Product Information

Each of the animals gets one big, special present each year, too. This year, our special present to our dog Ivy is a homemade custom dog coat! If you don’t need to add a hole for a harness loop, you’re all done! Put it on your puppy and go for a walk. If you do need a harness hole, move onto step five. Optional Step 5: Make Hole for Harness Loop Ivy is our first ever short-haired dog, and she does not tolerate the cold Midwestern winters well. The first time I saw her shivering by our patio door, I knew it was time to make her a coat. Next, using the measurements you just took, recreate the shape at the bottom of the printable to scale on a large sheet of pattern paper, wrapping paper, newsprint, or any other large sheet of paper. This shape will look very boxy. Pattern paper (you can buy specific paper, but any large, blank paper will do—old wrapping paper, newsprint, kraft paper, etc.)

It’s perfect for cold climates, older dogs or anxious dogs that like to be wrapped up like a cosy burrito.Treat your pup to a taste of luxury with this super soft and cosy fleece jumper. Featuring a playful design crafted from cosy teddy bear-style fabric, this dog fleece is the perfect option for pampered pooches of all shapes and sizes.

While a chihuahua may start to shiver at temperatures of 40 degrees, an American Staffie won’t start feeling the chill until it dips to 30 degrees," Simon says. According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, short-haired and short-legged breeds are more likely to have a lower tolerance for cold, while young dogs, senior dogs, and pets with health conditions may need more help regulating their body temperature.

This amount of fabric will work for most dogs. If you have a tiny dog, you’ll have quite a bit left over, and if you have a very large dog, you’ll need to get more. My philosophy is that it’s always better to err on the side of having too much fabric than not enough.But other breeds aren't as prepared for cold weather, with some smaller dogs even at risk in relatively mild cold. How to Make Ginger Tea.It is rare for a fall or winter day to go by without my drinking a giant pot of ginger tea. It is so spicy and soothing. In general, dog coats don’t need to be washed that often. “Dogs don’t sweat, and their coats tend to stay clean on the inside,” says Simon. “However, they should be washed a few times each season, especially if your dog is keen on rolling in grass or lying on mud.” Do you include your pets in your holiday celebrations? We do! We have ever since our only “kid” was a furry terrier mutt. Now us humans are outnumbered by animals by a six-to-one ratio (literally), and we still make sure all of our animal friends have gifts on Christmas morning!
