Gifting clothes to your near ones is a difficult task. We all have stories to tell, my grand mother knew how to stretch a dollar. Clothes for her grandkids were always purchased 3 or 4 sizes too big so we could "grow into them". So, we endured our baggy clothes, with the sleeves and pant legs rolled up, until we were finally big enough to wear them with dignity. By which time they were ready for donation. If you must gift clothes this season, there's one giftee on your list who's sure to look great in any outfit you buy him. He'll wear your gift with pride and appreciation; head held high and tail wagging.



You are guessing right it's your dog or your best friend's dog. Dog's love any kind of attention from you. So, Spike will show off his outfit - whether it's cute or ridiculous - as soon as he sees how happy it makes his owner. Spot will eat up all that extra attention he gets from strangers. And Butch might even want to style for the camera.

Shopping clothes for dog is just like shopping clothes for babies. Unless you're going for practicality, cuteness is what counts. Nowadays most dog wearing clothes looks pretty darned cute. There is an entire range of from winter sweaters to football jerseys and summer tees available in the market. You can get a set of sweet sleep pajamas for bedtime or a terry robe for after bath. There's even an entire line of Happy tails Cowboy or Cowgirl costume for dogs, complete with leather cap and collar. Dog costumes made for parties and holidays are just too cute for words

Also you can choose from different accessories available, these include a designer dog collar and maybe a cool pair of sunglasses, they make them just for dogs. Also on the list are Dog necklaces and Dog hats. Making the baby look silly might be a no-no, but its fun when it comes to dressing up a dog. There are some really creative doggie costumes out there that are good for a chuckle or two. There are really only a couple of rules you'll need to keep in mind when shopping for dog clothes:

One is if the dog is an avid chewer, you should avoid buying him anything tempting. Shiny buttons, fringe, and feathers are examples that come to mind. An object that can easily be chewed off and swallowed is a choking hazard and can get stuck in the dog's digestive tract. The second is that any dog, no matter how tolerant, will be more comfortable wearing clothes that fit. Proper fit typically requires measuring from the dog's collar to the base of her tail for length. Most garments' girth can be adjusted with Velcro tabs, but could still be an issue with a barrel-chested breed such as a bulldog. Measurements are typically in inches.

If you're shopping for your own dog, you're all set. But if you're buying clothes for someone else's dog, then I've got a few more tips to share with you. Surveys conducted on the subject of gift preferences of men and women have shown that men prefer gifts that are more playful or practical. So, if the dog's owner is male this might translate into a doggie Happy tails , a funny costume, or a dog sweater. Women, on the other hand, prefer gifts that are beautiful, memorable, and personal. It shouldn't be hard to find an item of clothing for a woman's dog that's either beautiful or memorable or both, and it will of course be personal!
