Perfect sweaters

By: Anonymous - Tennessee Feb 12, 2013

These sweaters fit my dog perfectly. Perfectly made to go potty without making a mess back onto the sweater. Our first sweater was purchased 3 years ago and it is still in great condition!

perfect sweater until they changed sizing

By: Brigitte - LA Feb 02, 2013

we used to order 6 Sweaters every year for our Amstaff, last order in December, what a disappointment, far to small and far to tight.

ordered 3 sweaters, spent over 100 Dollars and had to donate them.

Answer from WestPaw... thats how it is... feel extremely disappointed...

Sweater is awesome for my pup! Your measuring chart was perfect and she loves the sweater- it's warm, not itchy, and so stinkin' cute!

Cuddly and cozy

By: Anonymous - Chicago Dec 07, 2011

Just moved back from Puerto Rico where we adopted an adorable "sato", ie mutt (beagle/spaniel type mix). She was used to hot days and warm nights so imagine her surprise to find herself in Chicago heading into winter without the necessary fur. This sweater gives her great coverage; she is disproportionally long and it just about hits her hips (small size). This isn't great for windy conditions but lets her snuggle into a nap and takes the edge off while she's romping around the back yard or dog park. Recommend for dogs that like the total wrap around the body.

Sweater Awesome!

By: Susan - Spruce Grove, AB Oct 15, 2011

Just purchased size 12 sweater for my daughter's Italian Greyhound, Nelly, fits perfectly. Love the turtle neck as she is so long and slender this is the best fitting sweater ever.

Wanted to love it, but....

By: Alison - Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Oct 15, 2011

I was so excited to find that west paw made dog sweaters, however when I received the product I found they left a lot to be desired. I love that the sweater is made of recycled materials and that they are manufactured in the U.S.A. but within a half an hour of wearing the sweater around the house (not playing or running, in fact a good portion was spent snoozing on an eco drop bed!) the sweaters fibers were falling apart and unraveling. I love the look and idea of the sweater, but it is almost as though the knit fibers are disintegrating. I have purchased loads of west paw products ( salsa's, boogey, zisc's, hurleys, hucks, bumis, beds, blankets, and a cloudburst jacket) and have been impressed with them all because of their durability, design, and manufacturing, but unfortunately the reknitz sweater did not reflect the companies usual high standards. :(

Chilly Corgi Loves His Sweater!

By: - Golden, CO Nov 19, 2010

I've never had a dog who needed to wear a sweater, so I had never consider getting one until this year. Over the summer, my Pembroke Welsh Corgi, Daxter, had such awful allergies, he had to be shaved in order to apply topical medication to his skin. Several months later, his skin has cleared up, but his hair remains fairly short, with little, to no, undercoat. For the first time ever, my boy couldn't handle the cold and would shiver even just laying on a cool concrete floor. So I decided to give the ReKnitz a try....what a worthwhile purchase!!! My boy LOVES his sweater! He struts around thinking he's the coolest guy around. Thanks for making a great product that can withstand the cold Colorado climate, and make a cool Corgi even cooler (so to speak).

Need tiny dog size

By: - Canada Sep 30, 2010

We have been wanting to get one of these since they came out. But the smallest size is for a 13-14 inch back.
My two Chihuahuas have a 10 inch length back.
I've seen them in the stores - they look really nice.
Would you please consider making them for tiny dogs? They actually 'need' to wear sweaters to stay warm.
Thank you

Not the warmest out there...

By: Anonymous - Minnneapolis, MN Dec 06, 2009

PROS:
well-made
adorable (gets lots of compliments when my greyhound-pit is strutting down the street in it!)
seems comfy for the pooch
earth-friendly
good color options
big dog sizes!

CONS:
less substantial than I expected - won't stand up to deep winter here in MN
It'd be nice if the sizing was updated to include neck/girth measurements to help with ordering the best fit - I wish we'd sized down a notch or two for a snugger fit as ordering by length got me a sweater that isn't snug at the neck and is baggy around the girth for my guy.

overall, a little pricey, but a good product.

Love these sweaters!

By: Terika - Shih Tzu Heaven, Kansas Nov 10, 2009

I couldn't be happier with this sweater. The fit is fantastic and the fabric is so soft. Our Shih Tzus are now snug as a bug during winter outings. I'm thrilled that these are made in the USA. The only thing I could ask for would be more color options, such as black, cream, or even plum. Thank you West Paw!

Mrs.

By: Jen K. - Wappingers Falls Oct 02, 2008

I just bought these this past weekend for my two Wire Fox Terriers. I admit the price was a bit high but the fact that they are made in the USA and it's reclaimed cotton was a huge draw for me. But once I saw that design I was SOLD! The fact that the underbelly is cut short so that the dogs don't get it wet when doing their business was such a huge sell for me. Plus I love the fact that on top it's long enough to go to the tail. Perfect combination. Hopefully you'll start making them for big dogs. I can bet they'll want some soon. Thanks for such an awesome product!




Reknitz Size Guide - find the right sweater size for your dog

 

To Determine which size Reknitz sweater will best fit your dog, simply measure your dog from the collar on thier neck to the base of their tail.  Then use the size guide to the left to determine which size is right for your dog.  You'll find that the guide is for "most dogs".

If your dog has a very thin frame, you may choose to order a size smaller.  The sweater may not cover the entire back of your dog, but the sweater may fit your dog's chest better.

If your dog has a larger than average build, you may choose to order a size larger than suggested in the chart to the left.

When you receive your sweater, if it is obviously too big or to small for your four legged friend, please contact us to exchange the sweater for another size before putting it on your dog.  

Stay warm and looking good!
