This whippet coat is shimmering olive green adorned with an intricate braid. It is windproof and water resistant and since it is smooth, whippet hair slides right off. The coat is generous, covering the hindquarters for warmth. A breast piece comes through the front legs and protects the entire chest area - great if your dog is curled up in a crate waiting for you.
The outer layer is a microfiber/pleather fabric. The inner shell is Polartec™ 200 weight fleece. The same warm, professional weight fleece found in human winter wear.
Only medium is available. The medium fits most whippets up to 30 pounds.
And, a big bonus is that this fabric is easy to care for - wash in cold water and dry in a cool dryer.
Construction:
- Buckle and Elastic. Quick release buckles makes it a snap to get on and off your dog. No Velcro tabs to snag and catch. A slide with gripping teeth holds the elastic in place, creating a great fit. Once adjusted, it fits your dog exactly.
- Professional. I use a serger for outside edges of the coat, which trims and smoothly encases the fabric. The elastic belt is securely fastened to the chest piece with triple stitching. Neck and collar seams are also tightly sewn.
- Styling of the neck piece. The extra long, soft minky fabric turtleneck can either be worn folded into a traditional turtleneck shape, or allowed to fall in graceful folds on the neck
