Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Prepare Your Dog: Ensure your dog is calm and relaxed.
- Unzip/Unfasten: Open any zippers or fasteners on the suit.
- Guide Legs: Gently guide each of your dog's legs through the appropriate leg openings, starting with the front legs.
- Pull Up: Carefully pull the suit up over your dog's body, ensuring it sits comfortably without twisting.
- Secure Fasteners: Fasten any zippers, buckles, or hook-and-loop closures along the back or belly, making sure they are snug but not too tight. You should be able to slide two fingers underneath the fastened suit.
Compatibility
This Regatta Dog Mud Suit is available in various sizes, including Small (S), Medium (M), Large (L), and Extra Large (XL), to accommodate a range of dog breeds and sizes. It is crucial to measure your dog accurately (chest girth, back length, and neck circumference) and compare these measurements to the Regatta size guide to ensure the best fit. A well-fitting suit allows for unrestricted movement and maximum comfort.
Care
To maintain the suit's protective qualities and longevity:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold water. Use a mild detergent.
- Drying: Air dry the suit flat or hang it to dry. If machine drying, use a very low heat setting or tumble dry on cool to prevent damage to the polyester and fleece. Avoid high heat.
- Bleach/Fabric Softeners: Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the material's integrity.
- Storage: Store in a clean, dry place when not in use.
