    Yeah as per comments above, you'll need to be careful with the fleece ones mate. Some short-haired dogs are fine if they are worked close and not casting out and back all day, but a couple of the ones I've worked with wearing fleece hi-viz jackets like the Stoney Creek type have a tendency to get way too hot (and they don't know it until its a problem). No way would I work a dog with one of those types outside of cold winter weather, working dogs aren't designed for added insulation when its warmer.

    I've just tried to find the company in Aus that makes the lightweight mesh blaze orange or blue jackets, the deer dogs I hunted with in Victoria wore them and they're great. No idea what they are called. They make hunting ones with no reflective strips. May have even been an Alibaba product, who knows. Google a bit and you'll find them.
