{"product_id":"leopard-fleece-dog-winter-jacket-with-built-in-leash-ring","title":"Leopard Fleece Dog Winter Jacket with Built-in Leash Ring","description":"\u003cp\u003eMost winter dog jackets force you into a two-step routine: pull the jacket on, then layer a harness over the top so the D-ring sits where the leash can reach it — and the harness presses the fleece flat into the dog's coat. This vest has the D-ring sewn directly into the back panel, so the leash clips to the jacket itself. One layer, no harness, no flattened fleece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUsed most often as a daily winter walking layer for small and small-medium dogs (Yorkies, Pomeranians, Mini Dachshunds, Toy Poodles, Cavaliers) up to 10 kg \/ 22 lb who don't need a separate harness. The faux-fur collar adds neck warmth without the bulk of a full hood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOne fleece vest with built-in stainless-steel D-ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFaux-fur collar (sewn-in, not removable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFaux-leather cross patch on the back panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAvailable in Classic Tan or Cool Grey leopard print, sizes XXS–XXL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow the built-in leash ring works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe D-ring is a stainless-steel ring sewn through reinforced webbing into the back panel — not glued, not riveted to the fleece. Pulling weight transfers to the chest band of the jacket (which is wider than a typical harness strap), so a moderate leash tug spreads load across a 4-cm band rather than a single point. This is fine for casual walks and dogs who don't pull hard. For dogs that lunge, a real harness with chest support is still the better choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterials and build\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter:\u003c\/strong\u003e printed plush fleece, mid-pile\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCollar:\u003c\/strong\u003e faux-fur trim, sewn-in\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eD-ring:\u003c\/strong\u003e stainless steel, anchored through reinforced webbing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDetail:\u003c\/strong\u003e PU faux-leather cross patch on the back\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e velcro chest band, adjustable\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWash:\u003c\/strong\u003e machine cold on gentle, lay flat to dry — heat shrinks the fleece and stiffens the faux-fur\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSizing — XXS to XXL, fits up to 10 kg \/ 22 lb\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeven sizes from XXS (teacup, ~1–2 kg \/ 2–4 lb) through XXL (small-medium, ~9–10 kg \/ 20–22 lb). The size chart image lists chest, neck, and back-length measurements per size — measure the dog's chest at the widest point and the back from collar base to tail base, then size up if the dog is between sizes (the velcro chest band closes a 2–3 cm gap, but doesn't open one). For dogs over 10 kg or barrel-chested breeds (French Bulldog, Pug), this jacket runs short.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhen this isn't the right jacket\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSkip this if your dog is a hard puller — the back-panel D-ring isn't a substitute for a chest-distributing harness, and consistent pulling will eventually loosen the webbing. For pullers, use a proper no-pull harness and skip the leash ring entirely. Skip this if you live somewhere genuinely cold (–10 °C \/ 14 °F or below) — the fleece is mid-pile, warm enough for autumn through mild winter but not insulated for sub-zero conditions; pair it with a base layer or look for a quilted parka. Skip this if your dog has a thick double coat already (Husky, Samoyed, Akita) — they overheat under fleece.

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, lay flat to dry. Avoid the dryer entirely; heat melts the fleece pile flat and stiffens the faux-fur trim. Spot-clean the faux-leather patch with a damp cloth — soaking weakens the adhesive backing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBrowse the rest of our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/dog-clothes\"\u003edog clothing collection\u003c\/a\u003e for matching layers and walking gear.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PawsMore","offers":[{"title":"Classic Tan \/ XXS","offer_id":48386150629626,"sku":"PC0001-TAN-XXS","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Tan \/ XS","offer_id":48386150662394,"sku":"PC0001-TAN-XS","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Tan \/ S","offer_id":48386150695162,"sku":"PC0001-TAN-S","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Tan \/ M","offer_id":48386150727930,"sku":"PC0001-TAN-M","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Tan \/ L","offer_id":48386150760698,"sku":"PC0001-TAN-L","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Tan \/ XL","offer_id":48386150793466,"sku":"PC0001-TAN-XL","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Tan \/ XXL","offer_id":48386150826234,"sku":"PC0001-TAN-XXL","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cool Grey \/ XXS","offer_id":48386150859002,"sku":"PC0001-GRY-XXS","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cool Grey \/ XS","offer_id":48386150891770,"sku":"PC0001-GRY-XS","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cool Grey \/ S","offer_id":48386150924538,"sku":"PC0001-GRY-S","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cool Grey \/ M","offer_id":48386150957306,"sku":"PC0001-GRY-M","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cool Grey \/ L","offer_id":48386150990074,"sku":"PC0001-GRY-L","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cool Grey \/ XL","offer_id":48386151022842,"sku":"PC0001-GRY-XL","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cool Grey \/ XXL","offer_id":48386151055610,"sku":"PC0001-GRY-XXL","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0818\/0039\/7050\/files\/LeopardFleeceDogWinterJacketwithBuilt-inLeashRing_1.jpg?v=1772163246","url":"https:\/\/pawsmore.com\/products\/leopard-fleece-dog-winter-jacket-with-built-in-leash-ring","provider":"PawsMore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
