Camouflage is not really my thing! But it fit Ace and keeps him warm. I got it because all the other dog coats were more fashionable than useful. The vest was made to prevent hunting dogs from getting hypothermia, so I figured it would work for the mutt. I’m actually kind of embarrassed by that vest. Camouflage is not really my thing!

I think you're right, part of it has to be the nerves of the person going right down to the dog through the leash. <abbr><em>Maries last blog post..<a href="http://resqtails.com/2008/11/08/today-is-a-good-day/" rel="nofollow">Today is a good day!</a></abbr></em> I always think it’s funny that Twist often scores higher on his off leash work in Obedience than the on leash.

It's true. I didn't know bloodhounds had such thick fur. I'm sure Ace would love California. He hasn't swam in the ocean yet. I'd love to see a wave take him out. Ha, black dog syndrome! It’s true.

I love the vest. Yeah, Gus gets very hot since he's got very thick fur that is black. It has REALLY cooled off here next to the coast now (but without the snow). You and Ace should move here to SoCal and he'd be really comfy! Ha! I love the vest.

Abby suffers from the black dog syndrome too. That’s quite a sporty vest Ace is wearing – looks good on him. Abby suffers from the black dog syndrome too.
