Inexpensive Dog Coat |
|
|
My elderly dog was getting cold and shivery on her daily walk-abouts in the back yard. I looked at dog sweaters but she's a good-sized dog and they were $30! I went to the Salvation Army store, picked up a kid's sized fleece zip-up vest. I put her front legs through the arm holes and zip it up over her back. She stays cozy and best of all, it cost me $1.25!

I think it's a great idea, but don't the zippered
ones come with hoods? What do you do with
that part?

This works for small dogs too. My 8 pound toy poodle wore preeemie/newborn tops as sweaters. At thrift shop prices, he had quite a wardrobe. He passed away in November at 17.5 years of age. I took his things to the SPCA to use for other dogs.

Good for you..Old dogs and young ones feet get cold too. Wrap them up when you get back from a walk with warmed in the dryer old towels.Here is Buddy after a rare rain shower. GG Vi

Marna!
What a great idea! I was thinking $35-40 was too pricey
for a dog coat. What a great alternative! Thanks for the great idea!

What a good idea. I'll have to check out our thrift shops. Thanks for posting the idea.
