I have a confession: I own more dog coats than I have reasonable excuses for. And somehow, I STILL manage to grab the wrong one!
Nice thick warm coat? Perfect, then it starts to rain sideways.
Waterproof shell? Great! but it‘s -4°C and we’re standing around waiting for the train.
Fleece? Lovely. Until “somebody” sees a squirrel.
Now my pre-walk decision is basically: what‘s happening outside, what are we doing, and which dog am I taking?
Because sometimes all I want is a soft, warm layer for a dry chilly walk. Sometimes I need proper protection from the weather. And sometimes the dog is about to spend 45 minutes running like an absolute maniac and the coat can stay in the car.
