How To Buy A Dog Coat
Last updated: 17th January 2010You can see our range of coats available for sale here. If you can’t find anything you like, then we’d be delighted to knit a coat to order. All we need from you are your dog’s measurements, and whether you have any colour preferences for your coat.
How to measure your dog:
Measure from his collar to where you want the base of the coat to come to. Then measure all the way round the widest point of his chest – which is usually just behind the front legs. If he/she has a particularly wide or thin neck, that measurement is useful too.
Colour preferences:
All our wool is donated, so we can’t always guarantee we’ll have the colour you want in stock - but if you would like a particular colour scheme, i.e. girly coat, or boy coat, we will do our utmost to provide you with your preference.
Ordering your coat:
Please email us using the form below with the name of the coat from the web site you’d like to order. If you would like a coat made to order then use the form below to send us details of your dog’s measurements, what breed of dog it is (this helps when choosing a design to use), and the colour(s) you would prefer. Then leave the rest to us!
Paying for your coat:
The price of each coat is detailed on its web page, but generally they cost £7.50 for small coats; £10 for medium sized coats, £12 for large coats, and £17.50 for extra large coats. Please make your cheque out to either The Little Dog Rescue, Tailends or Dogs Trust – you choose where your donation goes! – and send to Ash at the address below. Please also include 4 x 1st class stamps per coat to cover postage and packing costs.

For Overseas Customers. We can ship our coats overseas, and ask our non-UK customers to send their donations by paypal rather than by cheque. Postage and packing is charged at cost, and will vary depending on which coat you are ordering. We also ask people paying by paypal to add a little bit extra onto their donation, so that the charity gets the full amount. Please contact us for more information.
**Increase your donation by 28%! If you are a UK tax payer, and choosing Dogs Trust to receive your donation, you can donate using Gift Aid. The Charity can then claim your tax back - thus increasing your donation. You need to register on the Dogs Trust Website (see here) and tick the gift aid box. Then note on the back of your cheque that you want your donation to given under Gift Aid. ***
