Doggy dress ups

Everyone knows that pets are the most fashionable accessories to have – but how much thought are you putting into your dog’s wardrobe? With enough time and money, it’s possible to find the perfect prints to have your puppy showing off this spring.

One of the most popular ways to dress a prized pooch is in items of licensed merchandise. Car brands, favourite footy teams and even musicians are all well-represented, if you look hard enough on merchandise websites or in large pet stores. Even cartoon characters and actors can be found in markets and online.

Designer prints and custom prints are on the up-and-up, and can be found through internet retailers. All of the prints you’re used to seeing on people can also be seen on puppies before spring turns to summer – argyle prints, bright colours, intriguing fabrics. These will set you back though, so make sure your dog is going to love it as much as you do!

If your heart’s set on one design and no other, but you can’t find it anywhere or it’s just out of your means, you could try creating it at home. Like anything, designs and how-to guides are abundant online, so it should be easy to find one that’s viable and practical.

At the end of the day, the possibilities really are endless. Be practical with what you buy though – make sure it’s the right size, the right price, and you can just throw it in the washing machine after a particularly long day at the park.
