# Protective Pooch Pants Muddy Mutts Dog Pants Keep the Lower Portion of Pooches Pristinely Clean By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2016-02-01 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dog-pants References: [odditymall](http://odditymall.com/bottom-half-dog-pants) & [muddymutts](http://muddymutts.ca/pages/sizing) Offering a way for dogs of all kinds to stay clean and dry when out for a walk, Muddy Mutts Dog Pants are innovatively designed to be worn in a distinctive manner. While other [dog clothing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-dog-face) varieties will only protect the upper and middle section of dogs, the pants from Muddy Mutts will offer comprehensive protection on the [lower half](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nonslip-dog-socks) instead. Available in a variety of different sizes and colors, the pants stay fastened to a dog via a series of straps that attach over the back. While Muddy Mutts Dog Pants might seem like a strange product, the company has experienced immense popularity since releasing the pants. All the products are made in Ottawa, Canada to ensure the perfect fit and unmatched quality. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.3/10 - Popularity: 64% | Activity: 56% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Pets](https://www.trendhunter.com/pets) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Comprehensive Dog Protection:** Opportunity for innovative products that provide full-body protection for dogs during outdoor activities. - **Functional Dog Clothing:** Opportunity for creative designs of dog clothing that serve a specific purpose, such as keeping dogs clean and dry. - **Local Manufacturing:** Opportunity for local manufacturers to meet the demand for high-quality pet products and offer customization options. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Pet Products:** Disruptive innovation opportunity in the pet products industry by introducing functional and protective clothing for dogs. - **Outdoor Recreation:** Opportunity for the outdoor recreation industry to collaborate with pet product companies in developing gear for outdoor activities involving dogs. - **Fashion and Apparel:** Potential disruptive innovation by incorporating functional and stylish designs for pet clothing within the fashion and apparel industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sustainable Dog Clothes Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pet-passion.md) - [Protective Workwear Dog Jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dog-chore-coat.md) - [Leak-Proof Pet Pads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/earth-rated-pee-pads.md) - [Dog Skincare Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dog-skincare.md) - [Premium Canine Clothing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-dog-face.md) - [Washable Pet Carpets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dayspring-mat.md) - [Adventurous Cyclist Pant Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/686-platform-bike-pants.md) - [Practical Children's Outerwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miles-the-label.md) - [Stylish Sherpa Dog Jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sherpa-dog-jacket.md)
