My puppy coats can be ordered thru the "Alchemy" portion of my Etsy.com store.
His first coat was a fleece/fleece coat: Fleece double sided coat with a hood and long sleeves.Non-pill fleece, blizzard fleece or other specialized fleece is recommended.
This is the "0" puppy size of 14-16" from collar to tail, and should fit most puppies between 6-9 weeks of age. I recommend this coat be single-sided fleece for future production as the double-layer of fleece did make the coat fairly heavyweight, and he outgrew it faster. However, if you live in a particularly cold area, this may be a good idea. For a 'stockier' dog such as a Rottie or Mastiff puppy- measurements given will be critical for this coat to fit well, and work for the 2-3 week period before puppy needs a size "1" coat.
The second option is a cotton/fleece coat:
The shell is a lightweight cotton, and I am preferential to 'novelty' prints that quilters use. This particular fabric I have refered to as "Mouthy Little Monster" as my puppy is teething something serious and he IS a mouthy little monster at times. Cotton shell with polar fleece lining in the body, sleeves and hood.
I made the sleeves on this coat shorter as his feet are getting larger and it's difficult with the claws/feet growing to get them through the longer sleeves of his size "0" coat. I also created more of a 'scoop' waistline for my male pup so that when he 'squats' to relieve himself, he doesn't wet the waistline of his coat. Elastic banding across the back of the coat, over his spine, keeps the body of the coat snug to him, and gives him more room to grow. Also, the hoodie of this coat is smaller, as it becomes a more 'style' factor than actual need to cover his head/ears. With a Dane pup, your puppy may have had an ear-crop surgery at 9-12 weeks, so a hood is more for show than use- it does make the coat unique and 'cute'.
This is a size "1" puppy coat, suitable for 18-22" length puppies, average 9-12 weeks of age. This coat can be done with a flannel lining for more moderate climates, or for puppies of this age range in spring temperatures where a coat is a good idea, but it's not below 35-40 degrees.
I am configuring a water repel/fleece and a water repel/flannel coat as well, photos to come.
