SIZING INFO HERE
So, I was going to buy one of these for my dog. But I read so many reviews that said the sizes were too small. So I worried. It seemed there had to be a sizing chart somewhere. And there is! Here:
You have to measure your dog's chest and neck, and that tells you the size. According to this chart, my miniature poodle, who weighs 14 pounds, is a medium!
Size Length...Fits Necks...Fits Chests
XS.......8".......8-10"......12-16"
S.......12"......10-12"......16-20"
M.......16"......12-14"......18-22"
L.......20"......14-18"......22-28"
XL.....24"......16-20"......26-34"
XXL...30"......20-26"......34-40"
Who knows why the sizing chart isn't available on Amazon.com. But I found it where other dog clothes by this manufacturer are for sale (but Amazon is cheaper). Silly me, took ten minutes to make this chart show up right on the review. I do hope this is helpful!
A tip when purchasing the Red Fleece Reflective Safety Jacket for Dogs
I got it for my sister's mixed breed as a gift. She loves it and so does her dog but my mom had to extend the neck and belly velco straps with her sewing skills. I bought the size that should fit for one of the breeds that she is mixed with but should've gotten a size larger because she is a mix and has a deep chest. Buy a size bigger if your dog is on the border of a size, that's my advice. Aside from this it is a wonderful jacket. Both owner and dog really enjoy it. Her dog gets really happy when she sees the jacket:)
Velvet dog coat
I got this for a doberman pincher pup. At first she tried to take it off, by reaching around and biting the rear end of the coat to get it off. So I decided to 'train' her to wear it. I kept her REALLY occupied, chasing a frisbee NON-STOP for 15 min or so for the first few times I put it on her. I then took her right into the house, and ended the play session, removing the coat in the house. If she realizes she must wear it when playing in the cold, she does with no complaint. She got used to it very quickly, and now leaves it alone. I notice it keeps her from shivering so soon after we go out. It fits her body perfectly, and with that tall collar standing up, she looks like 'Elvis' pup. Great Value. It is very well made, and great looking.
UPDATE 11/7/12 I got another pup in 2009 and she also wears this coat, but will tug at the backend of it sometimes, even at 3 yrs old now.But she leaves it on.. . I still LOVE these coats for cold non-snow weather.. I get coats...
