Just got back from our mid-morning walk here in Aberdeenshire...........60mph. winds gusting to 70mph with drizzle off the North Sea. It was literally hard to stay upright on the more exposed parts of the walk, but "the wee man" loved it. They breed the staffies tough in this part of the world.

With winter approaching, what are your opinions on coats? Do staffies really need them or does the exercise keep them warm when out?

We have a warm coat for Rocky as he does have fine hair in places and would probably feel the cold. Have a look at Ancol they do some good ones. Zooplus have some on offer right now:

I would love Percy to wear a coat, but he literally won't move if you put a coat on him at wits end

Lexi lives out so is tough as nails. She pants walking so a coat would make her too warm i think.

I have a coat for Bella. She shivers when it's cold, even when it's kinda cold in the house. She's a delicate wee thing lol. It makes drying them a lot easier when they have been out in the rain as well Smile
