Greytcoats Greyhound Coats, Fund Raising for Sighthound
Charities I have my ex Hersham Hound Greyhound, Leah to thank for all of this.

When looking for the perfect greyhound fleece coat for her I couldn't find exactly what I wanted and decided I would design and make one. That led to some orders from friends who also wanted one made and so Greytcoats was created. Wimbledon Greyhound Welfare (Hersham Hounds) provided the guinea pigs and we made a few tweaks in the design so that it would suit most greyhound shapes. Since then I ha

ve been making them as a fund raising product for Hersham Hounds and have raised over £3000. The amount given to the kennels is £2.50 per coat. Leah was succeeded by the Black Beauties, Max and Ashley and now Jolly, who I have to say don't share her poise and patience as hound models but still enter into the spirit of things and are great company in the sewing room.

Thank you to all of my customers, past, present and future for all of your support. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a happy and peaceful 2024.

Back to normal deliveries and business as usual from 3rd January after a lovely break looking after Mum in Australia. Thank you all for your patience.

Another pile of coats has gone off today, this time to Galway SPCA. A dedicated supporter regularly pays for a delivery of coats to help keep the hounds warm and cosy and to help raise funds. Keep up the good work Emma O'Brien and team, you make such a difference.

As the weather starts changing I have been talking ‘kennel coats’ with Carol. Once again I am going to offer the WGW kennel dogs a special price. This will be limited to 3 colours, as below, Superstar, Heartthrob and Balmoral Blue and will be restricted to dogs who are not reserved or out on foster. The cost will be £26.00 for a double layer polar fleece Greytcoat with fleece and Velcro belt. (This is a saving of £6.00). Postage will be dependent on how many coats are ordered as I will try and secure a good price for each delivery.

If you prefer to order from the whole selection of colours the normal retail price will apply. www.greytcoats.co.uk/colours

Please remember I am a one man band and make your individual coat to order. All orders need to be in by 15th November 2023 as I will not be available for the whole of December. Normal service will be resumed from 4th January 2024.

To order, please establish the size you need from the kennels for a particular dog, choose your colour and then contact me via the contact page on my website. I will need to know size and colour choice and that you are buying for a kennel hound. I will then invoice you via PayPal for the amount including postage. https://www.greytcoats.co.uk/contact-us/

A Unique opportunity to buy one of my stunning Harris Tweed coats, but ready made. The coat has not been worn as unfortunately the beautiful Rocco has sadly passed over to Rainbow Bridge. Wimbledon Greyhound Welfare are staging an auction to raise funds for the charity and if you go onto their FB page you will be able to leave a bid.

Rocco’s Harris Tweed coat that is being auctioned was made to measure for him but will fit a 29” to 31” dog. I can adjust the belt position or length of the belt if it is too big for your hound. The colour is as below, a Blue black Barleycorn Harrris Tweed with black fleece lining. The cost price for a similar made to measure coat is £185. Each coat takes me over 10 hours to make and you will not be disappointed, the cost of the material alone is £60.00, so please bid generously for this beautiful coat. www.greytcoats.co.uk

ORDER BOOK CLOSED FOR 2022. With regret I am having to bring forward my last ordering dates for Christmas delivery. Following the announcement yesterday that Royal Mail have changed their last posting dates it makes it impossible to guarantee deliveries. I have been supplementing Royal Mail with DPD but they have now also suspended local, private customers and EVRI whose one day service has now changed to 15 working days. All orders in hand I will honour the postage that has been paid but upgrade them to first class. The private individual orders I will get off by the end of this week. The kennel orders, I am on top of and there are only 11 of the 50 odd left to do. I am planning to come up to the kennels to deliver the last 2 batches as I have another 10 here ready to send, but no other reliable option. (3 hour + round trip)

25/11/2022

Another 10 coats for the kennel hounds went off today, that is now over 30 this Autumn and a further 12 scheduled for next week. Within a couple of weeks all the hounds will have new coats to keep them warm through the winter months. Well done to anyone who contributed.

More coats on their way to the kennels thank you Jan MacDuff and Sheila Morris.
