Things to Consider
- Always remember that you are buying a dress for your dog. Your
furry friend is someone who can easily get grimy or stinky. So, it
is smart to pick clothes that can easily be washed and do not
shrink. Polyester can be a safe option while choosing materials for
dog dresses.
- A dog dress can be very expensive, especially if it is made up of
good quality clothing. Thus, buying your puppy a ready-to-wear dress
can leave a hole in your pocket. Instead, try sewing some new
dresses with different patterns at home. Use floral patterns in
different colors and fabrics.
- It is important that you consider your dog's habits before you
buy a dress. Some dogs love to chew. See that the fabric of the
cloth doesn't have any toxic chemicals. It is also better to avoid
flamboyant buttons, jazzy stones or stick-ons on the dress.
- Instead of providing buttons, snaps and hooks in your dog's
clothes, it is always better to use self-sticking fabrics. They are
safer and can be easily fastened and adjusted. In this way, you
don't have to buy a new dress for your dog every time he loses or
gains some pounds.
- Always remember to check that a dog dress has a hole in the front
for a leash. There should be an additional slit for the tail if it
is a one-piece suit or a pair of dog pant or trousers. Keep this in
mind even while making a dog dress at home.
- Never pick a dog dress that is too large or too small. As there
is no standard size when it comes to dog dresses, it is always
better to measure your dog and compare it with the size mentioned in
the box. You can also try the outfit on your dog before buying it.
So, the next time you buy a new
dress; don't be surprised if your doggie growls or gets jealous. He/she
is surely expecting one for herself.
