The "velcro" type closings are not very effective after a few wearings.

We really liked this "dog coat" for our puppy until it fell off while walking through the woods. Our puppy, Peanut, likes to run into the underbrush sniffing out whatever critter has been roaming our property. The coat got caught on a branch and fell off in the brush. After finally finding it and looking it over well, we discovered the velcro-type closings had accumulated a lot of dog hair and just were not effective enough anymore to keep the coat on. Dog hair is bound to get caught in the fibers of the velcro-style closures! I came up with a fix: sewed on twill tape and parachute-type buckles - one on the neck and one on the underbelly and we have not experienced another issue. So to the seller: I think adding this -- or changing the closures from velcro-type to buckles -- would be a huge improvement!! We would have given this product a full 5 stars and a high recommendation if it wasn't for that!
