Dog Apparel - Walk Your Dog With Style

By Beverly Maniago

Dog fashion is definitely in, especially when you have a wide variety of choices. The different kinds of dog apparel don't only provide comfort and protection to your pooch, but will also allow him to transform what could be a simple pathway into his own personal runway.

Take Your Pick

There are dresses, singlets, hoodies and jackets. Allow your pooch to walk in great style with the following choices of dog apparel:

1. Singlet Tops. Tunic tees are perfect for the lady dogs, those who are not yet very old but would be more than glad to show off her developing woman-like curves. They usually come with slits to expose those beautiful legs and ruffled edges to soften the entire look. There are also several prints that you can choose from, such as floral and checkered, if you want them to be more contemporary. You can also stick with plan ones, if you don't like to be so flamboyant about them. The neckline can either be beaded or ruffled.

2. Knitted dog clothes. Are you tired of the same and already boring look of sewn dog clothes? Why not opt for the knitted ones instead? These pieces of clothes are all hand made, so you know the makers have taken the time to pay attention to detail. Knits are also strong fabrics. If they are made properly, they will last for a very long time. The tiny holes they produce will also allow enough ventilation to your dog, especially during the summer.

Knitted clothes can include sweaters, shirts, and, of course, dresses. If you want to add your own personal touch to them, you can buy the plain ones, and just attach some beads and sequins. If you know how to knit, there are a lot of patterns that you can purchase from pet and crafts stores, or you can download from the Internet.

3. Sport shirts. If you're off to the playing field, make sure that your mutt's with you. After all, his "cheers" will be highly welcomed by your team. Your choice of sports shirts will depend on what sport you like. Nevertheless, you're assured that they are made of lighter materials, so the dogs will remain cool at all times. They also provide proper ventilation. Moreover, to make the shirt his own, you can have his name etched on the shirt' back, along with his designated number, which can just be his birthday.

4. English jackets. English jackets will never fail to make your pooch look cosmopolitan and classy, not to mention that it gets the cold out of their body. The girls can definitely pair it with A-line skirts, while the men can don it along with a beret.

5. Cool and multi-colored bandanas. Bandanas will provide comfort to your dog's head during summer heat, as well as make a very excellent accessory. You can also tie the small ones around his foot to make a very unique leg accessory or anklet. Bandanas are real cheap, so you can definitely buy a lot of them with various prints.
