Thickened Cotton Padded Coat for Dogs

There's a particular kind of dog who plants their feet at the front door the moment a southerly rolls in — and who can blame them? An Auckland winter morning can be brisk, drizzly and downright unwelcoming for a short-coated pup. Our Thickened Cotton Padded Coat is built for exactly those days, wrapping your dog in cosy, windproof warmth so the daily walk stays a joy rather than a negotiation.

Warmth where it counts

The secret is in the layering. A wind-resistant outer shell keeps the chill and light rain-spray at bay, while a generous inner layer of soft cotton padding traps body heat close to your dog. The result is a coat that feels substantial and snug without being stiff, letting your dog trot, sniff and explore in comfort even when the temperature drops.

Made to be lived in

• Outer layer: windproof, weather-resistant fabric
• Insulation: thick, soft cotton padding for real warmth
• Sizes: S, M, L, XL and 2XL
• Colours: blue and pink

Finding the right fit

For the best fit, measure your dog's back length from the base of the neck to the base of the tail, and check the girth around the widest part of the chest. If your dog sits between two sizes, we'd generally suggest sizing up so there's room for a comfy stride and a bit of fluff underneath. The coat should sit snugly without pinching at the neck or legs.

Keeping it fresh

Muddy adventures happen. Spot-clean small marks with a damp cloth, and when a proper wash is due, use a gentle cold cycle and let it air-dry flat to protect the padding and shape. Avoid tumble-drying on high heat, which can flatten the insulation over time.

Questions we hear a lot

Is it good for rain? It's wind-resistant and handles light drizzle well, but it isn't a fully waterproof raincoat, so we'd keep it for cold, dry-to-damp days rather than a proper downpour.

Can my dog wear a harness underneath? Yes — with a size up, a flat harness fits nicely beneath the coat.

Will my energetic dog find it restrictive? Not at all; the cut is designed for easy movement so zoomies stay firmly on the menu.

Every coat is covered by our 30-day happy-pet guarantee, and spend over $75 and we'll pop your order in the post free anywhere in New Zealand. Warm dog, happy walk, sorted.
