When I got my first dog, Maximus, I didn’t know that dogs needed coats in the cold. I only found out after he got (thankfully minor) frostbite on his belly.
I felt awful—like I had completely failed him. But why had no one told me this before?
The truth is, when we don’t share what we’ve learned—whether it’s a hard lesson, great advice, or a product we genuinely believe in—we make it harder for others to avoid the same mistakes.
After that day, Max never went another winter without a coat. But finding one that fit well, lasted, and actually did its job was a challenge.
It wasn’t until years later that I found the one—a used Chilly Dogs coat at a fundraiser. It was already several years old, and even now, 3.5 years later, that same coat is still in incredible condition.
And now, Quinn (Maximus’ protégé) and I get to take that love for the brand one step further… Quinn is officially the first-ever Chilly Dogs ambassador!!
We love this Canadian-made Ottawa-based company, so this is a perfect match!
That means I get to share something with you: you can get 11% off anything Chilly Dogs sells with the code QUINN at checkout.
In a world that moves fast and chases trends, I think one of the best things we can do (whether in business or life) is talk to people we trust about what actually works.
Whether it’s a product, a company, or a piece of advice, real recommendations from real people matter.
So, if you’re a dog owner in a cold climate, here’s my advice: get a quality coat for your dog. It’s not just an accessory—it’s protection. And if you’re looking for one that lasts, I can confidently say Chilly Dogs is a brand worth knowing about.
Because if their coats can survive a Great Dane’s adventures, they can handle anything.
