Welcome

Cottage Hound Designs, the one stop for all your Greyhound and Whippet needs. Here you can custom  design, your dog’s coat, rain coat, jammies, and sweatshirts, to suit your needs . We also carry a specialty line of oriental brocade coats, dressy corduroy coats, tripod coats and donation dog silks. The Greyhound Chifferobe and Whippet Closet contain items that are ready to ship.

Our first Greyhound walked through our door and into our hearts in 1997. Since that time, we’ve fallen in love with these gentle dogs and their smaller cousins, the Whippets. With my husbands support and encouragement, I started sewing for our own dogs and in 2000 officially opened my business. Over time, I’ve expanded my designer line to include Whippets and recently, a limited line of jammies and snuggle sacks, for Italian Greyhounds.  Sewing for the dogs, also provides me with the means to donate to various adoption efforts.

When shopping at The Cottage, you can be assured that each item is sewn, by myself. Using quality fabrics, attention is given to the smallest details, that will make your pup look their very best, while being warm & comfortable. When possible, all seams are first basted, then serged, to prevent fabric raveling, and topstitched for a crisp appearance. Matching fabric tabs are added to coats with the T-strap design. Some are held together with Velcro, others have adjustable sliders and 2 piece buckles. All two layer coat styles are constructed in such a way, that the seams are on the inside, between the layers. This method is time consuming, but well worth the effort, as it produces a designer product at an affordable price. A variety of trims, laces, buttons & closures are available, to accent your dog’s coat, so it is unique as well as practical. Want something different that isn’t shown on the website? Just ask, am always happy to adjust my designs to accommodate your needs. "Your Dogs Comfort Is Our Business!"

Cottage Hound Designs is proud to announce our working relationship with 2 Hound Designs. They can match many of the fabrics I use for my coats. Original coat designs, with matching collars, will make your pup the envy of all the other hounds!

Thank you for stopping by “The Cottage”

Donations to Group Events/Fundraisers

Due to the volume of requests for donations, I've had to make changes to my policies, as I can't fill them all. If you'd like your group to be considered for a donation, you will need to Snail Mail me, 2 months prior to your event/fundraiser. Requests should be on Group Letterhead and contain the following information: Group Name, Address, 501C3#, Directors Name, Website Address and the reason for the request, and the date of the event. Snail Mailing a request will not automatically mean, that a donation will be forthcoming, but I will fill those that I am able to, each month. E-Mail requests, will not be considered.
