Other Coat Comparison

Overexposure

The underbelly of a dog is usually a sensitive spot that is least covered with hair or fur. What is the purpose of a warm and/or weatherproof coat that only offers a thin strap to cover the belly?

Unweildy

We've seen many coats where the makers use hook and loop closure at the neck.

The problem with this type of closure is that it adds substantial bulk to the neck area. This bulk can cause rubbing and matting if not fitted properly.

"Adjustable," usually means you'll be left with unwanted extra material that hangs over on the neck. Any hanging material can get caught on brambles while exploring, and can "pop" open with vigorous activity.

Bulk in the wrong places

Even coats that do recognize the importance of belly cover still are left with unwanted material and bulk on the back of your dog. Many times, a wrong fit in the chest area can be restricting, or cause chafing - a great discomfort for your bud.

She's not a "brickhouse"

Lastly, most coat manufacturers believe our dogs are shaped like bricks. The back of the coat is straight as a rod! BUB coats are shaped like our dogs, with a back that swoops and rises - that is form fitting.
