Size Guide

Please note that the breed guide is a suggestion only and I would always recommend measuring your dog to ensure that the coat you purchase is a good fit. 

 

* Please note that the length of the coat will be slightly longer than the length in the chart below as the coat is sloped at the back to provide cover for the rear of your dog. For example, the Intermediate coat is made to suit a dog with a back length of approx 54cm, but the length of the coat is 57cm.

If your dog has an upright tail please leave a note in the comments box at checkout and the coat will be made without the extra sloping, and will match the length in the chart below.

Custom Sizes

I also make custom size coats and the price of the coats are based on the length of the coat. There are separate product pages for custom sizes for each of the coat styles.

Materials and Care

- Polyester Microfibre outer with waterproof, windproof and breathable coating. The 2 layer fabric has a soft peached face making it quiet to wear.

- Polyester inner

As it is a lightweight fabric it is advisable that the coat is not worn in areas where it can catch or snag on branches or undergrowth as it may rip the lightweight technical fabric.

To prolong the life of your waterproof coat, wash it as little as possible as each time the coat is washed it shortens the life of the waterproof coating and seam tape.

It is preferable to lightly wipe off the dirt with a damp cloth, or fill a bucket with cold water and slosh the coat around to remove the dirt and then allow to air dry. Do not wring or squeeze your coat.

It is not recommended that waterproof clothing is washed with detergent, fabric conditioners or softeners as the chemicals can breakdown the composition of the fibres with each wash and strip the coat of its waterproofing coating. Instead a tech wash solution can be used (such as Nikwax Tech Wash), pure soap flakes, or wash on a water cycle only, ensuring that the machine is clean of all detergents first by running a rinse cycle first.

If you notice that the fabric of your coat is absorbing rather than repelling water, you may wish to reproof your coat.

As I am moving from an Order basis for my products, to a Stock basis and you will no longer be able to purchase a 'made to order' coat. Instead I will be adding stock that is made and ready to post to the website. This allows me to work more effectively and for customers to receive items more quickly.

I will be adding stock to the website as I make them for purchase - and will update this page when there are Brora coats available for purchase.

 

The Brora Waterproof dog coat has been designed to provide warmth and coverage to your dog's muscle areas, keeping your dog warm and dry in a stylish raincoat when out and about in wet or cold weather.

  • Breathable waterproof fabric which is quiet to wear
  • Front splashguard
  • Shaped lower at the legs to provide greater coverage for the leg muscles
  • Shaped at rear to follow contours of your dog
  • Zipped harness hole and zipped hole in the collar for lead attachment *
  • Reflective stripes
  • Covered elasticated leg straps
  • Hanging loop

* If you don't require either the zipped hole for the harness or lead please use the discount code NOHARNESS at checkout to receive a 5% discount and leave a note at checkout stating which one you don't require.

Fabric

These waterproof coats are made from peached coated microfibre (the material feels like the skin of a peach).  The coated microfibre is a lightweight technical sportswear fabric which is both waterproof and breathable and quiet to wear.  As it is a lightweight fabric it is advisable that the coat is not worn in areas where it can catch or snag on branches or undergrowth as it may rip the lightweight technical fabric.

The coats have three reflective strips to aid visibility in the dark.

Choose from a lightweight airtex lining, or a warmer fleece lining. This raincoat is ideal if you are looking for a waterproof coat without any added warmth as it is lightweight if you choose the airtex lining. Should you require a waterproof coat with extra warmth than choose a fleece lining instead.

 

Fit

The coats slip over your dog's head they have an underbelly strap to keep the chest nice and dry, and fasten with a buckle and adjustable strap around the dog's middle. 

All the raincoats now come with a zipped harness hole so that your dog can wear their harness under the jacket and a zipped opening in the collar for a lead attachment.

Should you intend on using a harness under the jacket, then please measure your dog when wearing it as this may affect the most suitable size of coat. Harnesses with handles on them are not suited to be work under the coat.

They have colour co-ordinated elastic leg straps which are sewn within the same peached fabric as the main body to ensure that the elastic doesn't catch on your dog's fur.

Brora waterproof coat

The coat was custom made for my dog as he is deep chested and I wanted a good coverage of his hind leg muscles.I emailed Angie with his sizes and my requirements and she could not have been more helpful. 10 days later the coat arrived and fitted beautifully and when he wore it it didn't move at all and he was happy and relaxed when wearing it. If you are looking for a top quality coat for your dog I can highly recommend Freckles Designs.

Perfect Fit for my odd shaped Staffie

Made to measure is the only way to go if you want that perfect fit. Always struggled getting a coat to fit my staffie who has an extra large chest and short back length. His coat from Freckles fits perfect and the quality is excellent. He wears his after hydrotherapy so I opted for the fleece lined. I love how it covers his neck and half way down his legs keeping them warm too. Also love the option to have the opening for the lead on collar or harness. Would highly recommend
