Dog Rain Poncho with Roll Collar and Belly Strap

This rain poncho for dogs is made in a bright main color with dark gray side panels, a roll collar that stands up around the neck and a strap that closes under the belly. It is described as waterproof, and the inside has a soft dark lining. Colors are yellow, navy blue, black, green, rose red and orange.

Seven sizes, XS to 3XL, are covered by the size chart below, which gives neck, chest and length for each. Measure your dog's neck, the widest part of the chest and the back from the base of the neck to the base of the tail, and compare. If your dog falls between two sizes, order the larger one, and allow about 1 inch (2-3 cm) of variation because each piece is measured by hand.

The poncho is light, from 2.3 oz (66 g) in XS to 10.5 oz (298 g) in 3XL. Fasten the belly strap so it is snug but leaves room to breathe, and check that the collar does not press on the neck and that the hem does not rub the legs.

After a wet walk, hang it up to air dry, wipe off mud with a damp cloth and keep it out of direct heat. A bright color such as yellow or orange is easy to spot at dusk.
