My dogs generally wear a size Medium, but as most dog owner knows, a Medium can range from Shih Tzu size (my dogs) to a Springer Spaniel. Anyway, the raincoat would probably work just fine if it were the right size. I'd say a medium for this coat would probably fit a large Cocker Spaniel.

I bought this for my puppy who hates the rain on her head and that she gets wet. Not only does the coat look cute on her bet it keeps her from getting soaked from the rain. The coats due seem to run a little large so keep in mind how big your dog really is when buying. I would recommend this to anyone.

I purchased two of these doggy rain coats for each of my pet kids in a size small. I bought one in pink and the other in true blue.

Darby and Hampshire typically wear a medium (16") in most dog attire, but these coats run large so I purchased a size small and they fit nicely.

Pros--

The coats have a medium gray band around the waist and two black plastic tipped hood adjustment strings around the neck.

The coats have an authentic pocket in the middle of the back with a Velcro closure. The coats also have a leash opening on the back just above the medium gray waist band.

The coats have a draped front panel like a cape, a hood that has adjustable strings, a medium gray adjustable waist band with a plastic belt loop, and Velcro closures.

The coats are 100% polyester, machine washable, and made in China. The picture does not do these coats justice. They look much more classier than pictured.

They remind me of the Sherlock Holmes cape/coat because of the front draping.

The coat is lined with a soft white polyester material, and there are two (2) very loosely fitting hip/leg elastic bands for the two rear legs.

Cons:

I am not sure if it is just my coats, but the medium gray adjustable Velcro waist band on both coats does not have enough male Velcro.

It over extends the female by 4-5" so the garment does not adjust well to fit the waist. I added additional Velcro in order to get the garment to fit properly.

I purchased the self adhesive Velcro at a local office store that rhymes with maples. The waist band is rather tricky to operate.

The hood also does not extend beyond the ears so it will not fit well enough to cover the head properly even when tied.

In order to get it to stay in place you practically have to choke your pet, and that's simply not acceptable.

I give these wonderful doggy rain coats 5/5 for fashion chic, weatherizing, contour, durability, and cuteness; and I give them a 2/5 for fit and function--70%.

You will have to do some problem solving like I did in order to get them to fit properly.

You will have to sew on the Velcro with a few stitches to get it to stay in place because the glue does not hold, and it might fall off when laundering.

Warning--If your dog has short legs like some breeds: Shihtzu, Pekingnese, dotsons, or terriers, they may step on the long front bib when they walk with their heads in the downward position--sniffing the ground. They may trip so no steep walkways, stairs, or steps.

Honest reviews on Guardian Gear Pet Rain Pet Jacket - Pink

Before ordering a size I contacted the company to see what they recommended for my dog's measurements. See my email and response below.

Yes you are right. The best would be the large but it will be huge on the neck and chest or you can take a smaller one and it won't cover completely .

I want to order a raincoat for my dog, her measurements are: neck 13.5 inches, nape of neck to tail 18.5 inches, belly 24 inches. Which size would fit her Best in the dog guardian brand? I was leaning toward lrg, however, her measurements don't fit any size exactly.

I ordered the large and found that the length is much much longer than size chart depicts. Medium would have been perfect for my dog. The box and everything got thrown so I can't try to return it, but I am going to trim it up and add some Velcro to make it more snug to her measurements. It finally rained in Texas (we've had a long drought recently) and I made her try it out, it definitely kept her dry.

P.s. My dog weights 30 pounds for reference.

This raincoat is really cute and seems well made!

HOWEVER, I ordered an X-Small coat for my petite yorkie, and the coat is HUGE on her! It seems more like a SMALL instead of an XSmall... So I think it would fit Malteses/Bichons/Poms/other small dogs better than it fits tinier dogs like yorkies and chihuahuas.

Due to this size discrepancy, the coat is now useless to us.
