We had rain on Thursday - down pours, anywhere from 1.5 to 2 inches in 8 hours, depending which part of the state of Rhode Island you were in. There was a 3 hour gap between the major storm, and the back end of it, so we donned our raincoats and went for a walk.



Willy's raincoat is just a tad too large for him, lol. The reflective straps showed off my flash nicely [*-)]

Tasha has a pink camo rain coat. That is Lacey behind her, in the first photo.

I like Sugar's rain coat best, as it covers the entire undercarriage -- anyone with a small dog knows how wet and mucky that area can get!

I haven't got one for Lacey yet; and Marlin's is bright orange, but he didn't go out that day. I picked up these for under $3 at a clearance sale over a year back; wish I could find one more for Lacey, the thought of spending $25 and more irks, lol!



More to come

Then it got REALLY cold (10 degree F) so we put on winter coats for walkies.

Willy has a lovely tartan, and Lacey has a pink coat.

That's all, thanks for looking.

Looks like everyone will be nice and warm this winter :) My favorite is the red hoodie. Tasha looks so cute with the hood up :p

[Alysser]

The pups look great, as always!! You guys will surely keep warm this winter:D

[pomtzu]

They all look so cuddly warm. I swear - The Fluffs have a better and more varied wardrobe than a lot of people do. ;) Please deliver smooches and scritches to ALL. :love:

[Bonny]

The Fluffs look so cute & raring to go out to face the wet world. :D

[chocolatepuppy]

The weather sure keeps your fluffs changing outfits! They all look great!:D

[Asiel]

I've never seen so many cute dog coats. I sometimes check them out at the pet shops but none look so colourful and varied as the ones you have. I have to agree with POM - your dogs do have a fuller wardrobe than some humans:D
I think this gave me the taste to go buy my wee one a few coats or sweaters, she never acts cold even if it's -35 or lower but maybe she'd feel better with a coat - or she'll tear it off:D
Thanks for those pictures, all so very cute.

Thanks for all the comments!

The red hoodie is one of my faves, too. I got it at a discount / closeout sale, they only had the one. Now I'm thinking I need 2 more red and 2 blue. :D

Asiel, I seldom if ever buy clothes at pet stores. Most I get online from Pet Edge. A few I get from ebay.
