If you thought your dog couldn’t get any cuter, you better check yourself. Now there’s a dog onesie that will keep your pet cute and comfortable around the house.
But this specialty onesie isn’t just for looks. It’s actually to keep your dog from shedding everywhere. As the weather warms up, dogs and cats naturally start to lose their winter coats. That means you’ll find fur trailing behind your pets — on floors, rugs, furniture, and more.
The Shed Defender debuted on Shark Tank back in 2018, and since then, it’s only grown in popularity.
It might look funny, but it’s a great way to keep your pup warm and comfortable while making it easier to maintain a tidy home.
This can be particularly helpful if you or someone you live with has a mild dog allergy.
Keeping fur from flying all over the house means cutting back on the dog dander that you’re exposed to. This is a great way to still spend time with your dog but without having to pop a couple of Benadryl.
What’s more, it can help your dog if they have allergies of their own.
There’s nothing worse than watching your poor puppy chew on their skin or rip their fur out because they’re itchy or uncomfortable. The Shed Defender is the perfect way to protect their skin and therefore, avoid further irritation. For this reason, it’s also marketed as an alternative to the dreaded medical cone that serves to prevent dogs from chewing on stitches or irritating already sensitive areas.
“I absolutely love this product,” wrote one reviewer on Amazon.
“It fit my pug perfectly. He has allergies and I use it to prevent him from chewing on his lower legs and the inside of his thighs. It’s the only bodysuit that covers his complete body.”
Another user wrote that they had sworn to never let their dog ride in the car — but this onesie changed that.
“Phoebe has short wiry, tawny-colored hair that embeds itself in fabric so well that I have to use tweezers to get it all out…and she sheds A LOT!” they wrote.
“I swore she would not ride in our new car with its pristine black interior. When it was obvious there was no choice, I thought of making her pjs to keep her shedding to a minimum. Now she equates the red pjs with a ride in the car and stands patiently while we slip them on. And I’m a happy camper because my new car isn’t full of dog hair. Thank you for saving the day!!”
The onesie comes in a variety of colors and is made from breathable mesh to keep dogs comfortable and able to move about easily.
If you’re wondering, dogs can use the bathroom while wearing it, too — you just have to unzip a small area near the tail so they can do their business. And of course, it’s unexpectedly adorable to see a dog in a onesie.
