Returns and exchanges

Free size exchange

Almost all Vartoviy K9 gear is sewn to the measurements of a specific dog. If the item does not fit, we will adjust or replace it free of charge — we pay the shipping both ways. Contact us within 14 days of delivery.

Refunds

Made-to-measure items are not subject to withdrawal as goods of proper quality (Art. 13 of the Ukrainian Consumer Rights Protection Act — the right of withdrawal does not apply to goods made to the consumer's individual order). For such items we offer an exchange or a size adjustment.

Stock items shipped without made-to-measure tailoring can be returned within 14 days of delivery, no reason required, provided the item shows no signs of use and the packaging is intact.

What cannot be returned

  • Items with signs of use: abrasion, dirt, odour, dog hair
  • Medical consumables from the first-aid kit once unsealed (Ukrainian Act "On Medicinal Products")
  • Items with custom patches, names or unit markings applied to order
  • Items altered or repaired by the owner

Defects or a wrong item

The 14-day limit does not apply here: if an item has a manufacturing defect or does not match the order, we refund 100% or make a new item, and we cover shipping both ways. Contact us straight away — no need to wait for the 14-day window.
