To be honest my girl doesn't really feel it. She is quiet bare on her belly but does just fine, we just make sure to dry her off good when we get in if it's wet out but the cold isn't a problem.

I do know that others have coats and I'm sure you'll get lots of suggestions. There are some ideas here if you scroll through :-

There is a woman who makes fleecy coats to measure on eBay. You just sent her your dog's measurements and she posts you one that is the right size. Several people on this forum have bought these, including me (ie, for my dog!) Put 'fleece staffie' into the eBay search. My dog does feel the cold and he wears this during the night in winter when the heating goes off. If he doesn't have it, he will be shivering in the morning. This suggestion is for warmth only, it's not waterproof.
