Brrr!

So I think that we had about one month of gorgeous fall weather and then, with Hurricane Sandy and Daylight Saving's Time ending, we just flew right into winter.  And, speaking for myself, I am not a fan.  I think Remy will agree for two reasons - fewer walks and colder weather.

Since Mr. Remy prefers to sleep in late in the mornings (as do I), I long ago gave up on walking him in the morning.  That left our evenings for our long walks.  Now, there's no way that's happening before the sun sets at 5pm!  Crazy!

As for the weather, Remy has a few items in his fall wardrobe, but I think I'll need to look for something even warmer for the cold winter months.  I had him for a walk the other day when it was windy and quite cool, and despite the fact that he had his jersey thundershirt on, he was still shivering!

I did some searching online and looked for coats designed for whippets.  I know I've been denying the idea of him being a mix with whippet.  Now thinking it's a possibility.  I just had to laugh when I saw this picture because the dog looked very similar to what Remy looked like in the rat costume I made him for Halloween.
