Hello everyone !

I know it's still summer.. but I was wondering if you know some websites with lovely whippet coats ?

Or if you have a picture of your whippet with his/her coat, please post some !

I'm already looking around and try to get some ideas for Dobé her coat.

Maybe I'm gonna make the coat myself, and I want to get some inspiration about the colour, the model of it and materials..

So all the information and pictures you've got are welcome.

Thank you.

I already like these, but I'm still wondering if whippets like the high polo in their neck..
 
Ellen,

The orange coat Beau is wearing is the one I bought at the club fun day. Max's yellow coat is the one I copied. They are made out of polo fleece and keep them soooo warm. Max's coat only took about fifteen minutes to make once I had made the pattern up.

This is one of the coats I ordered from Nancy at Canine Creation
 
A couple more of Nancy's coats

This is the same coat as above only the reverse side. It also came with a detactable snood, hence the different colour collar
 
Hello Karen,

Thanks for the pictures and information. They are lovely.

Does your whippets like the high polo in their neck ??

Some people told me, not all whippet love it. So I was wondering..

Greetings

Glad you like the coats Ellen. They don't seem to be even slightly bothered by the high necks. Nancy also includes a button hole at the base of the neck to fit a lead through.

These are the raincoats from Nancy. They have a sherpa wool lining and a removable hood visor

They don't look to happy with the visors and I haven't used them as it hasn't been wet enough. Probably won't use them either judging by the look on their faces :lol:

Feel like Dessie, don't go posting links to coats.  They've got dayglow coats, great for walking in the dark of winter :thumbsup:

LOL! Stop encouraging me!!! At a recent Open show Millie and I went to I bought a lovely snakeskin (nylon) collar & matching lead for Django, then Millie tried their K-bans (sunglasses for dogs!) on him (unfortunately we didn't get a pic!) and I then, when I got home, found a leaflet for their products in the bag so, naturally, I just HAD to look at their website and they do fabulous coats as well. I can feel a couple of the bodywarmers being sized up here!!!

Nice link Dessie. I liked the baseball visors. Hope Zommie doesn't see this site, they've got a Regal line of coats for kings and queens.
 
Hi

If you go on to the JAYCOATS website Peggy Crosse makes coats specially for whippets all types and all sizes .

I'm not sure of the web address if I find it I will post it later but she will make a made to measure coat for your whippet at quite reasonable prices and can mail them to you.

She made me a waterproof fur lined coat specially for my greyhound as it was made to match my other coats .It had to be made specially as he needs a 32'' coat and the greyhound coats she normally makes are not that big tjis cost me including postage £32 and it arrived two weeks after ordering it. You can either order on line or by phone

ALL our dogs have wonderful coats whcih they wear ALL year round. They come in various colours and fit perfectly and, better still, dont need to go in th washing machine to clean them.

Hi Ellen,

The coats/jumpers that you posted pics of are selling on ebay at the moment. £16 each, knitted to fit your dogs measurements. They're from a lady in dorset, uk but she posts worldwide I think
 
Dolly's coat came from Vicky on K9 too. Excellent quality. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

As you know, we've tried to make a coat for Dobé...

The first one is finished !!! :thumbsup:

I actually wanted to make a grey one, but couldn't find some nice fabrics in that colour (It's still summer and those are winterfabrics..)..

So, we've tried to make a brown one.

Here the first pictures :

We're also gonna try to make another one, different pattern.

I'll let you know if that one will succeed.

Greetings
