Cold weather affects dogs differently depending on size, coat type, age, health and activity level. Some dogs tolerate winter conditions well, while others may benefit from an extra layer or paw protection during walks.
Dog coats and jackets
Look for a coat that covers the back and chest without restricting the shoulders. Adjustable closures can help achieve a secure fit, while water-resistant materials are useful in wet snow or rain.
Sweaters
Sweaters can add warmth during cool weather and are often useful for short-haired or smaller dogs. Make sure the garment is snug enough to stay in place without limiting movement.
Dog boots
Boots can protect paws from snow, ice, road salt and rough winter surfaces. Choose a secure closure and a sole with suitable traction. Introduce boots gradually so your dog has time to adjust.
Reflective details
Winter often means walking in lower light. Reflective accents on coats, harnesses and leashes can improve visibility.
