Great Product!
I had bought a different brand at first and it was horrible. Did not fit whatsoever even after following the sizing chart. I decided to try the Shed Defender and was pleasantly surprised. I have a Mini Australian Shepherd and she sheds like crazy. This one fits perfectly, I ordered a medium, the material is much nicer, I like that the neck area goes up farther, and love that she can pee and poo without having to basically take it off. The other brands, only the males are able to do that. Very pleased and worth the price.

Surgery recovery suit
Great product! I did not buy it to protect against shedding, I purchased because my fur baby had surgery to remove two tumors. Very large incisions. Day 3 and my boy wants to lick through all the stitches. The cone/donut is not comfortable for him. I received this product after some delay and size guessing. But it’s going to be a good solution. We live in St. George, Utah. Southern part of the state. Right now we are 95 degrees this suit is light weight and allows him to be cool, relieve himself without fuss, protects his wounds, and allows him to be comfortable while he heals!! I probably should have gone down one size, but was not sure what to expect. Again, great product! Will buy again!

Fabric is nice but it runs small in the arms and big in the body
This really was not tailored with a dog's body in mind. Maybe the general idea, "heres a torso, now sew some legs into it" but thats about all, and it shows. The front legs armpits are too snug, not fitted well for the dog's body shape. The hind legs are too large, also not fitted well. My boy, deapite buying the "sport" version, refused to potty in it outside. Seemed to not realize or understand that he could pee with it on. And in general he absolutely hated it. I bought him some of those sleeveless varieties and he likes those much much more. In this one he sorta flops over and pouts. Just laying there as if I've put him in a straight jacket-- and no, I didn't. The size i bought was at least 1, if not two, sizes too large. And no, going smaller won't make it fit better. Because for all the sections that it was too baggy in, it was still cripplingly too snug in the armpits. That's not gonna change by downsizing. Really a shame. I had high hopes. The material is nice. The zipper convenient. Would be better to run it along the top. The turtleneck is better than other varieties, and the entirely open crotch is great. But the arms are so poorly designed it just ruins the product completely. The $18 chinese brands that make you cut out the dick hole are vastly superior.

A Solid Option w/ Multiple Uses (but could use a few tweaks)
My Great Dane weighs between 130 and 150 lbs depending on how active we've been lately. He can wear either the XXL or the Giant without much noticeable difference. My Chin/Chihuahua mix weighs 5 lbs and wears the Mini. Here are some different reasons we've used these suits and how they work for each: 1. Fun/Costumes - This is the number one reason the dogs put their ShedDefenders on and they're a great addition for dogs that like to dress up. Flamingo. Super Hero. Distinguished Gentleman. Start with a ShedDefender. I just wish they came in more colors. 2. Shedding - Unfortunately, only the original long-sleeve, full-zip version really catches enough fur to be worth it. I've found with the others, there just isn't enough area covered to keep the hair in. If your dog gets hot or you're like me and forget to unzip the suit for potty breaks, the full-coverage suit might not be a great idea. 3. Warmth - While not strictly a warm fabric, these do help keep the wind/chill off your dog and help keep the snow from sticking to every inch of a dog that loves to dive head first into it. 4. Cooling - Both of my dogs get hot easily. On some occasions, I've made the dogs wear their suits so the sun isn't hitting their white fur/skin directly and then I soak the suit in water to help keep them cool. There's probably something on the market that does this function better, but this will do in a pinch. 5. Recovery - The suit itself certainly helps keep tongues and dirt away from healing wounds. I did find that it was best paired with a donut to truly keep the wound untouched, though.Some other random thoughts: They're not indestructible. Ours have developed holes and pulled at the seams in places I wouldn't expect them to. The legs could be longer. The legs are unhemmed so you'd think they would be long enough to trim to your desired length. Unfortunately, they feel short on my Great Dane. The suits slide down a little. I periodically have to pull the ShedDefender back up my dog's neck and body as it will continue to stretch and slide down regardless of size and on both dogs. The legs on the "sport" version are a little too open and tend to get caught as though my dog's pants are down every time he lays down.

Sizing inaccurate
Good quality, well made, heavy duty zipper. We bought the 3XL for our male mastiff (135 lbs, 39” chest)to help contain shedding hair and the XL for our female poodle/lab/golden mix (70ish lbs, 30”chest) to protect her from iceballs in the snow.. I appreciated that these gave plenty of room for our male mastiff to pee.Despite using the size chart they were way too tight in the chest and front legs. The 3XL actually fits the doodle in the chest and length of the back, although baggy on the tummy and rear legs. She is quite cozy hanging out in the 3XL but I do not think it will work for snow.We got other cheaper jammies/ onesies for the mastiff that work for containing hair (although needed some alterations for him to pee). Will have to return.

Was damaged within 24hrs
Sadly, this didn’t work out for my pup. Purchased it to cover up many hot spots from itching/chewing self. The sizing/fit was a bit off (I followed the recommended weight guide: ordered size L in Heather Gray for my 56 lb Doberman). The fabric suit was chewed and torn within 24 hrs. Was hoping for more durability considering the price :(I do like that there is an opening so the suit doesn’t need to be removed for potty breaks. However, I wouldn’t recommend this product if you have an itchy pup with hot spots that loves to chew.

Amazing Onesie
Very confortable and easy to use. We love using this onesie to keep our dog clean especially when hiking. It also helps to keep ticks away and less work for us checking for ticks after hitting trails.

Definitely worth it big enough for a st bernard
If you have a dog who sheds a lot this is what you need light and stretchy bought giant for our st bernard with plenty of room for him to feel comfortable will definitely buy another one but will go with darker colour next time just would of liked every colour to be the same price

Not as depicted.
Fit is inaccurate, very tight around seams despite all the measurements aligning to the graph. The quality isn’t as depicted, very thin and flimsy. Incredibly disappointing.

Fits small
I measured my dog to make sure this fit properly. The item arrived and was extremely small for my 4 pound chihuahua. She is unable to wear it. Very disappointed as this product was not cheap.
