Pro Tip

Leave the collar or harness on — the 3-way zipper and leash opening let you clip a leash on without ever taking the coat off. Every zipper uses an upgraded waterproof design with a tighter seal.

Same easy on/off as the Raincoat — leave the collar or harness on and clip a leash on through the leash opening without removing the jacket.

Double coat? Choose one size up for the best comfort — coat thickness affects fit more than weight alone.

Quick Questions

What size should I order?

Fastest way: use the Size Assistant on the product page — enter your dog's weight, back length, and coat type for an instant recommendation. As a rough guide by weight: smaller breeds (~9–14kg, e.g. Corgi) usually fit S, medium dogs (~14–19kg, e.g. Shiba Inu) fit M, and larger dogs (~20kg+, e.g. Weimaraner) fit L. Double-coated or long-haired dogs should size up one level for extra room.

Can I wash my PETT2GO gear?

Yes — close all zippers, then machine wash cold on a gentle cycle inside a laundry bag. Tumble dry low (or iron on low if needed). Avoid bleach, dry cleaning, and fabric softener, and wash with similar colors. Heavy outdoor use: wash every 10–12 wears; light daily use: every 20–30 wears. For a small mess, just rinse and wipe the spot instead of a full wash.
