What temp should you put a coat on your dog?

At what temperature does a dog need a coat? Small or thin-furred breeds, puppies, and senior dogs will need a coat when the temperature outside feels at or below 32°F. Once the temperature drops below 20°F, keep a close eye on your dog, regardless of breed, for signs that she is uncomfortably cold.

How do you know if your dog needs a jacket?

When temperatures fall below 7 degrees, some cold-averse breeds will probably need protection and get uncomfortable. For owners of puppies, seniors, thin-haired breeds, or very small breeds, anytime the temperature outside feels at or below 0 degrees Celsius, you should probably put a coat on your dog.

How cold is too cold for a dog?

Use caution when the temperature drops below 45 degrees Fahrenheit (around 7 degrees Celsius). It's potentially unsafe for little-or-medium-sized dogs with thin coats to be outside, but big dogs with heavier coats are probably OK.
