Item # 11

The 2011 Hope for Hounds collar, from 2Hounds Design,
just put out for sale last week ! 2 Hounds Design and Xan's Art designed a spectacularly beautiful collar for this year. Part of the funds from the purchase of this collar are going to Dr. Couto's cancer research program at Ohio State University. Your generous bids will go to help the Galgo's. It's a double win for the hounds!
The ribbon is a light blue jacquard weave, with bronze satin lining. The collar is 1.5" wide , size medium (14 - 18 inches), brass hardware.

Because each order is custom sewn when it is ordered, it may take up to 2 weeks after the end of the auction for you to receive the collar. The collar was ordered at the start of the auction.

Donated by Deb and River City Gang to help their Spanish friends.

item # 12

XL Nor'easter Blanket Coat by Zack & Zoey.

It is REVERSIBLE and really nice! It has reflective strips and paw print patterns on each side so it's great for night walks. The red side is water resistant with the plaid fleece lining. Reverse it, and the fleece side (also with reflective strips) gives a change of pace when water resistance isn't needed. It's shown on the 90 pound Rhodesian Ridgeback, Auggie and actually fits him pretty well, though could fit a slightly less muscular dog a bit better. It has wide, strong velcro closures in the front, and underneath.

This is for a dog approx. 24" from the base of the neck to the base of the tail. Suggested breeds are Collie, Golden Retriever, Lab, Vizsla, Weimeraner, Dalmatian, and I believe it would work well for a large Greyhound/Galgo.

It is machine washable, best to line dry.

item # 13

This time it might be your lucky number!

Large Shimmer Suede Jacket with Hood by Casual Canine. It's a lime green with natural colored faux sheep trim and a satin lining for cooler weather. The hood detaches and leaves a nice stand up collar. It has velcro fastening strips in front and underneath. It's machine washable, but line dry. The measurements on this are listed as follows:
Base of neck to base of tail: 16 - 20"
Neck: 16 - 20"
Chest (around at the withers, behind elbow): 18 - 24"

Greyhound, Licorice, is not large (55 pounds), but is a bit too muscular for it to fit properly. So a Whippet or other slightly shorter bodied dog would be an ideal fit. The sizing even suggests a Schnauzer. The hood buttons on and off of the coat.
