The emperor's new clothes

I'ts nearing the end of May & we're getting sub-10'C night temps so it's time to thicken up for hibernation. Last winter was a particularly cold one for Sydney so I made a vest like thingy using some scraps for the dog but the elastic is now gone & bits of it is torn also from rolling around, so this past weekend I spent a morning making a new one using a more durable material & a free pattern that I found online. It is now off-white poly-vinyl with a snazzy cyan-blue velcro from neck-snap & buckle around the waist, very stylish. The padding, however, is quite bulky so now B looks more like a Merino sheep than a dog when he has it on. You can see his other photos here.

* Yay, even the titanium ring has arrived!
