Slip-On Dog Parkas

These Parkas Were Designed for Pets with High Energy or Mobility Issues

— December 29, 2016 — Lifestyle
This coat is described as a "5-second dog parka' due to its simple application process that does not require effort on the part of the owner or the dog.

The dog parkas were designed and made in Canada -- a country with residents that understand the need to keep their pets warm in the winter months. The coat is designed in a way that does not require pets to lift their legs and be zipped up into it, a feat that can be made quite difficult for older pets with mobility issues or ones that have a lot of energy and do not tend to sit still. The parka is simply slipped on over the pet's head and then clipped over their belly for simple use.

These functional dog parkas work to ease the life of pet owners who live in cold climates.
