Toby is 13.2kg at nearly 1 year and from breast bone to tail top he measures 25" so have ordered a 24" one and see what he looks like in it.

The best thing about them is putting them on them when they come home filthy and sticking them in the cage to dry. Mine goes on the furniture so you can imagine how much mess a wet, muddy spaniel would make doing the I'm wet zoomies round the living room and sofa! And somehow he can come home filthy and the collies just need a paw wipe and they're done.  :huh:

My two don't wear their equafleece sweaters outdoors - I put them on when we come home from wet walks (and believe me, that's most of them....can't keep them away from the sea or any water for that matter). I only bought them a couple of months ago and honestly can't believe I didn't think of it sooner. Jake loves to roll around on my cream rug and sofa throw when he's wet....but there's none of that now - pop the sweaters on when they get home and they both settle straightaway. Take them off a few hours later, they're warm & toasty and dry. I know they're not cheap, but personally I think they're worth the money - a lot of cheaper versions aren't polartec fleece, don't wick the moisture away from the dogs, and will likely fall apart with repeated use.

Well worth the money.  I also dont take Robbie out in his - i save it for when he gets home all wet. Pop it on and saves the mud and wet being splattered up the wall every time he shakes. Also keeps him really toasty too.

On the brink of ordering an equafleece too, to use for drying after Cupar has a bath following a `muddy` walk/run Undecided whether to get four leg one or jumper. Which is best ?  :-\

Just wondering the same myself. The jumper looks  a little easier to put on but obviously won't cover the dog fully  :D

We have the four legged one and it's great.  We use it mostly for drying off at home after walks but sometimes on walks if it is particularly cold and wet.  I got 4 legs because it drys more/keeps more dry.  I haven't tried a jumper so am not sure if it has any advantage in a different respect.

I'm thinking of getting Bella an equafleece too but not sure whether waste of money as she is only 19 weeks and worried she will grow out of it quickly. I have tried to measure her, as much as you can with a wriggly pup, and make her 18'. Does that sound about right ?

Do you reckon it is worth waiting until full grown and just buy a cheap alternative now ??

Thanks

Decided to order 4 leg equafleece suit for Cupar as its mainly for drying him after bath or if hes really wet, so opted to get 4 legged one for this purpose. From all the reviews I'm sure I wont be disappointed.
 Cupar is 1year old and I don't think I would have bought one before he was fully grown. They are quite expensive to have to replace in a few months when the puppy growns.

I went for the 4 leg one and its easy to get on. I am only plannning to have 1 for a while as abit dear so waited till Toby pretty much full grown.
