01. Long-haired dogs don't need to wear clothes
Dogs are not a very cold-fearing animal. Most dogs' surface defense is enough to withstand the cold in winter. Some dogs have very long and thick hair, like many sheepdogs, long-haired dogs or sled dogs, not only have thick hair, but also grow thick fluff in the bottom layer in winter. It is completely unnecessary to dress such dogs.
02. Short-haired dogs who are strong or prone to gain weight do not need to wear clothes
Wear dogs in winter, but are more aimed at short-haired dogs. But even if your dog is short-haired, it is not 100% necessary to dress it. Dogs that are easy to get fat like starlings, bullfighting, short-haired daffodils, etc. do not necessarily have to wear clothes for them in winter. Their body fat is enough. Clothes such dogs can sometimes affect their exercise. For dogs with very strong bodies such as Spots, Labrador, Great Dan, and Rovena, there is no need to wear clothes to resist the cold in winter, because they are very strong and excessive protection will reduce their resistance.
03. Short-haired and thin dogs should wear clothes in winter
Although most dogs are not afraid of the cold, some breeds born as pet dogs are still very weak in physique. The most obvious example is Chihuahua. This small puppy is very thin and has no thick fur protection. It is born to be a child who grew up in a greenhouse. When the cool breeze blows in autumn, they will tremble when they go out. Moreover, because this dog is thin, it is easy to get worse if it is sick. It is very beneficial for it to wear clothes on this dog when it is cold. If your dog is not a Chihuahua, it also has this characteristic: it is thin, short hair, and poor physical condition. It is best to consider putting a few small clothes on them to resist the cold when winter comes.
Generally speaking, most dogs do not need to wear clothes in winter. Of course, if your dog is very cute in clothes and you really want it to show off outside in small clothes, you might as well let it go out for a walk in clothes occasionally, but it is good to go out for a while. Don’t be like this every day, so as to save the little guy from getting used to wearing clothes. On a cold day, he didn’t wear clothes and went out for a walk, and he caught a cold when he came back.
Warm reminder: If you have to wear clothes, you should also pay attention to the temperature difference not being too large, especially the heating. The air conditioner will turn on and off at a time. Go out and come in later. In addition, long-haired dogs should also pay attention to combing their hair every one to two days. Otherwise, if you always wear clothes, it is easy to tie knots, be breathable, and even cause skin diseases. Try to use cotton and fabric as much as possible, while clothes from chemical fiber products are likely to cause allergies and itching.
