  • our guarantee

    I stand behind the quality and fit of Alpenhitze

    We pride ourselves in this design and aim to deliver the best dog coat you've put a hand on. However, there are issues that may arise with any garment such as wear and tear, misuse and other end user problems. Here's the guarantee we stand behind..

    • The coat will fit if ordered per diagrams
    • If there's a fit issue contact me
    • I will ask for photos to review your fit
    • Next we'll ask at you resubmit measurements to compare with your original order
    • Tailoring will be free of charge unless you submitted measurements in error
    • Or if we goofed on fitting a unique breed like a Dachshund or Bulldog
    • If a measurement error is suspected we will contact you to discuss
    • Shipping "TO:" is the responsibility of the shipper either way
    • Wear and tear, rips and tears are not guaranteed unless it's a seam failure

    After 1,000 coats shipped and many seasons, Alpenhitze has proven to last. Polartec is a fabric and is NOT ballistic Nylon or chew proof. Coats are built with attention to detail and quality using the best materials and methods available. Under normal conditions your coat will last many, many years.
