Product Information
Full details
The Jack Pyke Sherpa Fleece Dog Coat is ideal for dog owners seeking extra warmth for their pets during chilly autumn and winter outings. Its primary benefit is the high-quality deep pile fleece construction which provides excellent thermal insulation, though owners should note that the fleece material is not waterproof and may become saturated in heavy rain.

FAQs
Is this coat waterproof?
No, the coat is made of deep pile fleece, which is designed for warmth rather than water resistance.
Can I put this in the washing machine?
It is recommended to hand wash the coat to protect the faux leather piping and the integrity of the fleece.
Will this fit a deep-chested breed?
The adjustable hook and loop closures provide significant flexibility to accommodate various chest sizes and shapes.
Does it cover the underbelly?
The coat is designed to cover the upper torso and provides significant warmth across the back and sides, with straps extending under the belly.
How do I know which size to buy?
Measure your dog from the base of the neck to the base of the tail and consult the sizing guide to ensure the best fit.
Troubleshooting
The coat keeps sliding to one side.
Adjust the belly strap to be slightly tighter or ensure the coat is centered properly before fastening the neck strap.
Hook and loop fasteners are losing their grip.
Use a stiff brush or a comb to remove trapped fur, lint, or debris from the velcro surface to restore its sticking power.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To fit your dog, drape the coat over the back, secure the neck strap first, then fasten the belly strap for a snug fit. Ensure the coat is not too tight; you should be able to comfortably slide two fingers between the strap and your dog's body. To care for the coat, shake off loose dirt after use. If the fleece becomes matted or soiled, hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent and allow it to air dry completely away from direct heat sources to prevent shrinkage or damage to the faux leather piping.
