Description
UV BLOCKING - a UPF-50 rating that blocks 98% of the sun’s harmful UV rays. It is not a chemical treatment - it's a mechanical quality of the yarn so the protection won't diminish with washing. It's especially important for our pink-skinned friends!
REDUCE HEAT ABSORPTION - our darker colored pals really benefit from the heat-reflective shade these tees provide! We tested our black Lab, Luke, out in the sun with an infrared thermometer gun and found his fur was more than 40 degrees cooler under the Tee than out!
EVAPORATIVE COOLING - Cool everybody down simply by getting the Tee wet! None of those heavy ice packs or gel inserts. Just comfortable lightweight easy moving tee that won’t get stinky (it’s antimicrobial).
See the cooling in action in this video!
SKIN CARE - Super comfortable indoors and out and perfect for skin conditions, wound care, topical medications and allergies!
CALMING - a close fitting Tee can really take the edge off for an anxious friend plus it’s comfortable enough to wear all day!
Sizing is the same as the Stretch Fleece and is designed to fit snug. Though the material is different, it will still stretch to fit like a glove!

Disappointed with return...
After measuring my dog and referring to the size guide the tee was still too big. The return process is frustrating... the size i needed was showing unavailable however when i searched on another device the size and color were available. Anyway, i love your products but dislike your return/exchange/refund process. I'll be looking for your products through local shops where the return prices is so much easier.

Sun...
My dog has very sun sensitive skin and he LOVES laying in the sun. Not a good mix. This sun tee paired with sun screen has made his favorite past time possible. The shirt is long in the back which give hangs over his underside when laying down, providing extra preotection. The material is stretchy so get two if you want this shirt to be worn regularly.

So grateful for these T-shirts
So far, I've purchased 3 of these T-shirts for my dog who has a permanent bald patch (aka "nakey spot") in a spot that's not easy to cover ... due to injury as a puppy and who now has an autoimmune issue that causes sores there as well. He already sunburns easily, but 2 of the meds he needs make him even more at risk for sunburn. So, these T-shirts help so much in protecting his damaged skin. We also live in Colorado in the mountains, above 8K feet, and the sun is VERY strong here.

As always....
We have a couple of fleeces, a raincoat and recently the tee. We live in Florida and since it's been crazy hot I dampened the tee before our walks( as suggested) and was able to put his harness on top. We're so pleased ( as we are with all your products) They function as advertised, and better yet contain no chemically treated fabrications. Thank you Goldpaw for being such a trusted source.

Love
I absolutely love this shirt! It’s great in the Florida heat and is so soft! The quality is exceptional. My yorkie loves it so much, I just had to order her 3 more! They will definitely be a summer staple for us!

Love this...
Great for spring/summer coverage from sun, ticks, etc. Lightweight so it doesn't add heat. Great for seniors who need extra protection. Washes well and air dries in 10 minutes. Made and manufactured in USA!

perfect
This shirt was exactly what we were looking for. Our foster dog loves his walks but has scarring on his mid to lower back up to his tail. I like that this is light in weight for the hot SoCal summers and will help with the sun since he is black and tends to get hot quickly. I sized up a little to make sure his lower back was covered easily without riding up. The size 22 would probably have worked as well but ordered the 24.

Love...
I have purchased multiple stretch fleece sweaters for my dogs, but this is the first Sun Shield Tee I have purchased. Our Doberman had 9 tumors/cysts removed and instead of wearing a cone, we placed her stretch fleece on her so she would not disturb her stitches. With the weather getting warmer, we knew she must be getting hot, so I decided to purchase a sun shield tee. These are great! It is light weight but still provides the coverage and fit of the stretch fleece. Not only does it protect her stitches, it also covers the areas of her body that were shaved until they grow back. It will also protect her exposed skin to the sun and prevent sun burns. Goldpaw sweaters are the only sweaters that my dogs will tolerate as the fit is amazing! For reference she wears a size 22 and we choose the color pistachio.

Best Sun-Protecting...
I purchased a thin black brown spotted coat without sleeves, size 10 at a Pet Store as it looked like something she would be comfortable in and would just fit under the harness. When I looked up Goldpaw, I noticed these are sun protected shirts and I was excited to find such an item. We walk when it is convenient, so it might not always be the best time of the day and the hot sun rays were drawn to her black coat. I thought that a size 12 would fit better than a size 10 as it fits a bit snug, but not at all tight. But then I read where the shirts are supposed to fit a little snug to help with anxiety, I was thinking someone for that help. SThe Store clerk tried it on and it fit perfect and I noticed Goldpaw sizing chart suggests the same size for Min Pins. She weighs 13.4 pounds now, so I am hoping when she loses to 10, 11, or 12 pounds that the shirts will still fit. Otherwise, I would purchase more now to have a variety. I purchased the pastel purple and pastel coral sleeve shirts. Min Pin and I LOVE these shirts. I also let her wear them to bed; just whenever she wants. She especially has the shirt on when we go for walks and riding in the car and the best feature is that it fits underneath her harness without bulk. I noticed in the other reviewers dogs, that the shirts are a looser fit than the shirt on my dog. Maybe that is the reason why the shirt rides up to the middle of the dogs body. My Min Pins shirt is flipped up by the wind just at the tail's end as the shirt goes a little beyond her tail. I wish I could send a picture. I will try. I might have to come back because with my iPhone it takes a day for the picture to show up in the quene.
