Your dog needs a warm dog coat for the cold weather but also needs to wear a comfortable harness to keep him safe. As most owners will tell you, putting both on when your dog is anxious to get outside can be time consuming and sometimes even frustrating. So, what are your options?

• 1.A dog coat for a harness is simply a coat with an opening in the back so that when the harness is worn underneath, the D ring from the harness will be exposed and easy to attach to the leash. This is recommended for most large dogs or dogs that are strong pullers. The NYD Everything Coat - The New York Dog Shop is our most popular and warmest coat for a harness, plus it has an adjustable opening. Or, if you want a simpler style, the new NYD Blanket Coat - The New York Dog Shop is about as easy as it gets when it comes to putting a coat on your dog.
• 2.The Dogo Runner Coat with Built In Harness (thenewyorkdogshop.com)is an all-time favorite dog coat and is basically a harness but looks like a coat. It has a D ring on the back of the dog coat that just clips onto your leash. No harness required. The only down fall is that it must fit your dog perfectly and this dog coat isn’t adjustable. This is an ideal coat for small dogs.
• 3.Our most popular coat is the NYD Harness Coat (thenewyorkdogshop.com). The harness is attached to the coat, so that it is adjustable for a perfect fit. This is also one of our warmest dog coats.
• 4.If you love the Puppia brand as most of our customers do, we carry every style made by Puppia. Some of the most popular dog coats by Puppia with built in harnesses are Puppia Mountaineer II Coat and Harness (thenewyorkdogshop.com), Puppia donovan (thenewyorkdogshop.com), and the Puppia Wilkes Coat - The New York Dog Shop. Any of these styles would be appropriate coats with harnesses for small dogs.
• 5.If you are looking for something a little lighter, at a lower price, the NYD Step In Jacket Harness - The New York Dog Shop sells out every year! This style is also the largest coat available for bigger dogs with a built-in harness.
