Mihachi Cable Knit Dog Sweater, turtleneck, leash hole

This cable knit dog sweater from Mihachi comes in five sizes and seven colours, so the fit is chosen by measurement rather than by guesswork. Size M has a 16" back length, a 13" neck and a 22" chest girth. The sweater is made of 100% acrylic and has a turtleneck collar plus a hole at the neck for a leash.

A leash clips straight through the neck hole

The sweater has a hole at the neck, positioned so a leash passes through it while the knit stays on the dog. There is nothing to unfasten or roll back to reach the collar underneath.

Does the sweater fit your dog?

Mihachi lists five sizes and states the Size M measurements, so a dog on the edge of one size needs a careful check before ordering. Measure around the widest part of the chest and rib cage for girth, then compare that number with the 22" chest girth of Size M.

• Size M is cut for a 22" chest girth, a 13" neck and a 16" back length.
• A dog whose chest measures more than 22" is not covered by Size M.
• Measure the neck as well as the body before choosing a size.

What owners report about the fit

Reviewers most often describe the acrylic knit as soft, and a few mention that the sweater fits well. Sizing is less settled: three reviewers find it runs small and two find it runs big, which points to measuring the chest and neck rather than choosing by eye. Four reviewers mention that their dog stays warm in it.

Cable knit, color choice and a stretchy collar

The cable knit pattern runs across the back of the sweater, and the acrylic yarn is the only material used. Seven colours are offered across the range, so the look can be matched to a coat or a collar.

The high collar is elastic, so it stretches to pass over the head and then sits around the neck. Because the collar is elastic, it also reaches over a dog with a broader neck than the body. Pair the neck hole with a leash and the sweater can stay on during a walk.

What customers say

Customers love the dog sweater's appearance, particularly its turtle neck collar and pink color, and find it keeps their pets nice and warm, putting an end to constant shivering. They appreciate its softness that remains after washing, comfort, and quality. The fit and stretchiness receive mixed feedback - while some say it's accurate to size and has good stretch, others find it a bit big and note it stretches out quickly.
