PJ is determined to have something for Shadow to wear when she is in the woods with him. I have bought 5 different sweaters. Ones that fit her around her big ole chestical area she walked right out of the arm holes. Coudn't find a coat that was long enough to cover her to the tail - that velcro'd under her chestical area that is warm enough. I got her the doxie delights harness but it doesn't offer any warmth.
HELP ME - He is making me :duh: buying and taking back...

Target had (when I was in the US in September) an awesome green sweater with leaves on it. It keeps the boys nice and warm.
Something like this might work too and you can hook a leash to it.

I have only naked dogs... but maybe Land's End? They have lots of warm dog clothing.

It's hard to find the perfect outfit for the doxies... especially the huge chestical area. lol. Didn't you get the fleece from Judi? It's long enough for Gigi and covered pretty well for her. Though I really want something form-fitting for Gigi, it keeps her warmer that way.

this is what Alex wears, Sandi. It's the only thing I could find a) that she'd grudgingly agree to wear, and b) fit her. It's waterproof, and has a fleece lining.
Greenhawk has a couple of other types too.
