After realizing how much Dash likes the outdoors, I set off to find him a warm dog jacket for the winter. If he was sometimes going to spend 3 or 4 hours just sitting in a chair on the porch, I at least wanted him to be warm.
Bassets don’t have a double coat like Collies or Australian Shepherds. This breed trait my lessen shedding (although, there’s still plenty), but bassets can also get cold if they’re going to be outside for too long, particularly if it’s wet out.
Finding a dog coat long enough for Dash was a problem as, if it was long enough, it was generally too big around the belly. I had to find dog jackets that were adjustable for his sleek figure – ha ha.
For those dogs who enjoy boating like ours do, here’s an article about Life Jackets For Dogs.
Note: all of the below dog jackets come in various sizes – Dash generally takes a large or extra large.
Warm Jackets For Basset Hounds
Make sure that, when buying a dog jacket, measure from the nape of the neck to all the way up to the tail – that’s the area you want to protect from weather and the elements.
Fleece is a nice material as it’s very soft and warm – well, it’s warm enough for days that don’t dip down too low in temperature.

Waterproof Dog Coats
For rainy or snowy days, I protect all of the dogs with waterproof coats. Sometimes, this means changing their dog jackets a few times a day but it’s a small price to pay for their comfort. God forbid they should get cold or wet – not OUR dogs….

The Warmest Dog Jackets Around
Our little pup Goldie has hair that will mat on her legs. One of her dog jackets has coverings for her legs – this type of coat for dogs is best for those dogs in very cold climates or where there is a lot of inclement weather. These are full body coverings.
