Custom Printed Dog Coats For Working Dogs

Working dogs operate in public spaces every day and the way they are identified directly impacts their ability to work without distraction. From guide dogs navigating busy streets to training dogs learning focus and discipline, the right equipment matters. Custom printed dog coats are tools for safety, communication and professional identity.

Colan is a long-established UK manufacturer specialising in bespoke canine products. As a supplier to Guide Dogs, Pets as Therapy, Canine Partners, Dogs Trust and many other organisations, Colan brings years of experience in producing durable, customisable dog coats, bandanas and lead sleeves designed specifically for working environments.

Custom Printed Dog Coats For Charities

For registered charities, branded dog coats are essential for visibility and public awareness. These coats help communicate a dog’s role instantly, reducing unwanted distractions and improving safety in public spaces.

Our products provide:

• Clear identification for working dogs and dogs in training.
• Increased visibility with a wide range of colours and optional reflective strips.
• Professional presentation featuring charity logos and messaging.
• Consistency across teams and regions.

Colan are proud partners of a number of registered charities, including Guide Dogs and Pets as Therapy. Orders from members of the public cannot be accepted for these specific custom printed dog coats. Charities benefit from custom printing options and discounts on larger quantities, making it easier to standardise equipment across their canine teams.

Service & Assistance Dogs

Service and assistance dogs work in demanding, real-world environments where reliability and comfort are paramount. Custom printed dog coats help establish legitimacy and authority while protecting the dog during daily tasks. Clear printed text such as ‘Assistance Dog’ or ‘Puppy in Training’ helps the public understand boundaries, allowing dogs to stay focused on their handlers.

Colan offers a range of materials to suit different working conditions, along with adjustable Velcro straps or buckle fastenings for a secure, comfortable fit. Optional reflective strips can be added for enhanced visibility during early mornings or evenings.

Custom Printed Dog Coats For Vets

Veterinary practices often work alongside assistance or therapy dogs during treatment, rehabilitation or outreach work. Custom printed dog coats provide a practical way to manage client interactions, improve safety around clinics or car parks and reinforce the professional image of the practice. With sizes ranging from VVS (40cm girth) to XXL (100cm girth), Colan’s coats are suitable for all breeds.

Groomers

Presentation is part of a dog grooming service. Custom printed dog coats can be used to promote your business or when attending events, such as dog shows. A branded coat displaying your business’s name reinforces professionalism and increases brand visibility.
Practical features such as adjustable fastenings and durable materials ensure coats remain comfortable, even for dogs that are active or excitable. With a wide range of colours, our dog coats can be selected to match your branding.

Dog Trainers

Dog trainers rely on clear communication, both with dogs and with the public. Custom printed dog coats help signal a dog’s training status, reducing interference during sessions. Messages such as ‘Training in Progress’ or ‘Do Not Distract’ can make a significant difference in busy outdoor environments. Colan’s coats are designed to accommodate growing dogs, making them ideal for long-term training programmes. Trainers can also benefit from bulk ordering and custom printing, ensuring consistency across classes, demonstrations and working teams.

Customisation & Ordering

All Colan dog coats can be custom printed, but artwork or logos must be supplied in vector quality. Non-vector files may be subject to an additional charge. Sizes are based on girth measurements taken around the widest part of the dog’s stomach and it is essential to select the correct size, as printed coats cannot be altered once produced.
