The Best Rainproof Dachshund Coats for Winter 2024
As winter approaches, ensuring your dachshund stays warm and dry is essential. With their unique body shape, finding the right waterproof coat can be a challenge. Here, we rank the top five dachshund raincoats and jumpers that combine style, comfort, and functionality, perfect for those chilly, wet days.
Teddy Bear Coat - The Sausage Dog Shop
The anatomical Teddy Bear Coat is the ultimate choice for wrapping up your sausage dog on a cold winter’s day. Developed in collaboration with a rehabilitation therapist, this coat is specifically designed to support the unique characteristics of the dachshund breed.
The elasticated material around the chest allows for a snug fit, stretching up to 4cm to accommodate every sausage shape. Made from durable waterproof fabric with a waterproof zipper, it keeps rain out while the soft teddy bear faux fur lining retains warmth, even in temperatures as low as -10 degrees.
For extra cold days, the neck warmer can be unfolded and fastened for added protection. With multiple cinches for comfort and D Rings for easy leash attachment, this coat is both practical and stylish.

2. Equafleece® Dachsie Jumper
Next up is the popular Equafleece® Dachsie Jumper. This rainproof and breathable jumper features leg holes instead of sleeves, ensuring a comfortable fit for our short-legged friends. The jumper features no zips or buckles that can interfere with a harness and is ideal for windy and cold conditions, keeping your dachshund warm.
If your dog gets wet, this jumper wicks moisture away from their coat, helping to restore their core body temperature quickly.
However, the belly panel is not waterproof and on rainy days the underneath of the jumper can become quite wet. This is made worse for dachshunds due to their tummies being so close to the ground (and puddles!), so we recommend wearing these on dryer winter days.
3. Doghouse Waterproof Belly Fleece Jumper
The Doghouse Dachshund Fleece Jumper is a clever solution for keeping your dachshund’s tummy dry during wet walks. Featuring a 100% waterproof belly panel and soft fleecy fabric on top, this coat is both functional and cosy. Plus, it offers optional embroidery for personalisation, making it a stylish choice for your furry friend.
However, for the waterproof belly panel, you have to pay a premium. Compared with the Equafleece® Dachsie Jumper the Doghouse fleeces are slightly more expensive.
4. Friday Fox Reflective Raincoat - The Sausage Dog Shop
For those who want their dachshund to stand out, the Reflective Raincoat is an excellent option. This coat not only keeps your dog snug but also ensures they are visible in low-light conditions. The super soft fleece lining provides comfort, while the water and wind-proof outer layer protects against unpredictable weather.
Adjustable Velcro straps allow for a customised fit, making it suitable for every sausage dog. These coats are a cheaper option, while still maintaining quality.
5. Dryrobe® Dog
Finally, the Dryrobe® Dog combines a unique fleece inner lining with a waterproof and wind-resistant outer layer. While they may not be specifically designed for dachshunds, this versatile coat offers quality protection from the elements.
It serves as a dog towel, coat, and drying robe, making it the perfect companion for adventurous outings.
