Cant Keep Quiet! » dog apparel http://cantkeepquiet.com "Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so." - Douglas Adams Fri, 13 Aug 2010 22:25:27 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 en hourly 1 Success! http://cantkeepquiet.com/2008/12/01/success/ http://cantkeepquiet.com/2008/12/01/success/#comments Tue, 02 Dec 2008 00:07:35 +0000 Laura http://cantkeepquiet.com/?p=1384 If you’ve read my blog the past few days, you know that I’ve been trying to get her a coat.  She’s always had a thin coat and now she’s lost a good bit of weight due to health problems.  She gets cold easily and shivers causing her to expend energy which causes her to loose more weight.  Nasty cycle.

Yesterday I found a coat I thought would work on-line at PetSmart.com.  I called the nearest PetSmart and they had one coat in her size.  Just one.  Thankfully, they were willing to hold onto it until this evening.

You can see the one I got here.  It fits okay but due to the weight loss the strap is a bit too long.  It also doesn’t cover her belly where she has the least fur.  It is made of wool, though, so it will be warm.

Someone I know has also offered to make a coat for Artie using fleece.  I’m going to take her up on the offer.  This way she’ll have a spare when one gets dirty and needs to be washed.
