Measuring Your Dog:
1. Back length: Measure from the withers (not the collar) to the base of the tail when the dog stands normally.
2. Neckline: Measure at the base of the neck, the widest part. The parka's neckline can be adjusted to fit a smaller neck.
3. Chest: Measure at the widest part of the chest, behind the front legs. Make sure the parka's chest is wider for freedom of movement.
Using the Hurtta Buckthorn Cold - Weather Expedition Dog Parka is easy. First, measure your dog's back length, neckline, and chest following the provided guidelines to pick the right size. Then, put the parka on your dog starting from the head, adjust the neckline, back length, and collar circumference so it fits snugly but not too tight. Let your dog wear it during cold - weather walks, adventures, or after workouts.
When it comes to maintenance, clean the parka regularly according to the care instructions on the label. Usually, a gentle machine wash in cold water is fine. Avoid using harsh detergents that could damage the material.
Here are some things to keep in mind. Check the fit regularly as your dog may grow or gain/lose weight. Make sure the parka doesn't restrict your dog's movement. If your dog shows signs of discomfort, like trying to take it off or acting unusually, check the fit again. Also, don't leave your dog unattended for long periods while wearing the parka to prevent any potential hazards.
