Excellent Jacket With Wishlist
I love this jacket, warm, stylish and functional. A couple problems I encountered (less than 1 season) and would love to see in future models...
A left side inner breast pocket for right handed people (why not have both?) Also the velcro is too strong and unnecessary and will eventually pull apart from the fabric.
Armpit vent holes, zipped or velcro... this jacket is very warm but on active training days it gets hot very quickly with no way to really have body heat vent.
Heavy duty snaps on rear tunnel pocket with reinforcement on the seam edges, or use velcro instead. Both the snaps on my rear tunnel pocket have been torn out as it's an easy place for my 60lb Mal to get her paws caught up in (drive engagement, falcon carry on shoulders). It's frustrating as I love and constantly use this tunnel pocket. I could use an extra set of tunnel pocket snaps to repair this!
Hello there Waldy! Thank you for taking the time to leave the Ruffdog Winter Jacket a review. We're happy to hear that you love the Jacket overall and find it warm, stylish, and functional.
We appreciate your feedback and will definitely take your suggestions into consideration for future models. We understand the need for a left side inner breast pocket for right-handed people and will look into adding that in. We have a new design, simpler and lighter jacket in the works and have eliminated the velcro off the sleeve cuffs and pockets!
Regarding the armpit vent holes, we will definitely look into adding those in for better ventilation during active training days. We have focused on keeping the jacket overall price as low as possibile to provide affordability to all shoppers in the dog sport clothing market with less features including extra zippers. However we definitely see the importance of breathability when that jacket gets too warm! Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
We apologize for the inconvenience with the snaps on the rear tunnel pocket. We have reinforced all the jackets in stock in these areas to make them stronger and our new jackets (in late 2026) will boast a newly designed rear tunnel pocket to eliminate this problem that can happen when the dog jumps on the trainer. We wanted to make the pocket huge however when dogs jump their paws get caught in there and if they don't jump off gently this pocket can rip. We will likely eliminate the expander in future models to eliminate this problem. The pocket will be smaller but less chance of dogs paws and noses getting in there diggin for their toys!
In the meantime, our customer service team will be in touch! We would be happy to provide you with an extra set of snaps to repair the pocket and find the seamstress near you that can fix it quickly on our dime!
We do recommend closing the snaps when the rear tunnel pocket is not in use to avoid getting caught on objects in your daily life!
Thank you for choosing Ruffdog and for your valuable feedback. We hope you continue to enjoy wearing our jacket for a few more cold outdoor seasons to come!

Good Winter Training Jacket + A few suggestions
Warm. Roomy. (A little narrow around the shoulders. I suggest shoulder gussets to make movement easier for ppl w/big shoulders). Lotsa well place pockets. Caveat: Removeable, washable treat pockets is a great idea but found it hard to access the treat pockets. I suggest making it easy to SECURELY attach the treat pockets outside but attached to the main pocket. Bottom line: I'm pretty happy with this jacket. For me, it's a time saver because I no longer have to waist time layering up when it's cold.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for our NEW Dog Trainer Puffer Coat in OLIVE with shades of BLACK. We're glad to hear that the coat is keeping you warm during winter training and that you appreciate the roomy fit and well-placed pockets. We appreciate your suggestions for improvement, including adding shoulder gussets and making the treat pockets easier to access and secure. We will definitely take those into consideration for future designs. Thank you for choosing our product and happy training!

Warm, Dry and beautiful!
10/10 for this new version of the training jacket! I love the olive colour, it can be such a hard one to nail but the tone is perfect and the new material feels so high quality. It's super warm, the improved fit is excellent for me and makes the sizing range more inclusive. The taped seams make the water resistance so much stronger (2 hours in a torrential downpour with only a hint of dampness at the shoulders) and of course the many many pockets make this my fav for training or even just walking the dog. You definitely won't regret this one!
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review for our NEW Dog Trainer Puffer Coat in OLIVE with shades of BLACK. We are so happy to hear that you love the color and that the fit and material exceeded your expectations. Our team worked hard to make sure this new version is both stylish and functional. We're glad to hear it kept you warm and dry, even in a downpour! Thanks for choosing our product and for your support. Happy training!

