made another doggie jacket!!

I looooove the colors. I think it turned out pretty nice!!

this one is made with 200 denier coated oxford on the outside & cotton fabric that's insulated on the inside.

You have the gift of sewwing....and I'm jealous.....about the only thing I can make with a sewwing machine is a rice bag. I love your doggie jackets!

thanks! now if I could only figure out how to make my own clothes!! I think the doggies almost need their own dresser to keep all their 'gear'

Amazing! I think we need to see it modeled on one of your pups, though. :o)

I can see if it fits akyra, i only had a small amount of oxford left, so its smaller than what 'should' fit my dogs. I got the green fabric yesterday & just 'had' to make something! LOL

From what I can see, you do amazing work. I think you really need to start putting your talents to work for you & start selling stuff.

Completely agree with gradyupmybutt!! Your product would sell like hotcakes if marketed right. Impressive work!

One word for you Akyramoto - etsy. You could sell the doggie coats, the goat handbags, anything and everything you make!

Edit - Ouu, mindif I check some out, I think that may be one of Sam's christmas presents!

Same with bella, she likes to take them off & tear out the guts :(

I think i just have to make her one that she can't get off. I think i might try the metal closures like they have on horse blankets. And maybe make it out of the 1000 denier cordura - basically the 'toughest' fabric I can find. My friend's dog is the same, he doesn't have any coats or sweaters because he tries to eat them!

thanks for looking!

wow! Sam sounds determined!! LOL I wonder if he'd do the same with leather?

have you tried that bitter apple stuff? ( i've never tried it before - i wonder if it has a scent lol, cuz I imagine with a determined 'gear destroyer' there would be a lot of bitter apple on everything! )
