Q: 2. Why does a dog need a Harness Coat? A: There are many reasons dogs should have a Harness Coat:
- A dog harness has many features; it not only holds the dog safe and secure, unlike a simple collar, it also prevents undue pressure on the pet's throat, which may cause problems as the dog ages.
- Dogs need coats because they are typically kept indoors. When they go outside they face the same elements humans do and they need protection to stay warm and dry. Your pet will be less likely to catch a cold, which could be transferred to family members.
