Zack & Zoey Polyester Thermal B002QS1I46

Zack & Zoey Polyester Thermal Lined Dog Jacket, XX-Small, Red - 3.8 out of 5 stars from 15 customer reviews


Sizing is WAY off, putting it on may be difficult
The sizing was WAY off. I measured my dog as suggested and requested the proper size even though I though it would be too big. Turns out it was too small, WAY too small. My dog is 20" from shoulder to base of tail and is very lean. The jacket we received, a large, is at least 4" too short and doesn't even come close to fitting around his chest (we cannot get his legs in at all). It's a shame to be inconvenienced like this. I hate having to go to the post office to ship something off because of a seller/manufacturer error.

This jacket is not at all stretchy but it has front facing sleeves and a front closure. Be careful putting this on your dog as you never want to pull a dog's front legs out to the side. Also there is a very stiff velcro closure that runs the length of the front. This may be uncomfortable for dogs and may prevent them from curling into a ball to rest. It would be much better if the closure was on the back as this would eliminate both problems. Also if the...


Great Coat
I have a blue Doberman with alopecia that has very thin hair. In the winter I needed something nice and warm for her to wear so the poor thing didn't have to go out and freeze being somewhat bald. This coat is great. The lining is nice and cozy and she has no problems running or carrying on as she likes to. Just make sure you actually measure your dog to order the correct size. I had to order larger than what was suggested for the breed because my dog is broad chested.


Read the other reivews
The measuring guide and this coat weren't made for a boxer/pitbull. The coat was clearly too long, but I knew I could fix that. However the shoulders are so narrow that it makes it almost impossible to get on. After much fussing and swearing, my dog tolerated me putting this on him. It was too long and interfered with his elimination process clearly ruining any chance of a return. I still have hopes that I will be able to alter it so it will work. However, I have only gotten it on him the one time.

I gave it two stars because the construction and materials appear to be something worthy of a typical Minnesota winter. I am thankful that this isn't a typical winter and I have some time to find something that will work for my dog.
