Prepared for Winter

Basenji Talk
  • Nice an toasty..Very cozy.

  • Brrrrrr, looks cold! Those jackets are great, I love the high-visibility color.

  • Now THAT'S some yellow!
    I see another thumbs/paws up for Equafleece…

  • I just love seeing people and their "kids" dressed up the same, its so adorable!

  • Love those Equafleece coats!! Not too sure about the fluoro colour though!!
    I just checked out their website - I think my oldies would like those.
    Are they prompt with sending the goods out?

  • Hi Kiwir
    I'm sure Mary at Equafleece would send stuff out pretty quick. I always buy mine at shows so not too sure about postal times. Give them an email and ask. My dogs have at least 4 of these jumpers each in all sorts of styles and colours. I wouldn't buy any other jumpers for them :)
    I should say I also have a jumper chewer. He hates having 'legs' so I just make sure I get him the jumpers without legs on.

  • Equafleece is amazing!! Oakley has three…and I always get mine quickly

  • Thanks for that - I'll email them tonight.
    I spent several hours on the computer last night checking out all different manufacturers, but kept coming back to Equafleece.
    Good news on the home front - Jerry still had his coat on this morning - untouched!!
    His sister Chloe (of course!) hadn't touched hers. It's marvellous how they discovered warmth was better than destruction.

  • I agree..I use both Equafleece and hurtta as far as clothing- both somewhat hard to get in New England, we also get frigid winters so I use the Equafleece as a liner for the hurtta… Oakleys spoiled and always warm!

  • Our winters here in Australia are not like yours in New England - we don't get snow where I am, but do get hard frosts. Cold days are 14C, but situated where I am on the side of a hill, the wind off the snow area 75 kms further up the valley can get a bit lazy - prefers to go through you rather than round you!!
    And as we all know - Basenjis don't 'do' cold!! My Swedish boy is cuddled up in his bed in front of the heater beside me. Silly boy still gets his summer coat in our winter!!

    For all those of you living in cold climates - I got a "Chilly Dog" coat (http://www.chillydogs.ca/) for Brodie a couple Christmases ago. It is a great design and super warm and has held up really well. A bit expensive but worth it. He also got a matching head muff which was supposed to keep his ears warm (this was when we were living in Ottawa and the -40C weather) but he hated having his ears covered.

    I got my package on Monday!!! :) I haven't had time to update but Dallas loved all of his gifts! He loved the loofa dog! He was carrying it all around the house with him Monday evening. He & our family dog have been playing tug of war with the rope that he received. Oh, and Tuesday he found the bag of milkbones on my dresser while I was at work…thankfully he didn't eat the plastic bag :rolleyes: The bones, obviously, are gone. Such a pig :rolleyes:

    I bought coats from Ruffwear for my boys and have been really pleased with the coats especially since we have gotten so much snow.
  • Winter exercise???

    If the wax doesn't work, try muttluks…my B wears them. It's funny at first for her, but she adjusts and takes her usual walks with them. Keep us posted on how the wax works...very interesting!
