Actually, our flyball teacher was the one that came up with the idea of toweling cooling jackets. She made some for their flyball team. She’s VERY good at sewing. She might be willing to do a bit of commission work. Send me your email if you’re interested and I’ll pass it on to her.

Pamela, if you saw it in close up you wouldn’t be so keen to part with money for it! Sewing isn’t my strong point – it was a labour of love !

If your dog has a coat then use it as a template and cut it out of toweling. Then use bias binding to bind the edges. A bit of elastic at the front and a button underneath. That’s all there is to it!

Who’s Nike ? Does he like to chew things too ?

Kirby, just ask your mum to do it….look at her with big sad eyes and she won’t be able to say no!

The jackets aren’t for sale, they’re one-offs tailor made for our dogs, and the labels are obviously tongue in cheek. I’ve a feeling Nike would be more worried about all the knock-off garments for sale than a couple of Beagle jackets made from towels!

You might need to change the logo on the label – just to be on the safe side (copyright).
