Review on ๐Ÿถ Ultimate Protection and Visibility: DOGHELIOS 'Thunder-Crackle' Reflective Pet Dog Jacket with Blackshark Technology by Manju Lett

Revainrating 4 out of 5

small sizes; but the jacket keeps the dog perfectly warm

I have two border collies. My short wife has a 22" bust and the large coat (which says up to a 26" bust) is tight. My husband has a 25" bust and the long coat is an inch too short to tie around him, but the length was just right for him. I just ordered it in XL. The hole for the leash between the shoulder blades is too small. I can't even get my pinky in, let alone the D-ring on the harness or the leash itself. Cords on each leg can be pulled over the ankles to keep the jacket "up" when put on a standing dog and a tight bond between the needle and the box so that it stays in place as you begin to zip up. The jacket is shaped like a water bowl, it eventually leaks. I bet it will spill water within minutes. Snow shouldn't be a problem at all. I will update the review as soon as I take it out in the rain or wet weather. The elastic band around the belly is a nice touch to keep dogs warm. Open areas for dogs to relieve themselves are very functional. All stitching all around looked good, no threads sticking out to be a concern. Overall, apart from being smaller than advertised and having a tiny hole for a mounting point, it looks pretty good.

Pros
  • Trial for one year
Cons
  • Only available in white
