While some people may find the idea of domestic pets dressed up in
handmade clothing annoying, I fully embrace it. If there were a show on TV
that was simply a sideshow of different photos of dogs in fun
sweaters, I would not only watch it, but hold Dog Sweater Viewing
Parties and make little Dachshund shaped sandwiches with the crusts cut
off.
There is just something about little, snuggly dogs in ridiculous
clothes that makes me laugh and feel all warm and gushy inside. I
suppose this is how most people feel when they see adorable babies
dressed as flowers and put in overly sized gardening pots.
It's the middle of the week, and that glorious Saturday morning
lie-in seems so far away. So, soothe your mid-week aches and pains with
seven photos of the cutest fucking dog sweaters you've ever seen. Trust
me, dogs in sweaters are the Valium.
The Custom For YOU Dog/Cat Hoodie
Take the time to contact Etsy seller JillHannah and she will custom make you a killer hoodie that's "just as unique as your pet" for only $30! You can choose your own yarn for your hoodie, as well as a matching/contrasting zipper and hoodie tie. Best part? It's machine washable, so you don't have to care about your pup doing that weird "rolling around in the grass like a psycho" thing while wearing their new sweater.
The Reversible Dog Coat, Small Hound Hoodie
This ridiculously cute hoodie/coat will cost you about $45, but is both reversible and eco-friendly! The hood is made from recycled plastic and it wraps around your little dog's chest with a bit of velcro, so you don't have to worry about silly ties getting tangled up.
The Argyle Fleece Chihuahua Hooded Sweatshirt
Costing only $10, this hooded sweatshirt just kills me. Can you imagine a little chihuahua pup all dressed up in this! How cozy! Each design is one of a kind and while originally designed for chihuahuas, any small breed will happily fit into this cute little sweatshirt.
The Bad To The Bone Biker/Pirate Sweater
If you want your canine pal to gain a bit more street cred with the other dogs on the block, this sweater will either cause him to be laughed at or get the respect he deserves. This sleeveless, crew neck sweater can be made for any size dog, as long as they are no bigger than 20lbs. Plus, this badass sweater is only $20 and is machine washable, as well! Yay!
The Winters Luxury Natural Tweed Pure Wool Dog Sweater
Sophisticated and charming, this little tweed doggy sweater reminds me of something straight out of JCrew. I imagine whatever dog would wear this probably owns a yacht, enjoys reading cooking magazines over a dry cappuccinos every Sunday morning and was trained to use a toilet. While at $35 it costs about as much as a human sweater, it's made from 100% New Zealand wool and is the perfect pullover for your dog this winter.
The Cha-Cha Dog Pattern For Crochet
While, clearly, the chihuahua in this photo is royally pissed off to be wearing such a contraption, I can't help but love it. It's cheesy, it's ridiculous and would look wildly entertaining on any dog. While this is technically just the crochet pattern for you to make your own, it's still one of the best I've found! (Plus, it's only $5!)
The Buzzy Bumble Pure Wool Sweater
This is my absolute favorite. While it may just be the dog I love so much, I just can't get over the freakin' bee outfit. This basic sweater is made out of 100% New Zealand wool and costs about $35! (Dog, unfortunately, not included.) (Nope. Not even the stuffed one.)
