 When the clocks go back many dogs will have to get used to being walked in the dark. The Department for Transport* figures show that there was over 2,000 pedestrians killed or seriously injured in road accidents in Great Britain last winter – an increase of 18% on the year before. Plus road accidents involving dogs doubles in winter months.

 It’s a no-brainer to ensure that you and your dog are seen to avoid unnecessary incidents and heart break. The high viz range of Equafleece jumpers can help you and your dog stay safe and seen. Unlike flashing colours, these high viz Polatec fleeces offer 360 degree visibility. With high viz fleece jackets for owners too, be bright and visible with your dog.

In addition, Equafleece jumpers are 100 per cent rain-proof keeping your dog bone dry and adding a vital extra layer of warmth for single coated breeds as well as elderly or arthritic dogs whose conditions worsen in the cold or wet weather.

 

Equafleece’s unique fabric and design means that it really does magically transform a wet dog into a dry dog within minutes. Popping one on to a soggy doggy after a muddy walk traps any smells or debris inside leaving cars, homes and offices clean and dry as well as odour free.

With Christmas coming up this would make a great gift for a dog loving friend and dog! Available in high viz pink or yellow, and 10 glorious colours  to fit  the smallest puppy up to Great Dane, they retail from £20.
