DOG DRYING COAT (TRIPAW) - Tay / Length of Back between 25cm and 39cm Please allow up to 3 weeks for your order to be made and posted out to you

These Tripaw Dog Drying Coats have been specially designed for front leg amputees to cover the chest area and amputation site and to fit your dog snuggly so it will not twist or move from side to side.

 



Your dog may only have three legs but they can still enjoy life and Freckles Dog Drying Coats are an essential piece of kit for active dogs.

  • Use to warm and dry your dog after exercise or dog sports
  • Great for putting on your dog after a walk in the rain, a swim in the sea or after a bath.
  • The drying coat fits snug on your dog for maximum contact with the fur ensuring that moisture is absorbed quickly.
  • Microfibre towelling inner and a polar fleece outer layer.
  • Machine washable.

(Please note: the microfibre towelling that I currently have available for the lining is a marine blue)


All Tripaw drying coats are made to measure and are available in Tay or Ness styles.

  • The Tay Dog Drying Coat dries the chest and front of the belly area, as well as your dog's back. It slips over your dog's head, and has a strap that fastens around the dog's waist to ensure that the coat stays nicely in position.

  • The Ness drying coat has the addition of a polo neck and has extra length and shaping at the back which allows the rear of the dog to be covered and dried too. The back shaping fastens together with a small plastic buckle which can be undone if required.

Please note that the rear leg amputees should be absolutely fine in the standard drying coats.


Which Leg ??


Now comes the really important bit .... letting me know which leg has been amputated !! Please answer this from the dog's perspective - NOT as you are looking at them. Here's a few examples ....


 


Please also email a photo of your dog to hello@freckles-designs.co.uk or contact me on Facebook Messenger, quoting your order number, so that I may see the breed and shape of your dog as all amputees will have a different body shape.

Please note that if your dog has part of their limb remaining that these tripaw coats may not be suitable. Please feel free to email me a photo, or contact me on Facebook Messenger, and I can take a look and advise accordingly.

 

Measuring your Dog

All Tripaw coats are made to order. Please click here for guidance on measuring your dog.

The price of the Tripaw coat is based on the length of the coat.

  • First please enter the measurements in centimetres for length, chest , and neck size (measure the chest at the widest point behind the front leg).
  • Then please choose the size range that the length of your coat falls into so that the correct price for your coat is selected.

Materials and Care

Microfibre towel inner

Polyester polar fleece outer

To preserve the fibres in the microfibre and to ensure that they continue to work effectively to absorb moisture please observe the following:

- Your drying coat can be washed in a washing machine at temperatures up to 40 degrees celcius.
- Only use non-biological powders/liquids. Do not use fabric conditioners or softeners, or dual action tablets.

Air drying is preferable for microfibre, and you will find that your drying coat will dry relatively quickly if hung up.

Tumble drying is not recommended.
