Colour: lilac

Built for the long, lean shape of sighthounds, the DryDogs Fleece Base-Layer Coat is an ultra-thin fleece that keeps Italian Greyhounds, Whippets and Greyhounds warm without any bulk. A built-in underbelly panel and an integrated snood cover the areas these breeds feel the cold most — chest, tummy and neck.

It's ideal on its own for cold evenings around the house, and slim enough to wear as a warm base layer under a waterproof coat on freezing walks, instantly adding underbelly and neck warmth to your existing coat.

Available in three colours — Grey, Lilac and Green.

  • Sighthound-specific fit: Cut for narrow chests and deep tummies so it hugs the frame without slipping.
  • Ultra-thin fleece: Warm without bulk, so it layers easily under a raincoat with no bunching or rubbing.
  • Built-in underbelly panel: Extra coverage where sighthounds lose heat most.
  • Integrated snood: Keeps long necks cosy, with a lead-access hole so you can clip to the collar underneath.
  • Easy to put on: Slip it over the head and pop the front legs through.
  • Machine washable: A gentle wash inside out, then air dry.

Size guide

Back length is the most important measurement — measure from just behind the shoulder blades to the base of the tail. If your dog is between sizes, size up.

Size Back length Best suited to
L 19–21" Smaller Italian Greyhounds and petite Whippets
XL 21–23" Whippets and small Greyhounds
2XL 23–26" Larger Whippets and medium Greyhounds
4XL 28–30" Large Greyhounds

How to measure

Back: from just behind the shoulder blades to the base of the tail (the key measurement). Chest: around the deepest point of the chest. Neck: around the thickest part of the neck, for the snood. Tip: lay a piece of string along your dog, then measure the string against a tape.

Materials and care

Soft fleece. Machine wash on a gentle cycle, inside out. Do not tumble dry — air dry only.

DryDogs is a UK maker of sighthound-friendly dogwear. The range is stocked at Hairy Dogs.

Common questions

Which size should I choose?
Go by back length — measured from just behind the shoulder blades to the base of the tail — and match it to the size guide above. If your dog falls between two sizes, size up.
Can I wear it under a waterproof coat?
Yes — that's exactly what it's designed for. The fleece is thin enough to sit close to the body under a raincoat or winter jacket without bunching, adding underbelly and neck warmth your outer coat doesn't cover.
How does the snood work with a lead?
The snood has a lead-access hole, so you can clip your lead to the collar worn underneath. The snood can be pulled up over the neck for warmth or worn down around the shoulders.
Is it warm enough on its own?
For indoors, bedtime and lounging it's a cosy layer on its own. For cold or wet walks, layer it under a waterproof coat for full protection.
How do I wash it?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle, inside out, then air dry. Avoid the tumble dryer to keep the fleece soft and the fit true.
