Bit of an odd choice of software to run the site on, I have to say, but it seems to be working for you, and that's what matters. (A CMS based on a blog paradigm rather than a forum paradigm would have been more "normal". Not necessarily better, just more "normal". I may have a lot of strong opinions, but nobody has ever accused me of being normal and lived to tell the tale.)
I'm not really into the subject matter so far (which is an oblique way of saying that dogs and cats and other things I'm horribly allergic to don't take up a lot of my time or thinking space), but I think other people might be interested in some of the nuts-and-bolts (or fabric-and-fasteners) behind the coats and such. Then again, this might be the most commonplace thing possible and I just don't know about it, but from an absolute layman's perspective I'd imagine that fitting and adjusting the patterns might take a bit of thinking and, well, dabbling. Even though I don't spend a lot of time with them, I haven't been able to help noticing that dogs come in more shapes and sizes than, say, kids of the same age, so there's got to be a bit more to adapting a pattern than there would be for adjusting to a slightly longer than average arm, f'rinstance. Just a thought.
