Wetsuits for Dogs

k9_lopcoat_lycra.jpgMy 6 month old puppy Oliver hates the wind and rain.  It was pouring so hard today and I felt bad he couldn’t get any time outside.  If only I had one of those K9 Dog Coats to keep him warm and dry with this crazy weather.  K9 Top Coat is the company that has been creating these unique dog-friendly coats since 1999.   According to K9, the coats are comfortable and non-restricting so dogs can run freely while being protected from the elements, burrs, ticks, mud, snow and caked on ice.

In addition to helping with the elements, the lycra suits can also be great for pets who suffer from severe allergies.  When you want to stop your pooch from the constant itching, licking and biting the coats significantly help alleviate the irritation.  There is no proven theory, but somehow the feel of the suit helps trigger the animal’s brain to stop feeling the itch.  Prices start at approximately $60. 

I do have to laugh thinking about how funny it would be trying to get Oliver to actually let me put the suit on him and then seeing his furry pals check him out as he goes barking in the rain.
