Does anyone know of coats for large lurchers, that will withstand a dog that runs around
like a maniac at every possible opportunity? He has two coats, but we keep having to
repair them as he rips the stitching in the front. Do you know of any that elasticated or
strong enough to cope with running? He is between 28-30 inches from top of tail to
bottom of his neck, and stands at 30 inches at the withers.
This is the maniac in question, Charlie, we've had him since the start of summer, when he
was found running along the side of the A68. We don't know anything about him, but he
has grown an awful lot since we got him, so we pressume he's still quite young.
He's pictured with Saffie, who has slight addiction and fixation problems, with things like
toys, sticks, kittens and squirels. She is another rescue who we've had for two years,
(any ideas of her breed?!) who, having adjusted into a life as a spoilt princess, is having
lots of fun bullying her little brother, and stealing all of his toys.
This picture was taken when we first got him; you can see how underweight he was, and
he had a nasty scabby rash. He arrived from his temporary home with a friend, with a
bed; but he quickly decided that sleeping upsidedown on the sofa with Saffie would be
much more fun, and would allow him to stretch out completely (He can take up the whole
thing!) And yes, if you were wondering we are living in a static caravan while building a
house; possibly not the best idea ever...
