It is the unlined member of Ancol's Stormguard family: a waterproof shell for warm rainy days, where the aim is a dry dog rather than a warm one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFit is what makes a coat this length work. A chest protector runs forward under the throat and brisket to catch the mud a cape would miss, elasticated leg straps stop the tail end lifting when the dog moves, and reflective edging tape follows the seams. A harness slot lets the lead reach a harness worn beneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003ePerformance \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWaterproof shell that sheds rain without adding warmth or weight.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChest protector guards the underside from mud and spray on wet ground.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElasticated neck and leg straps keep a 50cm coat in place over a working pace.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReflective edging tape for low light.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHarness slot for lead access to a harness worn under the coat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachine washable at 30°C.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u0026lt;\u0026gt;\u003ch5\u003eSuitable For\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDogs measuring 50cm from collar to base of tail.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMild, wet weather — showery spring and autumn walking rather than winter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDogs walked in a harness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeeping a long or feathered coat clean through mud.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf your dog measures nearer 40cm along the back, take the Medium; nearer 60cm, the XL.
