Thanks suzieque but my local rescue centres won't have anything like that as I live in Spain. I'm actually a volunteer at one of the homes ([url=]www.apahrescue.org[/url]), and it's very rare for the greyhounds to need coats. I want to knit a whippet coat for my daughter's dog who lives in the UK. I just fancy knitting one although he has plenty of shop-bought coats.
