohio.
“I tell my patients, ‘If it’s too cold for you to go outside without a jacket, it’s probably too cold for your dog to go without a jacket, too,’” Dr. Osbourne says.
Dog coats can also protect from sleet, snow, and rain, as well as windy days. If your pup has sensitive skin or tends to get cold, a jacket or coat comes in very handy.
How do I pick the right coat for my dog?
The most important factors to keep in mind when shopping for dog coats is fit and comfort. You want to make sure to measure your pup and that the garment has a snug fit but isn’t too tight. Follow these instructions on how to properly measure your dog for clothing. Then refer to the coat manufacturer’s sizing chart.
From there, you can consider other details, such as reflective piping (great for nighttime walking), water-resistant materials for wet weather, or leash holes and/or d-rings for easy leash attachment. Also consider your particular climate since you don’t want a coat that’ll make your dog too warm or not warm enough.
