Jackets

A good dog jacket earns its keep on three fronts: fit that works under a harness without bunching, fabric that handles wind and light rain, and a leash attachment point that doesn't force you to take the jacket off every walk.

The leopard fleece dog jacket here has all three — built-in leash ring on the back, fleece-lined for sub-40°F weather, and a cut that clears the belly so it doesn't drag through snow or wet grass. Sized XS to XL by chest girth (not weight, since too many short, broad dogs get failed by weight-based sizing).

Care: machine-wash cold, air-dry to keep the fleece nap from flattening. More jacket styles are dropping through the season — quilted shells, padded vests, reflective night jackets. Sign up for restock alerts on any size that's currently out.

At what temperature does a dog need a jacket?

Small and short-coated dogs start needing one below 45°F; medium dogs around 32°F; most large breeds below 20°F. Add 10-15°F warmer if it's wet or windy. Senior dogs and puppies need a jacket sooner than healthy adults. If your dog won't keep all four paws on the ground, it's already too cold.

Measure chest girth at the widest point right behind the front legs, then back length from base of neck to base of tail. Compare to the size chart on each product page. If your dog is between sizes, go up — fleece doesn't stretch, and a tight jacket restricts shoulder movement.

The leopard fleece jacket is water-resistant — it handles light rain and snow, but isn't a full waterproof shell. For pouring rain or muddy walks, see the raincoats collection (full-body, with attached boots). New quilted-shell jackets coming this season will be fully waterproof.

Yes — the leopard fleece jacket has a reinforced D-ring sewn into the back panel for direct leash attachment. For dogs that pull hard, we still recommend a separate no-pull harness over the jacket. The jacket ring is for casual walks, not high-tension control.

Machine-wash cold on gentle cycle, with the leash ring zipped or tucked. Air-dry only — high heat permanently flattens the fleece pile and the jacket loses 30-40% of its insulation value after one tumble dry.
