THE MOUNTAINMUTT RAIN COAT - NEW THIS SPRING - PERFECT FOR IN BETWEEN WEATHER!
MountainMuttDogCoats™
We Sell Seriously Warm Winter Coats for Dogs
The mission of MountainMuttDogCoats is to provide warm, weather resistant coats for dogs needing protection from the harsh Colorado winter. MountainMutt's coats are made by hand from high-quality technical fabrics including soft-shells, Polartec fleeces, as well as leather and recycled materials. MountainMutt's breathable fabrics are engineered to manage heat exchange, block wind and resist water. Our most sophisticated fabric has a CLO of 1.4 and regulates body temperature very efficiently. MMDC's dog coats are made from the same fabrics you would wear for outdoor activities!
MountainMuttDogCoats was inspired by Mac who needed a really warm coat after being diagnosed with osteosarcoma in October, 2009.
Colorado had a bitter cold winter that year. None of the coats I bought for Mac fit properly. They were made more for show than function. As a result I had several leather/fleece-lined and fleece coats made for Mac that fit him properly. These helped him stay warm and protected during the storms and cold.
That winter we met other canine patients during our visits to CSU. We noticed that many dogs had thin, short-hair or had been shaved before surgery leaving them exposed to winter weather.
We learned that healthy short-haired dogs with no natural undercoat are among the most vulnerable to colder weather. Older dogs, dogs recovering from an illness, or even long-haired dogs may need extra layers to protect them in winter, especially in our Colorado mountains.
Mac and I decided to make really warm winter coats for our community of friends, both healthy and ill. Mac loved wearing his custom made winter coats (especially the black leather one with the Fonzi collar) and was very thankful for the warmth they provided.
Sadly, osteosarcoma is a common cancer in dogs. It bears a close resemblance to OSA in children. This explains the research and many clinical trials involving canines.
To honor Mac a portion of the profits earned by MountainMuttDogCoats will be donated to the Flint Animal Cancer Center at Colorado State University where he was cared for so well.
