Coats for dogs – A sure bet in winter times
photo © 2009 Craig Howell | more info (via: Wylio)Every time I go to work in the morning at this time of the year I can see different types of coats for dogs.
It is kind of funny to notice how good or bad the owners tastes are, as well as the “I don’t care” look of the four legs wearing them.
What is for sure is in this cold winter time (that is somewhat too cold too early), I haven’t seen a dog without something warm on its back.
Small dogs are more in need of coats for dogs.
However, it seems that much more of small dogs owners are considering coats for dogs than those who have middle sized or big dogs.
There is sound reasoning behind that fact. Actually, dogs are no different than humans : the bigger the size, the more likely it is they have sufficient fat layer to help them maintain their body temperature.
You can have proof about this by thinking of the reverse condition : have you ever watched any bid dog behavior at the peak of summer ? See how it is suffering from the heat, and constantly looking for cool places ?
My personal big dog loved to come along jogging with me. The thing is when it was too hot outside, he was smart enough to spot some fresh mud place nearby a road turn, and went right into it. He knew I would come back in the opposite direction after about a quarter of an hour, so he was not worried of losing me.
A smart thinker, and in a way lazy dog. But the simple truth is since he had some husky genes, he was simply not able to cope with too much heat, despite all his loving for his running master (who was suffering from heat either).
Coats for dogs happiness.
So now what does this tell you about any small or slim dog in winter times ? Will it enjoy doubling its natural coat with an extra one ? You bet it will. I have personally noticed a friend of mine’s dog refusing to go out if it did not get its warm coat beforehand. Not able to talk, but capable of communication.
So if you haven’t thought of any Christmas gift for your four legs best friend yet, hit the internet again or head to downtown and get a bunch of coats for dogs !
