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!

Love These!
We purchased our first fleece tees several months ago to help stop our dog, Gracie, from scratching herself while dealing with mange. The fleece tees made her feel so comfortable that we started putting them on her at bedtime, even after she healed. When it started getting warmer, we bought the sun-shield tees and she loves them just as much. These are awesome and I've recommended them to several friends with pups. Thank you!

Almost...
Archie is 15 pounds and has hair not fur. He is white and his skin shows through his hair. We spend a lot of time on the Oregon coast where it is cool during the summer but the sun is brutal. This sun shirt is wonderful. It is snug but not tight, dries quickly, is easy to wash and then I dry on low for ten minutes. Best of all, I don’t have to worry about Arch getting sunburned. (We also put My Dog Nose It on top of his nose). If I had one complaint I would say I don’t like that the fabric seems to ruffle a bit around his haunches after a long day. Arch seems to love the security it provides as a wrap - keeps him calm and comfortable as he’s a bit nervous by nature.

Fun in the...
My greyhound wears his sun shirt during the day. We live in South Florida. On walks we put water on the sun shirt so it keeps him cooler. Even here the water evaporates quickly. We have several sun shirts so he has a clean one everyday. These are so soft and stretchy. I even got one for my brother’s All American dog. He’s 35 pounds with a 26 inch chest. The size 18 fits him perfectly! I would highly recommend these to anyone who is looking for sun protection for their pup.

Terrific tee!
My pup has sensitive skin as a consequence of chemical burns she sustained before I adopted her. She needs protection from the sun and from rolling. The weight of the tee is light which is great for warmer weather, and serves as effective protection when she wears a harness. Thank you for creating a great product!

Rico martin - Sun Shield Tee
Wow! Love this. And so nice that it’s protecting me from the sun especially when my mom won’t put sunscreen on me because she says it’s too messy.

Carrie Ouradnik - Sun Shield Tee
Our 50# pit mix came from Tennessee to live in Wisconsin - she was missing a bunch of fur on her shoulders/back from fleas, heartworm treatment, and MCT surgery. Between that, being underweight, and having white fur, I knew she would be prone to sunburn so this product is AMAZING. I'm so glad the rescue got us our first one and we have gotten 2 more since! She practically lives in her sun shield shirt, it kept her from scratching at her surgery spot as it healed, plus it is SO soft and the pink is so cute! Not to mention the totally cool bones and roses design that matches her pawrent's tattoos :) I also love that I can layer it in the winter with sweaters as it's a great fitted design.

Jordan Kolarik - Sun Shield Tee
Spent $1000+ on allergy treatments and nothing worked until this! Protects my miniature schnauzer sensitive skin from the sun and she no longer bites or scratches herself! It's the miracle we were searching for, truly!

Zaia & Zen - Sun Shield Tee
We are absolutely in love with the tees! My huskies normally do not like wearing anything that covers their body, but these were so light weight and comfortable that the dogs could play and sleep without trying to take it off. Love the look and material!

Denise vdb - Sun Shield Tee - Limited Edition Roses & Bones Print
This is ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS! We ordered a 2 for our little 3pd teacup but are exchanging for a 4. The 2 fit, but she's still growing. We have our 5.5 pd teacup in a size 6... the 4 fits, but a little snug. The quality of these is amazing!
