I'm trying to decide which to but because his old one is ratty and keeps falling off. Average winter temps here are 35-20 degrees F.

Winter warmth and protection. Nylon outer shell resists wind and weather; fleece lining holds in warmth. Bias surcingles and buckle front closure. Imported. Navy/hunter.

Which one should I choose? Will the velcro in the first two ware out or not hold as well as the buckles?

I personally love the 2nd one, but then again I think I am slightly influenced by that adorable corgi. ;) I think it would look adorable on Niño, too, plus I like how it's reflective, which is handy in the winter months since it gets dark so early!

I like the first - but also the last because it's fleece lined.

I like the last because one it looks comfortable, two it will keep him warm and rain off his hair, and three because it's fleece lined which makes it soft, and like I said before, very comfortable. If I was a dog I would LOOOVE it!

Second one!! :D It looks so durable, and comfy too. Besides, I adore "Weatherbetta", I use them for my horse blankets and sheets too! :D

I like both the first and second one, but I think the second one would look better on him. :)

My computer won't let me see the last one it won't let me on their web site. Can someone post the pic in a post. ( because my dad has blocked some sites for stupid reasons, I can't get on IMOM either :( )

I really like the first one. I probably just prefer the colour. The second one looks warmer, though... Just going by looks, I'm no expert.

Q: It says ajustable, would it ajust big enough for a greyhound chest? I was thinkin of getting Jen a coat, because she's getting older.... :(

Greyhound girl, why would your dad block dover saddlery? He doesn't want to looking at horse supplies? :confused: They've diabled rightclick on that site.
I think I've narrowed it down to the last two. I've also heard good things about WeatherBeeta. We use Rider's Int'l for our blankets at my barn, cheap, yet they hold up.

He doesn't block each site individually, he blocks certain words, I think PAYMENT is one of em. :rolleyes: So I can't see the last coat.

They all look like good coats. Is there a color you like best? Can you try them on anywhere or are they only online? If you can try them on maybe go with best fit.

unfortunatley only my tack shop would sell them and they don't allow dogs because they have a dog-agressive dog that comes to work with the owners.

I like number 2. It looks like it is easier to adjust in the shoulders.
Of course mine loveeeeee the cold, and even lay in the snow. When it snows up, which it does all the time, I have to put their collars back on them, so I can make them come in the house when I have let them out.
