Molly's makeshift cold weather wear
Molly and I are having a rough go these days but I took these pictures and they made me smile... and smiles are best shared with friends so, I post them for you.
It's been COLD and with Molly not being so well, I'm trying to keep her warm when she wants to venture outside. First try... a way too small jacket with a fleese blanket underneath  Worked pretty well but was so NOT stylish  and it didn't cover her belly... So, I tried out one of my vests on her  I think it worked out really well! and the black absorbs some of the sun for extra heating capacity Not too shabby  Perfect ball chewing gear   sorry no standing pics.... she's having a mostly laying down day

The vest was a great idea!
 although I thought the first solution was pretty snazzy.  Looks really warm and actually pretty sylish...that layered look is in, y'know. But the vest was a stroke of genious--warm but not too bulky! I love the "Not too shabby" picture--she looks so regal!

She looks comfy enough in it--plus very proud to be wearing something of mom's!

Otter, what are Molly's measurements? I might have something that could fit her. I have SO many big dog coats, it's ridiculous! She looks happy to be outside though!
 And I think your ideas were actually really clever! I had to do the vest thing with Petey once too when we were on a trip and it was much colder than expected.
