Hemp Hound

The Ruffwear Hemp Hound everyday knit sweater taps into the natural durability, breathability, and odor-resistance of hemp for warmth from town to trail on clear, cold days.

The open cap-sleeve construction and full-length zipper work in tandem to not only capture core warmth, but also give hard-to-fit dogs (broad shoulders, thick chests/necks) an alternative fit option with more belly coverage and full range of motion.

Technical Layer

Cozy on its own and layers well under a shell when weather gets wet, the Hemp Hound has quickly become the go-to sweater we turn to across all the seasons – much like we do with our own favorite hoodie.

Hemp/Cotton Blend

Warm and durable natural-fiber sweater made of 55% hemp and 45% cotton.

Core Heat Retention 

The snug fit designed to be close to your dog's body and sleeved style with zippered closure helps to trap your dog's body heat close to their core increasing natural heat retention.

Reflective Trim

If it's cold outside it probably means the days are shorter and dark walks are an everyday occurrence making keeping your dog visible a top priority.

A reflective trim promotes your dog's safety in low-light conditions and the light loop for attaching The Beacon included as standard on all coats is a delightful additional feature which is easy to utilise for maximum visibility. 

Additional Information

Note: the Hemp Hound is not pre-shrunk. When washed and dried according to these care instructions, our tests resulted in 1-4% fabric shrinkage.
