Re: Just ordered a dog towelling coat It's arrived and we have tried it on and Lady thought it was the cat's whiskers! ;D To be honest Labs don't need a coat for our winters in UK. They just aren't cold enough. Her "dressing gown" is for when she is sopping wet and has to sit still for a while in the cold ie back of car. I'm hoping it will also catch a lot of the mud when we get back from walks these dank winter days.
Re: Just ordered a dog towelling coat What a good idea. I often wonder why we painted our porch cream when it should have been mud coloured! I think a coat to mop the wet coat up when we get home might be just the thing. It is raining very heavily here in North Northumberland today; looking on the positive side it gave us plenty of opportunity to practice our shake on demand command. Alice

Re: Just ordered a dog towelling coat you would have laughed. Used the dog towel coat for real after our walk last night, then took it off and put it over my knee. Lady nuzzles up trying to get back under it to put it on again. ;D
