"It's a perfect fit and he looks so handsome in it. He knows it too because when he wears it out on his walks, if we run into someone, he actually stops and strikes a pose until he knows they've noticed him."
"I love this fleece for my smaller boxer mix but I wish I had paid better attention to the size details, the LARGE will not fit large breeds. The slip on design is great as you don't have Velcro or snaps to worry about. I will probably order another in a size up. Great jacket just pay more attention..."
