Mission Possible: Find Winter Dog Coats to Protect your Pooch
Your Mission:
Dog owners; your mission if you choose to accept it, is to outfit your pooch in
the best winter dog coats. Because this task is no simple assignment, we have
provided a situation analysis and list of challenges you’ll face as you strive
to choose the finest winter dog coat on the market. But before you initiate your
mission, beware of other dog winter coats boasting they are the best. Do not be
fooled by these imposters. May the knowledge you gain from your resources guide
your path to victory.
Situation Analysis:
Not all dog breeds are created similarly and differ in thousands of ways. Only a
select few are created to pull sleds in Alaska and live amid snow and ice. Less
hairy pooches like Chihuahuas, Weirmeraners, Boxers,
Whippets and
Greyhounds
cannot brave the bone-chilling temperatures of the wild winter landscape without
extra protection.
The Challenge:
Your challenge is to protect the young, old, lean, little and less hairy dogs
from sub-zero temperatures –temperatures that can harm their vital organs, lower
their energy levels and make their extremities stiff. Therefore, you must find a
winter dog jacket with the following points of difference:
• Full torso coverage –from neck to tail
• Fleece-lined interior for ventilation and comfort
• Insulated underbelly to cover vital organs
• Snug fit with adjustable straps
• Water-resistant to minimize wetness
• Option of neck covering or hood option
The Victory:
Your victory will come when you find dog winter coats and booties exhibiting the
above-mentioned attributes. Once you've reached your goal, you will be proud to have learned what to look for
in a dog winter coat and you pup will be grateful for being warm and toasty
on their next winter outing.
