Clothes and accessories for dogs

Do you need coats for dogs? It depends on the dog's breed, age, health condition, coat structure, lifestyle and weather conditions.

Dogs who live in outdoor aviaries and have a swimming pool do not need coats, as they perfectly adapt to even the harshest weather conditions. raincoats against the rain are not necessary for them either, because dogs' fur has a protective layer that prevents it from getting wet .

However, more and more dogs are becoming an integral part of our family, so they live in apartments and houses together with their owners. They get used to mild living conditions and find it difficult to adapt to sudden changes. When the air temperature changes from +20 C (inside) to -10-15 C (outside), the dog's body cannot react properly to such a large temperature difference and the dog can catch a cold and get sick. And what about dogs with short fur and no undercoat. In these cases, a coat is necessary.

Coats are also necessary for exercising dogs to protect them from catching a cold after intense physical exertion. We recommend only coats made by reliable manufacturers, which are perfect for our weather conditions, their construction is comfortable for the dog, does not restrict its movements, protects the main joints of the legs, is waterproof and pleasantly warm.

Although the dog's fur is able to repel moisture, it does not protect against heavy and intense rain. Buy a raincoat and always enjoy walking with your dog in any weather, whether it's just a light rain or heavy rain. The dog's fur will remain dry and you won't have to spend time drying it.

For a dog that likes mud baths, to stay clean and not leave traces of dirt in the car, coats that absorb dirt and moisture will help.
During the winter, it is useful for dogs with long fur to have overalls that protect the fur from snow and stuck pieces of ice, which can damage the dog's skin in more sensitive parts of the body (armpits, abdomen).

Shoes for dogs are not just a beautiful accessory. It is a great tool to protect the dog's paws from sharp, hot surfaces, cold, salt, broken glass, sharp stones, etc. The shoes must be sewn in such a way that they fully correspond to the structure of the dog's leg and must be made of strong, safe, comfortable materials for the dog's paw.

Beauty is important, but comfort comes first. The wrong shoes can distort the position of the dog's legs and have a negative impact on the health of the joints.

It is our responsibility to ensure the safety of our pets. The dog must always be visible, and this is very relevant in the dark, when you cannot control its direction of movement and activity. In the dark, excellent visibility of the dog is ensured by safety lights, thanks to which not only you will have a good view of your pet, but you will be able to control its behavior.
