Okay I have to admit that one of the greatest things about having small dogs is the ability to dress them up. Though I do occasionally dress up the big girls for Halloween, I really don’t dare do it at any other time. So I thought I would share a few of my favorite outfits. These outfits are normally only worn at home, rarely in public, it’s almost like a guilty pleasure. I can dress them up, but people don’t really know how Shih Tzu crazy I am…. until now!! Thanks again to my little girl Katie for being such a great little model!
We are so happy to be participating in this months A to Z Challenge!
Once again we are joining SlimDoggy in their Pet Blog Hop for the A to Z Challenge!

She is so adorable all dressed up! That is a fun thing about having small dogs….I don’t think they really make many clothes for really big dogs, do they? Mine don’t care much for it anyway, they barely put up with having a bandana put on!

Big dogs don’t look the same in clothes, I can only get stuff big enough for a few of them during Halloween!! Kyra has a squirrel outfit she gets to where every year!! lol

My Shih Tzu hates being dressed up! But personally, I don’t agree with dressing dogs up unless it’s beneficial to the dog! 🙂
I must say though, Katie looks super cute as a pumpkin!
Much love,
Jessica, Charlie Boy, Roman and Brooke xxxx

They are usually only dressed up for pictures or special events. And PJ’s when it gets too cold at night 🙂 It’s too hot where I live to have them dressed up all the time, that would be crazy and cruel.

Sooo jealous for your bride dress- can I borrow it for my big day?

It’s pretty huh? … and to think I found it at HomeGoods which is a discount type store here in the US.

We definitely loved dogs dressed up! Thankfully both of ours tolerate it, even Kid the cat does. But oh my gosh, Katie is so precious in those outfits. The Geisha is over-the-top-amazing – I adore the fabric, and color!! (I have some fabric kind of like that, might be attempting a soft collar using it or something).
Terrific post, and great use of the letter M!!

Thanks so much!! I love dressing them up for pictures… normally they will only wear pj’s when it is cold in the winter, and raincoats. But just to let you know, I bought a rockin little dress for Riley for BlogPaws Awards night!!

I can only get away with hats or bandanas on my big guys…maybe a t-shirt. Katie as a pumpkin is adorable.

Thanks, Katie is Crazy… the other two photos were taken outside and she wasn’t too keen about being dressed up when it was 85 out…. She was much happier as a pumpkin inside the house!! I think hats on big dogs is super cute!!
