Pet Clothes

No doubt every one of our four-legged furry friends is built differently.  Any one of them from two tiny Chihuahuas to two Weimereimers are different and getting dog clothes to fit takes just a few minutes and a simple measuring tape.  Everyone knows that a ruler won’t work at all.  One could maybe use a metal measuring tape but that is a little stiff.  The best way to measure your pet for the designer dog clothes is by using a cloth measuring tape.  If you don’t have a cloth measuring tape you could use a string and lay it on the ruler.  When you measure carefully you will make sure your dog clothes not only look great, but are also comfortable and safe for your furry friend.

Measuring is especially important if you have a Bulldog or a Boston Terrier.  Measure from the base of the tail up to the base of the neck where you would see the coat lie comfortably.  If your dog has a stout chest or a bit on the heavy side you may want to move up a size.  Same thing for the smaller breeds or the thinner breeds such a a Greyhound where you may want to go down a size.  You want the fur to lie comfortable under the dog sweater or dog jacket.

Another thing is to make sure that your male dog will be able to go to the mail box and do what he feels like doing after he sniffs out his spot.  You want a dog sweater or a dog coat that is comfortable for you pet so you don’t want it to tight to short to long or to loose.  If the dog clothes do not fit properly it could be a safety issue where he may trip on his dog jacket.  Always measure your dog properly for that great fit so you can get the dog clothes you and your dog will be sure to like.
