Some hounds just don't like to have their legs put into leg holes - especially older dogs. The older they get though, the more tendency they have to feel the cold.
This housecoat is perfect for such hounds. It has a chest panel that passes between the front two legs, hugs around the chest and fastens at the top with velcro. This snug fit around the chest helps comfort dogs who get anxious during thunderstorms and when fireworks can be heard.
