Spring weather is known for being cold, wet and rainy and your dog is sure to be bored if stuck indoors.Every dog needs to spend a little time outside each dog (especially for a potty break). Sometimes a fun jog or walk around the yard is necessary to break up the day, even when the weather turns wetter and colder. Despite the boredom of staying indoors, some dogs don’t enjoy being in the rain and would rather avoid it all costs. To make your dog more comfortable outside in wet weather, it’s great to have a dog raincoat handy. No matter what the occasion, a potty break or a quick walk around the block, it’s much more fun to be warm and dry doing it. A raincoat keeps your dog from feeling the cold, wet rain and their fur looking good. A lightweight raincoat is ideal throughout the year because it offers your pet freedom to move around and be comfortable in a variety of temperatures, yet gives them protection from the elements. Kyjen makes a fun, colorful designer raincoat for dogs. This practical raincoat is available in a variety of sizes and may be adjusted for the perfect fit to keep your dog warmer and dryer. Perfect for any cold, rainy day! Velcro tabs make this coat easy to put on and take off. The fashionable design is sure to look great on any dog, too. You can find this great item and more rain gear at GregRobert Pet Supplies.

Most people feel that a pet sweater or coat is a silly fashion statement. What people do not realize is that many dogs need to wear a sweater or coat in cold weather for protection, the same way you wear a coat for protection. Shorthaired breeds, small breeds, older dogs, puppies and ill dogs should wear a sweater or coat for protection in cold weather. The Sueded Patch Dog Sweater to the right, with its faux suede trim on the collar, shoulder patches and a pocket on the back is a good example of a good looking and warm sweater. This sweater is manufactured by Ethical Fashion Pet, a division of Ethical Products, Inc. They manufacture stylish and functional pet clothes, including sweaters, coats, pajamas and dresses. Ok...the dresses are purely a fashion accessory, but I bet your pet could use pajamas on a cold winter's night. It is important to purchase a sweater that covers your dog's stomach and lets its legs move freely. The next step is getting your pet accustomed to wearing a sweater. Any pet can get used to a sweater. You should let your pet sniff the sweater before you put it on him. Put the sweater on for only a few minutes the first time, gradually increasing the time. Play with him while he wears the sweater to prevent him from being distracted by the sweater. Your extra attention and praise will let your pooch know how good YOU think he looks. The next time you take your pet for a winter walk or let him out at night to do his business, remember if your are cold, he is too! Stay Warm! Think Spring!
