Some Dog Sweaters...

Original Hot Dog Coat (same picture at both links) 

Well as most of you know weather here can get pretty cold in the fall. So i decided that Leo needed a sweater or two. I cam across this sweater, called the Hot Dog Crochet Coat that was featured in a Hooked on Crochet Newsletter. Caron Internationals has the pattern as well, called the Hot Dog Coat.

So I grabbed some trusty Red Heart Yarn. This is a dog sweater and will need to stand up to tons of washing.  My step-daughter also asked for the same dog sweater for her dog Tuck, so i m working on both at the same time so I don't get bored. Hubby shook his head, I think in resignation...lol.

The Outer Buns of the sweater with Leo

So I now have the Outer buns done for both coats and I am starting the Inner Buns. What a cute pattern but one that is difficult to crochet watching tv, especially during Dog Whisperer. I love how Cesar is with dogs..."I rehabilitate dogs and I train people." Love it.  His book Cesar's Way is a fascinating, no holds barred book. What a fascinating man.

Skull Motif Dog Coat

So while on the Caron Website I discovered this awesomely adorable sweater called Skull Motif Dog Coat also available at Favecrafts.com under the title of Skull Dog Coat. This one is so cute! The skull is a pocket and depending on the size of coat there is one pocket or two.  I am planning on crocheting a couple of these as well. I think it will give Leo that dapper look don't you?
