7 Snow Day Essentials Every Dog Needs to Stay Cozy This Winter

Now that it’s almost winter, my dog and I are spending most of our days curled up on the couch with approximately five blankets. We both have a very low tolerance for cold weather. Unfortunately, we do have to leave the house on occasion and deal with the sleet and snow. Thankfully, we have found a few products that have made snow days a bit more bearable. 

Two Layers Fleece Lined Dog Jacket 

Price: $20.99

As the temperatures drop, your canine companion needs to be bundled up. This fleece-lined jacket will ensure your pup stays nice and toasty while they are out in the elements. 

Wave Fur & Velvet Orthopedic Snuggery Dog 

Price: $64.99

My dog and I believe the best way to spend a snow day is in bed, like the grandparents in Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. Be warned, your canine companion may not want to get up after snuggling up in this luxurious burrow-style bed. 

K&H Lectro-Soft Outdoor Heated Dog & Cat Bed Gray

Price: $45.99

My dog gets extremely jealous when I pull out my heating pad. For this reason, I think she would be a big fan of this low-wattage heated outdoor bed.

PupProtector™ Waterproof Throw Blanket

Price: $99.00

As previously mentioned, my dog and I are big fans of blankets. This waterproof one will stay cozy even if your furry friend comes back inside a muddy mess. It also comes in a variety of colors and patterns, ensuring that it will match the interior of your house. 

Musher’s Secret Dog Paw Wax (16oz)

Price: $39.99

Walking on snow and ice can be damaging to your dog’s adorable paws. To protect your furry friend’s feet from cracks, consider purchasing paw wax. 

Dog Shoes

Price: $21.99

Speaking of protecting your dog’s paws, I can only imagine how unpleasant it is walking barefoot on the snow-covered sidewalk. While some dogs are not fans of booties, they must have a barrier between their feet and the sleet. 

Safe Paw PetSafe Ice Melt 

Price: $74.95

To make walking your pup easier during the winter season, use dog-friendly ice melters. As the name implies, this pet-safe product will remove ice and sleet from sidewalks and pathways. 

DoggieLawn

Price: $34.95

Sometimes when it gets too cold, I don’t have the heart to make my canine companion go outside to do her business. Instead, I will allow her to use a grass tray inside the home.
