What a sweet gift for your fur-baby. He's probably just reacting to the paparazzi that want to take his cute picture! He'll love the coat soon!

Where did you get your pattern? It fits so well. I have low riders too-just the large economy size and they are difficult to fit.

.... but.... is your coat pattern easily adjusted for the circumference of the dog?

It's for all sizes; I made it about 1 1/2" longer than the pattern called for. I also moved the straps under his belly forward 1 1/2". McCall's M4686 is the pattern. I did Version B.

What could be better than a custom made coat? You did a great job and Scooter looks so handsome in it. Maybe he is just shy and doesn't like all the attention?