Best Dog Training Jacket Ever
I love this jacket so much. Stylish, great fitting and warm. Has everything you could possibly need in a dog training jacket. Many pockets for toys and magnet pouches. This will be my go to jacket from now on!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review for our NEW Dog Trainer Puffer Coat. We are thrilled to hear that you are loving it and that it has everything you need for dog training. We designed it with functionality and style in mind, so we're happy to know it has met your expectations.

Christine is hands-down the best dog trainer I’ve worked with. She’s extremely knowledgeable and has a real talent for explaining things clearly- much better than any other trainer I’ve been to. She breaks everything down in a way that actually makes sense, and she keeps the sessions fun, so both you and your dog stay engaged. Highly recommend her if you want someone who’s both skilled and easy to work with.
Hi Zach, thank you so much for the wonderful recommendation! We’re thrilled to hear Christine’s clear, engaging approach made training fun and effective for you and your dog. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with her!
Kristine taught me how to be a proper alpha to my dogs. Strong bigger dogs with strong prey drives, I wasn’t sure I would be able to do a great job managing them. As a result our world was small. Back yard. Acreage where there were no other dogs. No “normalcy” re walks and going on outings with them together. Through the guidance we received from Kristin’s, our dogs are now a pleasure to take anywhere and they are happier calmer dogs now that I’m truly the boss. Thank you!
Hi Kelly, thank you so much for sharing your experience! I'm thrilled that my coaching has helped you and your dogs enjoy walks and outings together, and that they’re calm, clear and happier. We really appreciate your kind words and support!
Love it, feels great is a heavy duty hoodie…wish it repealed rain.

**Three Years of Growth, Learning, and an Incredible Journey with Chance ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐**
When Chance and I started training with Christine three years ago, I had no idea just how much this journey would change us both. Looking back at where we started and where we are today, the growth has been absolutely incredible!
Christine has not only helped me become a better handler, but more importantly, a better trainer. Her knowledge, experience, attention to detail, and ability to understand each dog as an individual are truly exceptional. She doesn’t just tell you what to do — she teaches you why you’re doing it, how it works, and how to become a thinking, confident handler.
What I appreciate most is that Christine never stops challenging us to improve. She sees potential even when you don’t see it yourself, and she gives you the tools, knowledge, and confidence to bring that potential out in your dog.
Chance and I have had our challenges, our breakthroughs, and plenty of learning moments along the way. But every lesson has brought us closer to becoming a stronger team. And after three years of dedication, hard work, and perseverance, we finally achieved our very first IGP title! That accomplishment means more to me than words can express.
What I’ve enjoyed most is watching Chance develop, seeing our partnership grow, and realizing just how far we’ve come. The knowledge I’ve gained goes far beyond training my own dog. It has completely changed how I understand dogs, training, and the relationship between handler and dog.
Christine, thank you for believing in Chance and me, for pushing us to be better, and for never compromising on the quality of your training. You’ve played an enormous role in our journey, and I’m incredibly grateful.
Three years later, we’re still learning, still growing, and still hungry for more. This first title isn’t the finish line — it’s just the beginning!

Excellent Prong Cover
This is an excellent prong cover. Although, it was a difficult to install, once installed, I was very much impressed with the secure fit, durability, and look. It fits perfectly and securely to the prong collar. Once the collar is put on the dog, it would be almost impossible for the cover to come off. Also, it's made of a thick silicone, which makes it highly durable eg, no snags, rips, etc running thru bushes. It's also easy to clean /will dry quickly. Best of all... with this cover securely fitted on the collar, it isn't possible for the links to come apart/ thus, a secondary collar is no longer required (as safety attachment to prong collar). Highly recommend this quality product to everyone. (Tip: To make installation easier, use a wooden kebab skewer to push the "rectangular" knob thru the semi circle ring at ends of prong collar!" I first attached the round knobs into the links, then, cut the ends off. Lastly, used the wooden skewers to push retangular knobs thru. Hope this helps)
