FAQs
Does my dog feel cold in the winter?
Yes, dogs can feel cold in winter, particularly those with thinner coats, shorter fur, or smaller body sizes. While some dogs naturally tolerate colder temperatures better than others, factors like age, health, and activity level also play a role in their ability to handle the cold. Breeds with short hair or smaller sizes tend to feel the cold more than those with thick, double-layered coats. To keep your dog comfortable in colder temperatures, consider using a dog jumper or coat, and ensure they have a warm, dry place to rest indoors. Signs your dog might be too cold include shivering, lethargy, or reluctance to go outside.
How do I choose the right dog bed for the cold weather?
When choosing a dog bed for camping, the Loft Wander Dog Bed and the Pup Sack offer great options depending on your needs. The Loft Wander Dog Bed is lightweight, durable, and water-resistant, featuring a nonslip bottom and compact design for easy transport, making it perfect for quick trips. In contrast, the Convertible Pup Sack, available in two sizes, is highly versatile. It can double as a sleeping bag for warmth or a dog pad with built-in loops to stake it down, offering extra insulation and flexibility.
How do I choose the right dog jumper for my dog?
The Core Sweater is an excellent option for cooler weather. Its athletic cut allows full movement, so your dog can stay active without restrictions. Made from 280g knit fleece, it provides great warmth, either on its own or layered for extra insulation. The 2-way zipper allows easy access to your dog's harness or collar, while the zippered neck opening ensures an adjustable fit. A soft hook and loop closure at the belly helps prevent fur build-up, and reflective accents improve visibility during low-light walks. With its combination of warmth, comfort, and functionality, the Core Sweater is ideal for keeping your dog cozy in various weather conditions.
How do I measure my dog for a dog jumper?
