If your dog refuses to even put their paw out the door when it’s raining, trust that you’re not alone, and honestly, I don’t blame ’em. I know all I want to do when it’s raining is curl up under a blanket… but as a human, I can also use the toilet when I need to go to the bathroom. Our little furry friends, though, not so much — which means finding the right dog raincoat that allows them to do their business while also keeping them from turning into a soaking wet mess is key.
With so many options out there, it can be hard to know what will make for a good dog raincoat for your pup. Do you need a lightweight option or something more hefty to also withstand snow? Would you like them to be covered from head to tail, or would you rather prioritize having it be easy to take off? Are you all about it being functional, or does having some style also hold equal importance? And then large dogs and small dogs each have their own special considerations, too. What would be perfect for your Frenchie, for instance, might not give your golden retriever or lab what they need. It’s A LOT to think about. That’s why I did all the work for you (you’re welcome), and have compiled the best of the best, whether you’re concerned about budget, coverage, or style. Now your walks can be less “ugh” and more paws-itively pleasant.
