Sad woman seeks advice...

Yep, I am a sad woman.........

On the spur of the moment I ordered Jim a hoodie - with 'security' written on the back... :D Great company called K9, seems they are based in Brighton. I cannot complain about the quality or delivery or any aspect of their service, it was very good.

As much as I liked everything, i would like to get Jim some more and wondered if any of you were too as sad as me, and had any other sites that I could look at?? As Jim wore it for a joke at work, and it went down well with the customers, plus he feels the cold and is a right girl in this weather, I can't afford paying out for 'tops' that cost more than my own! Any ideas?

    You are clearly a woman of taste.
    No ideas for other outlets, but I really fancied the security one for mutt when I saw it in a shop just to wind up the neighbours.
    Not sure how long it would have stayed in one piece for though.
    And with the festive season approaching:

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    I can put you in touch with a lady that knits brill jumpers, any colour and to your own measurements. She doesnt charge much and and all proceeds go to The Animal Health Trust in Suffolk.

    The thing is...... Jim's a bit of a girl...

    Since the clocks have changed and the dark mornings and colder weather last week, I'ved had to almost drag the beggar to get out and into the car! He loves to go to work, even on Monday mornings, but now, he is really a pain! The car is cold, his harness is cold, he shivers and quivers on the front seat until the heating has kicked in... :o

    For a laugh, I ordered the 'hoodie' - it arrived at work today, which coincided with me buying him a raincoat... (I know), the coat was brilliant and kept him quite dry and it was awhile before he realised that he wasn't that restricted and could have a pee etc.

    The hoodie he wore indoors in the office (it can be quite draughty) and he was all snug and curled up in his (new) fleece bed, looking very unsecurity like. Tonight when left work, it had stopped raining and I left the hoodie on, got him to the car, he pulled back a bit, and as I was about to give in and lift him in, he jumped in like he used to! He's been a bit car phobic since the colder weather came in...

    I'm thinking of knitting him some jumpers too.... he obviously doesn't like the cold, come to think of it, he's alot like me really!! I'm just looking for sites where I can buy him some stuff and I pay LESS for his tops than I do for mine!! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
