Our bestseller: the 100% waterproof neoprene Dachshund winter coat!
This neoprene Dachshund coat is perfect for winter! Neoprene is naturally waterproof and windproof while also being breathable. The coat features a neoprene outer layer and a fleece lining for added warmth. The collar provides extra protection against the cold and can be worn upright or folded back.
As the name suggests, this coat is ideal for winter wear. It’s suitable for wire-haired, long-haired, and short-haired dachshunds, making it a versatile winter coat. While we primarily recommend it for short-haired and long-haired dachshunds in colder months, it’s also a great option for wire-haired dachshunds with little or fluffy undercoats. If your wire-haired dachshund has a thick undercoat and isn’t sensitive to the cold, consider the neoprene raincoat as a lighter layer. The fleece-lined neoprene coat might be too warm in such cases.
All our Dachshund coats are handmade by Eleonora in Italy. This means the coats are not mass-produced. After years of testing, we’ve finally perfected the “Dachshund fit.” The coat is extra long to cover your dachshund’s back, protecting the lungs and belly with a wide flap. It features Velcro closures on the chest and belly, making it easy to put on and adjust to fit your dog perfectly once you’ve chosen the right size using the measuring guide below.
This winter coat also includes an opening for a harness, allowing it to be worn underneath the coat—provided it’s a harness style that sits further back on the dog’s body, like Y- or H-harnesses. Other harness styles won’t align with the opening. Looking for a harness that always fits? Check them out here. Alternatively, our harnesses can also be worn over the coat.
Add extra warmth and complete the look with one of our matching snoods!

Sizes
In this size chart you can see what size your Dachshund should be.
NB! The advice based on Dachshund size and weight is a guideline. The advice remains: measure your Dachshund based on the measuring advice and compare the measured centimeters with those in the size chart. Do not rely on our advice about which size suits which Dachshund, every Dachshund is different.

Maintenance instructions
To ensure a long lifespan, wash the coat as little as possible. If it gets dirty, let the dirt dry and brush it off. The coat can be washed at a maximum of 30°C. Since neoprene is naturally waterproof, this waterproof layer cannot be “washed away.” Allow the coat to air dry and avoid using a washing machine.
