Dog coat number 2. Much better this time. Unfortunately ran out of top material to make the straps underneath. At least there is no struggle getting it on and off.

Mum's got an AC/DC Rock chick coat on her Miss Sophie and she loves it. She's also wearing on other days a knitted pink and grey doggie coat. It's very cold here and rained most of the day. I love it!!!!!!!!!!

I love Keenu's coat - he looks gorgeous! Love Chris

We are also having a terribly cold winter. Our house is like a fridge

Mine too. Ours is weatherboard and we also have wooden floorboards, so the wind comes up through the cracks! Love Chris

I wish I could send some heat and humidity to you folks. Keenu is stylin' in his beautiful coat. I love the color blue too. Well done!

Thank you Karen. It will start to warm up in September. I cannot understand why no houses here have central heating.

Oooo this is so cute. The velco should be easier on both of you. He looks all comfy laying with his new coat on. Looking at your design, you went all out making this coat. I think you could sell these.

It was extremely easy to make. I saw one in a pet shop, saw how it was made and that was it

It is a bit more like a cape. Having a lot of fur I think this one is more comfortable.

I love Keenu's newest coat. He is beautiful, with or without it. We had pekingese dogs when I was a child. You've done an excellent job with your sewing, Sarah.

He wore it last night but at 4 in the morning he was fidgety. I took it off and he went back to sleep.

Did you go back to sleep too? I have enough trouble sleeping. Maybe now I don't have to 'live by the clock (retired) I can sleep better. I hope so.
My sister has two Yorkies and she is up all hours of the night with them. One is old and sickly. I told her it was like getting up with a baby, I'd never get any rest. No wonder she not a morning person-lol

Keenu is very handsome in his new coat. I find the Velcro under the belly catches on my Boo's fur, how did you avoid this as he also has long hair..
