Will a dog drying coat Irritate my dogs skin?

If your dog is very sensitive to certain fabrics then it is better to avoid these fabrics when choosing a drying coat for your dog.

Many drying coats will contain cotton and/or a mix of other synthetic fabrics and materials, so if they have caused irritation on your dog's skin before, they are best avoided.

However, most drying coats will contain fabrics that have hypoallergenic properties and these can include cotton, wool and bamboo. Most naturally occurring fabrics will have hypoallergenic properties and synthetic materials can in rare cases cause irritation because of the chemicals and processes involved in making the fabric.

If your dog is sensitive and you are in any doubt it is probably best to buy a drying coat that contains natural fabrics on the layer closest to the skin. This will ensure that as this mix of fabrics works to dry your dog, there is very little danger in it resulting in a rash or any other form of allergic skin reaction.
