Bailey has a warm winter jacket inherited from Breezer. It's fleece-lined on the inside, primaloft middle layer and tough nylon exterior - slows him down a little, but not much. Here he is tearing around at full tilt thoroughly enjoying himself!

How cold does it get for you? We know that whippets typically aren't real good in cold, but we're curious how he would handle it.
To a&mg:
The day that photo was taken it was about -7c (19 F), when it gets to below -10c (14 F) Bailey isn't all that happy about going out regardless of his jacket - mostly due to cold feet. My previous whippets were a bit more tolerant of the cold, in fact Breezer would roll on the ground to try take his coat off in -10c.
Here in Calgary it can go from +60 F to -22 F in a couple of days due to our proximity to the Rocky Mountains. Right now it's around freezing with a major wind chill so Bailey had his coat on for today's romp.
From reading a bit of your blog I understand you like cold weather :-) but I don't think your whippets would appreciate living in Alaska!
Thanks for looking, another entry tonight.
Ken
