Slush Suits and Leggings to Protect Your Dog From Winter Weather

These coats can also help prevent snowballs from building up on your dog's leg fur. A dog sweater can keep your dog warm in cold weather, but it won't protect their full body. These full-body dog snow outfits can even help prevent your dog from needing as many baths in the winter as their bodies will stay cleaner while out on walks. For extra warmth for thin-coated dogs like greyhounds and chihuahuas, consider adding dog pajamas or a warm fleece under the snowsuit for an added layer of protection.

‌Sizing:‌ Always consult the sizing chart when purchasing any type of clothing for your dog. Sizes are not universal and will be different for each dog snowsuit. Some are designed only for small dogs, while others come in a range of sizes to fit big dogs as well. The goal of these slush suits is to keep your dog dry and comfortable. A suit or leggings should be well fitted, meaning not too tight so they restrict your dog's movement, but not so loose that your dog trips or gets stuck in their outfit. Also take into account if you'll be putting a warm fleece or sweater on your dog to wear under the outerwear and plan for that when you select the right size for your dog. Be sure to supervise your dog while they are wearing a slush suit, and remove it if they begin showing signs of distress.

‌Care Instructions:‌ When selecting a slush suit or leggings for your dog, take a look at the care instructions to find out whether it's machine-washable or hand-wash only. Since your dog will be wearing the outfit in inclement weather, something that you can easily clean in the washing machine and then hang up to dry is preferable.

‌Weather Conditions:‌ Consider the weather conditions that you regularly walk your dogs in. If you have a lot of snow and ice, you'll want to get your dog leggings that are designed to keep dogs warm as well as dry. If you live in a wet climate that isn't as cold, you may want a full-body raincoat that's lighter in weight but wind and waterproof.

‌Foot Protection:‌ Although these suits protect a dog's legs and body from slush, they don't include booties to protect a dog's feet. If you're walking your dog in cold, wet, and slushy conditions you'll want to also consider adding dog boots to protect your dog's paws from harsh deicing chemicals.
