KONG Red Rip-Stop Blanket Coat for Dogs Medium

Product Information

If you have wood floors, you may want a blanket with a little extra padding and warmth. If your dog has aches and pains, a heated blanket may help soothe their joints. And if you have a serial drooler? That’s totally okay—there are waterproof dog blankets out there for you too! I hit up my fabric stash to find the fabric for the coat, and then I headed to my local Meijer store to get all the notions. Did you know that Meijer has an amazing craft section including tons of sewing supplies?

Christmas Breakfast Ideas.Fuel up for a day with loved ones with these festive, filling breakfast ideas.Do you include your pets in your holiday celebrations? We do! We have ever since our only “kid” was a furry terrier mutt. Now us humans are outnumbered by animals by a six-to-one ratio (literally), and we still make sure all of our animal friends have gifts on Christmas morning! Place the first batch of hook-and-loop fastener on the chest strap by pinning the rough side of a 2” piece to the outside fabric in the middle of one of the sides of the chest strap. If you’re sewing this for a medium or large size dog—of if you just have a particularly rambunctious dog like I do—I recommend using two strips of hook-and-loop fastener on each strap.Pin the soft side of the fastener to the middle of the lining side of the other chest strap. Repeat with the belly band straps. This amount of fabric will work for most dogs. If you have a tiny dog, you’ll have quite a bit left over, and if you have a very large dog, you’ll need to get more. My philosophy is that it’s always better to err on the side of having too much fabric than not enough. Next, using the measurements you just took, recreate the shape at the bottom of the printable to scale on a large sheet of pattern paper, wrapping paper, newsprint, or any other large sheet of paper. This shape will look very boxy.

The perfect branded gift for any dog lover Cinnamon Dough Ornaments.Your tree will smell wonderful with these homemade ornaments. They also make fun gift tags!In very cold conditions, a fleece-lined dog coat will add warmth and comfort. Or look for a coat with extra padding for added insulation. At the milder end of the weather spectrum, an unlined shell can offer some protection against the elements, including wind and light rain. In part, what makes our dog coats so popular is that they really fit dogs well. As small, specialist manufacturers we appreciate that generic styles of dog coats will fit some dogs fine. However, we prefer to fit specific breeds with specifically cut coats. Hence, our whippet coats are cut to fit whippets, our greyhound coats to fit greyhounds and, at the other end of the scale, our dachshund coats are cut specifically to fit dachshunds. Some breeds of sporting dogs have a similar body shape, hence our Pointer coat is also a great fit on Vizslas, Weimaraners and other slim, athletic working dogs. Ivy is our first ever short-haired dog, and she does not tolerate the cold Midwestern winters well. The first time I saw her shivering by our patio door, I knew it was time to make her a coat.

For instance, some pet parents want a heavier dog blanket that provides warmth on chilly days, while others are looking for something to cover their favorite couch, protect their vehicle seats, or help make a crate cozier. This heated blanket also has a temperature sensor to help keep your dog safe. Just remember to always monitor your dogs while they use an eletrically heated blanket as an added safety precaution. First, you need some measurements. Get out your measuring tape, and measure the spots on your dog to fill in the printable. I recommend being generous with your measuring—don’t make the measuring tape too tight. I sewed with a 3/8″ seam allowance here and didn’t add it to my pattern because I knew I measured loosely. Dogs fluctuate in weight just like humans do, so it’s nice to have a little bit of space to be able to adjust. Write all those measurements down in the spaces provided.Dogs are all shapes and sizes, so we’re going to custom-make a pattern—it sounds complicated, but I promise it’s a breeze! It’s the best way to make sure the coat fits your dog beautifully. And I made a printable for you to make the process even simpler. There’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing’ goes the saying, and it’s certainly true that as a dog owner, you get used to going out, come rain or shine! But while it’s easy enough for us humans to make sure we’ve got the right kit for all conditions, it’s not always so simple when it comes to your dog. There’s a huge range of dog coats on the market – so should your dog be wearing one, and if so, how do you choose the right coat for your dog? Does my dog need a coat? Pattern paper (you can buy specific paper, but any large, blank paper will do—old wrapping paper, newsprint, kraft paper, etc.)

It’s going to be a happy Christmas for this puppy. Happy holidays! Want more DIY gifts like this one?Are they wet for hours after the walk if it is raining? When you come in and hang up your soggy wet coat, unfortunately your best friend doesn’t have the same luxury.
