Checked those links out T but they are all American.  I would be quite interested in purchasing one from a UK site!

:D  I have the same problem with Alfie as he trips up on his ears. I made him a snood out of camouflage material, hoping no one would notice :mrgreen:  but I forgot to take it with me to a show on Saturday, it was in an equestrian centre which was wet sand,  :roll: I kept him dry in his crate and when we were ready to go in the ring he put nose to the floor to pick up all the smells and ended up with half a ton of sand in his ears :roll: I had great fun trying to brush it out as I'm trying to make him stand. (The things we do!!!) :D  :D                    
Alfie, and Jay J. together over the Rainbow Bridge. Always in our hearts but dreadfully missed.

As Torie says, they are handy all year round.
Otis 8)  has a dark blue one so it's fairly inconspicuous :wink:
I bought it at a London Cocker Show one time and they were going like hot cakes, so if anyone is handy with a sewing machine...............

Thanks Emma for that information - I will definitely order one for my Gem as she has extremely long thick ears which are constantly getting smelly!!

If you are ordering snoods, check what material they are made of. I ordered one a while ago & when it came it was made of the thinnest cotton material you could find & the elastic was too baggy - it was not a success :wink:

Good point Jane!  I will check because it will need to be fairly heavy duty for obvious reasons.  
Thanks to luvylady for the other website.

 snoods cute colla's and leads:D


From what I have seen on the Hub International stand, the snoods are usually the sparkly, lurexy :?: , can spot you a mile off American Cocker type  :? Best to give them a ring & check before ordering to save embarassment  :oops:

Hi Gilly and thanks for your information.  I've now decided to wait until I go to Crufts so that I can see what I am buying (don't think waiting another couple of months will matter really!).  Butty looks really great on your new avatar (very long ears I see!)

We found a nice dark blue, fleece, toggle-pull corded human snood in our winter woolies drawer that we forgot about!  Soooo, yep we tried it on Charlie-Spud and it fit him just right ... but it only lasted a couple of minutes as he pulled it off!  :roll:  
SO ... we then took him out for his walk, waited at the park gate, put it on him then let him off the lead into the open area ... and .... he ran around, played fetch, sniffed for England, found the puddles, the mud and found the other dog pooh!  :(  BUT had clean ears!!!!  Yeahhhay!!  He didn't even seem bothered about his street cred' as he happily ran up to some guys playing football to show off!!!!  :D  well look at their football anyway!  :wink:
Great post & replies guys!                    
Charlie-Spud 'ere, oh and this little fella Frisbee!
