The Cascade is a waterproof, windproof stretchable, breathable fabric that will truly revolutionize the dog apparel industry. The fabric is soft, flexible and comfortable. It is thick enough for winter use, but breathable enough to use in temperate weather during rain showers.
The Cascade is an alternative to the heavier Waterproof K9 Top Coat.
1. Top Line - Measure from the middle of the shoulder blades along the back bone to the dock of the tail.
2. Girth -- Measure the distance around the girth from just behind the front legs.
Compare your dog's measurements with those recommended by the sizing chart to determine the most appropriate size for your dog. If your dog's measurements fit into more than one category, use the Top Line measurement alone to select the best size.

Note: They currently do not make K9 TOP COATs specifically for short legged breeds such as Basset Hounds and Dachshunds. However, we have had numerous customers purchase and modify the garments to fit their dogs.
Adjustable Top Strap:
Use the exclusive top line strap to shorten the length of your garment to perfectly fit your dog. The Top Strap Adjustment is a standard feature of all bodysuits; Lycra, Arctic Fleece, Waterproof & Cascade.
Adjustable Neck Strap
Use our Velcro strap to adjust the neck of your garment to be comfortable - yet firm for best fit. As long as you can get 2 fingers inside the neck, your dog will have freedom to breathe and move without limitation. The adjust able neck strap is a feature of all our quality garments.
"Need to Modify your K9 TOP COAT?"
Modifications of the K9 TOP COAT are easy. Our special design and superior materials and construction allow a wide variation of modification options. You simply need a pair of very sharp scissors, and your specific tailoring needs.
First, you can cut the garment without causing the material to roll or run. If you desire to finish the cut ends, you can-or you can leave them as is. The choice is yours.
You can make a short sleeve version easily by just trimming the sleeves to the desired length. We intentionally did not make a "short sleeve" version because there is such a wide definition of what 'short sleeve' is on a dog. So, make the sleeves any length you need.
The short sleeved version is great for older dogs that do not have as much flexibility, or for Veterinarians with dogs that have had only abdominal surgery and do not need full coverage. Also, the short sleeve version is perfect for show dogs that need to keep their coat flat and clean.
You can also modify the K9 TOP COAT for a "Front version" only. This is ideal for dogs with shoulder or thoracic surgery, or for dogs with wounds/hot spots on the front of the body or legs.
