Why Whippets and Italian Greyhounds Need Fleece Pyjamas
It’s late at night, the house is quiet, and your whippet is curled up on the sofa. You’ve tucked them under a blanket before bed, but a few hours later they wake up, stretch their long legs, wander off for a drink, and then plop back down on top of the covers instead of underneath them. The temperature has dropped, and suddenly your elegant hound — with their fine skin and short coat — is shivering in the dark.
This scene is familiar to so many sighthound owners. Whippets and Italian Greyhounds are beautiful, sensitive breeds, but they feel the cold more than most dogs. Their slender build and lack of body fat mean that even indoors, they can struggle to stay warm.
Cold Days Home Alone
The same story plays out during the day. You head off to work, leaving your dog comfortable in the morning warmth. But by the afternoon, the heating is turned down, and the temperature inside the house begins to fall. Your hound, left alone, may spend hours curled up shivering on a cool floor or sofa, with no way to pull the blanket back over themselves.
Pyjamas solve this problem. Just like a wearable blanket, they keep your dog cosy whether you’re home or away. You can leave the house knowing they’ll stay snug until you return.
Rising Energy Costs
And then there’s the reality we’re all facing — gas and electricity prices are at an all-time high. Many of us can’t justify leaving the heating on through the night or while we’re out. Pyjamas offer a simple, affordable way to keep your hound warm without having to heat the entire house. A small change that can save on bills, while giving your dog the comfort they deserve.
Handmade Comfort
That’s why we make fleece pyjamas designed specifically for sighthounds. Standard dog clothing doesn’t fit their shape, but our handmade designs cover the deep chest, slim waist, and long back perfectly. Soft polar fleece adds warmth without bulk, and the extended neck design helps stop heat escaping. Lightweight, cosy, and easy to wash — they’re made for everyday use.
A Better Night’s Sleep (For You Both)
When your dog is comfortable, you are too. No more worrying about whether they’re cold when you’re not home. No more waking up in the night because they’ve wriggled out from under the blanket. Pyjamas mean everyone gets to rest easy.
✨ Explore our collection of handmade fleece pyjamas for whippets and Italian Greyhounds — crafted in Scotland, shipped worldwide, and designed to keep your hound warm day and night.
Would you like me to polish this into a slightly more emotional “customer story” style (almost like a testimonial from a whippet owner), or keep it as a general narrative like this one?
