Keeping Your Greyhound Warm: When to Consider a Coat


Greyhounds, known for their sleek build and short coat, are particularly sensitive to cold temperatures. As responsible pet owners, it's crucial to ensure their comfort and well-being, especially when the weather turns chilly.


We recommend considering a coat for your greyhound when temperatures drop below 10-15°C. At this point, their thin fur and lean physique provide minimal insulation against the cold, making them susceptible to discomfort and even health issues.


Investing in a well-fitted jumper/coat designed specifically for greyhounds can make a difference in their comfort level during outdoor activities like walks or playtime. Look for coats made from warm, flexible materials that cover the chest, belly, and back areas to provide maximum protection from the cold.


When selecting a coat, keep in mind the importance of proper fit and comfort for your greyhound. Ensure that the coat allows for freedom of movement and doesn't restrict their natural range of motion.


By paying attention to the temperature and providing appropriate attire when needed, you can help your greyhound stay warm and happy. So, the next time the mercury drops, don't forget to consider a coat for your beloved greyhound companion.
