Buying Guide
Fabric and Construction
When shopping for a French Bulldog jacket harness, it’s important to look at the fabric and construction to ensure enough comfort, durability and breathability for your pup. Look for natural, lightweight fabrics such as cotton or wool with lots of air pockets in the fabric’s weave. If the dog jacket is lined, make sure it has a breathable layer underneath. Also, pay attention to the way the jacket is put together. Check that the seams are reinforced and the construction of the jacket is durable enough to last the test of time.
Size and Fit
Getting the right size jacket is key. The jacket should be fitted close to the body of your pup without pressing or restricting movement. Take measurements for the most accurate fit, or a breed-specific jacket harness if available. Look for adjustable features such as drawstrings and buckles which allow for a snug fit. If buying in-store, try the jacket on your pup to get a sense of sizing and fit.
Color and Styling
There are many different colors, prints and styles available to choose from. Think about the occasion to decide which colors and print you would like your pup to wear. Look for bright colors and bold prints for more formal occasions and simpler colors for everyday wear.
