Wild Things For Greys - Designer Apparel - Custom made in Las Vegas, NV. 
"I have always had the talent of sewing and had made things for my greyhounds from time to time. One of my greyhounds, Allie Mae, was diagnosed with skin cancer in 2000. Designing practical and wearable garments for her was out of necessity. She had to be clothed to keep the sun and elements away from her skin. Don't let the title fool you, I also design special order garments for other breeds. Each garment is handmade and designed by me. A little bit of my heart goes with every piece of clothing that is purchased."

Toastie Coats and Paws - various coats, and even pajamas for those cold winter nights.

ARTWORK, JEWELRY, CRAFTS, PATTERNS & MORE:

www.dog-art.com - Sarah Regan Snavely, Fine Dog Art & Jewelry, "If you have looked at my artwork, you can tell that sight hounds are my favorite subject. I do many breeds, but I take special pleasure in the rare and unusual ones. Dogs are my only subjects. My goal is to create pieces that reflect the peculiar nature of dogs and their behavior (and sometimes you might see something about humans too). I strive to be true to the breed standard in each piece."

Greyhound Manor Crafts has free patterns for making your own Greyhound coats, snoods and even Halloween costumes, as well as lots of great ideas for creating your own Greyhound crafts, such as stuffed toys, Christmas ornaments, cross-stitches, lawn-bobs and a whole lot more.
