    My dogs have a concrete pill when the forecast is bad... Its rain, not minus 20 in Norways winter!

    Especially a setter - you setter guys love saying how they are made for wet conditions

    A friend in Australia manages a pet store chain. Sent us 2 for a present. Have had to have the waist straps shortened, maybe they were originally meant for Labs!!

    Only use them in mid winter when its really wet/cold

    I saw jackets at Saddlery Warehouse - the same fabric as Drizabone - for $36. Half the price of the pet shops.

    Agreed, though some could argue a jacket can have a cooling effect on a dog in many circumstances... but if we humanise them, we can be sure they need clothes.

    This makes for a dry dog on a very vet day. More better for owners cars / houses, not so sure about the dog(s)
