There are those who may scoff at the idea of buying designer dog clothing for their dogs. They may think dog’s don’t require clothing because nature has already provided them a coat of fur. Well, while it is true that dogs have fur to protect them, that doesn’t mean designer dog clothing is a wasteful investemnt for your pet. It provides style while protecting the dog from the harsh elements, those times when it gets below zero ....ffffffffrrrrezzzing!
Consider a popular item of designer dog clothing…the doggy sweater. Sure, if it’s Christmas-time, an appropriately-themed red sweater will make your dog stand out. But there is a practical side to this idea, especially for short-haired dogs. With a sweater, the dog will keep warm even if there’s snow on the ground. And this is important because like humans, dogs can get frostbitten during the harsh winter months.
If you feel a
dog sweater isn’t enough to keep your furry friend warm, consider getting a coat… another popular piece of designer dog clothing.
Dog coats look just like traditional coats, except they are tailored for canine wear.
So, if you want your darling dog to feel like a canine diva, why not grace her with a coat made of fur? And for male dogs, there’s the
motorcycle leather jacket. There are also year-round dog coats that are designed for both genders, or for the more manly dog!
Now, what does a person do if they are on the other end of the spectrum… they want to dress up their dog for a special occasion, like maybe a wedding? In these instances, they will need to decide what type of designer dog clothing they will need. For female dogs, there is the option of getting a feminine doggy shirt, or even better, a doggy dress. The style of these dresses looks similar to kids’ dresses, though there are a few that sport spunkier designs.
For male dogs, there are
Hawaiian shirts, tuxedos and even military fatigues. You can also get denim overalls, which tend to be unisex in nature.
Sound interesting? Well, before you order designer dog clothing, you must measure your dog to make sure you get the right size. To do this, you will have to measure their neck and their chest. You can use a tape measure or a piece of yarn… just make sure that when everything is finished, the measurements are expressed in inches. Anyway, once you have your measurements, you will want to use a sizing chart to determine how big your dog’s clothes need to be. Most stores selling designer dog clothing will have these charts on hand.
