V-Naught
Quality Handcrafted Greyhound Products Since 2004

Welcome to V-Naught

I love sewing for my Greyhounds. In the summer of 2004, I made portable beds for them. Later, when the cold, autumn winds started to blow, I made shirts to keep them warm during our our fall walks. The shirts were especially nice to have during the winter when the temperatures dropped both outside and in our home. Since then, I have made hundreds more shirts and beds, plus coats, blankets, collars, and leashes.

I especially enjoy creating new items, working on new ideas, and using interesting fabrics. Since I buy fabrics in small quantities, I don't mass-marketing my designs. At most, I make four to six of each fabric choice. This allows me to be more creative, and the dogs who wear or use my designs have something unique.

Since I buy in small quantities, designs and fabrics disappear quickly. If you're interested in purchasing one of my items and can't make it to one of the events listed here, contact me and, let me know what you would like.

Contact information for placing special orders can be found at the bottom of this page.

Thank you,

Mary

A Couple Notes About My Greyhound Shirts

Fleece: Sorry, I don't use fleece. I spend more money, and your dog get a better shirt.

Legged Shirts: Legged shirts are cute, but I designed my shirts so that male dogs won't soil them. Let's face it, who really needs all that extra laundry?

My Greyhound Family

Ruby, my first Greyhound, came to me in February 1998. On September 11, 2007, she passed away. All my Greyhounds are getting older, and I want to spend as much time with them as possible, which is the why I decided to keep V-Naught simple.
