Why Doggles?
Especially useful for when your dog rides in a sidecar, on a motorcycle, or in the back of a pickup, he/she needs eye protection. Even in a regular sedan, we all like to roll down the windows to let our dogs stick their heads out the window. Use Doggles to protect their eyes from flying debris.
The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) has set standards for UVA and UVB protection in sungoggles. ANSI requires that a pair of sungoggles block at least 50 percent of UV rays.
Check the label! The ideal sungoggles do not have to be expensive, but they should block 99 to 100 percent of UVA and UVB radiation. Our labels read "UV absorption up to 400 nm," which is the equivalent of 100 percent UV absorption.
For dogs with the increasingly common eye disease, Pannus, Doggles are proving themselves very useful. It is well known that dogs with Pannus should stay out of direct sun and get protection from UV light. Doggles are a great alternative for those dogs that can't stay inside during the day.
Training Your Dog to Wear the Goggles:
Training your dog to wear the goggles can be accomplished in a small amount of time if you follow these easy steps:
1) Don't put the goggles on your dog while indoors. Imagine yourself wearing dark tinted glasses inside. You cannot see,and neither can your dog.
2) When you first put the goggles on your dog, don't let him paw at the glasses or roll to get them off. Reassure him that its okay. Take him immediately to bright sunlight and let him realize that he can see with them on. Walk around, get his mind off the goggles.
3) Try to go through this routine as often as possible. The number of training sessions required depends on your dog.
Most dogs will readily accept Doggles after a short adjustment period. Sizing Chart:| XS | 1 - 10 | lb | | Small | 9 - 25 | lb | | Medium | 20 - 60 | lb | | Large | 50 - 100 | lb | | XL | 100+ | lb |
