Wild
Things For Greys - Designer Apparel - Custom made in Las
Vegas, NV.
"I have always had the talent of sewing and had made things for my
greyhounds from time to time. One of my greyhounds, Allie Mae, was
diagnosed with skin cancer in 2000. Designing practical and wearable
garments for her was out of necessity. She had to be clothed to keep the
sun and elements away from her skin. Don't let the title fool you, I
also design special order garments for other breeds. Each garment is
handmade and designed by me. A little bit of my heart goes with every
piece of clothing that is purchased."

Sarah Regan Snavely, Fine Dog Art & Jewelry, "If you have looked at my
artwork, you can tell that sight hounds are my favorite subject. I do
many breeds, but I take special pleasure in the rare and unusual ones.
Dogs are my only subjects. My goal is to create pieces that reflect the
peculiar nature of dogs and their behavior (and sometimes you might see
something about humans too). I strive to be true to the breed standard
in each piece." |
