Like how genius is the swampcooler? I just cant get enough of thier stuff! The swamp cooler also has refective striping AND light loop for the beacon. I love the beacon. Whenever me and lace go for a late night walk/hike and i let her off leash or im at my cabin around when im around the bonfire, i can see her from a mile away. because its on thier back rather than collar, the sheltie hair dosnt cover it! LOVEE

RuffWear has some nice stuff, but when I was looking for a coat I didn't like sleeves and zippers for our purpose. I just need something that's easy to put on and take off because I'll be using it in between agility training runs this winter. We train outside at night, so I like to keep Phebe's muscles warm between runs to avoid injury. I just got a D-FA Sub-Woofer last week and really like it.

If you need something for bitter cold, there's a place called K-9 Topcoats that say their coats are good for -50. They specialize in coats for sled dogs.

Ruffwear has great stuff and is an Oregon company. I've had a coat for years from them as well as some other things.

I love Pet Value, btw, I do my best to support them.

I buy all my stuff at Pet Value now....or online at Ren's or Pet Supply House.

No matter which store I go into, the staff are always knowledgeable and friendly. And they sell no animals. I only wish the ones close to my home had a grooming salon.

ive decided im going to buy a web master harness for lacey in the red. I just think it would be very comfortable for her and i love the handle option. it is THE best harness i have ever seen and almost every one of the hundreds of reviews says it is the best. Its 50$ but i know ill use it daily, because we go for rollerblades/hikes all the time in the summer. We hike a little in the winter so ill be able to use it now as well. Im thinking the boyfriend might get it for me for c-mas :biggrin2:

i have been raving about it so much i think he just wants to shut me up... :smile2:

It is a great site to show different products, thanks for posting!
I know I need that slip lead, it is such easy to use at trails, also like that stow and go harness looks like it will be minimal damage to hair, I need to check what kind of harness will be good for future tracking...
Have no idea about needing a coat for my two monkeys- we just had those few days of totally nasty weather with cold and chilly winds, I was quadruple layered all over and still getting cold and my dogs were just planking their bodies in the snow and refusing to come in " what cold?... we are having fuuunnnn" :lol:

Ruffwear products are very well made my girlfriend carries their line in her pet store and they are very sturdy. I also shop at Pet Value they are right next to my grocery store so it's really convenient.

ugh i wish pet value carried more of thier stuff. so at my pet values they only have a few jackets and some booties. grr

I need the harness and would like a collar and a leash real bad!!

Last night I bought Sadie the Cloud Chaser Coat in a really nice blue color. Its very pretty but Toby could wear it too without looking feminine. I really like it because it will keep her insulated and dry, without being too warm. It is VERY well made. It was also REALLY expensive ($85!) but I luckily showed up when it was 40% off and it was the last one, and in her size. :biggrin2:

It is very well made, the coat I bought at Pet Value the other day is going back (They were sold out of everything good and the coat I ended up with didn't fit very well)

I also bought a coupler to try, it has an extra swivel so shouldn't tangle so easily. I bought the larger once that doesn't stretch as much.

no coats for us, I still do not understand why they need it- top of the back is where they have all this really nice thick fur and it is very water repellent, it is underbelly where there is not much fur but seeing my pups just sunbathing and stretching their tummy in the snow I can't imagine them needing it...
Let me know how this coupler works, I have beep eyeing it too but I need the one that will work well for 40 lbs Che and 10 lbs Leo...
