Sat, 11 Jul 2009 00:00:00 -0400

Dogs truly are man's (and woman's) best friend. They are an integral part of the family and a huge part of our lives. So, if you are a bit of a fashion diva yourself you'll almost certainly want your dog to be dressed likewise. This means one thing for your dog – Designer Dog Clothes! Some dogs may be a little reluctant the first time you attempt to turn him or her into a fashion diva. If your dog is one of these then you have to exercise a little patience and a little nous. If you want to start them on the road to becoming a fashion icon here are a few pointers to guide you on your way: 1) Start with a one-piece outfit that's fairly loose and easy to get on and off. 2) Don’t rush; Talk gently and soothingly to them whilst slowly putting the garment on them. Stay calm and your pup will too. If you try to rush and are rough the dog will resist and only think of the experience as a bad one, making it very difficult to persuade him to try again. **End Summary** Topics: designer]]> dog]]> coat]]> fashion]]> fun]]> function]]> coat]]> dress]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Anthony Staniforth provides designer dog clothes and accessories to the discerning dog owner.

Help Your Dog To Feel Good; Buy Him Something To Wear

Mon, 06 Jul 2009 00:00:00 -0400

There are several good functional reasons why an owner should think about dressing their dog in clothes. With regard to designer dog clothes there are some that may consider this "frivolous" so I'll be taking a look at that too. Firstly let’s look at the functional purpose that some dog clothes can serve; A lot of people say the dogs have their own coats and so do not need extra clothing. True!! They may have their own coats but a thick shaggy coat is no fun in hot,steamy weather and likewise a short haired coat is hardly ideal in mid winter in Alaska. For example a Chihuahua not only has short hair but an incredibly small body mass. Take your Chihuahua out for a walk in mid winter in Northern climes and tell me he doesn’t shiver and look miserable. Your little pal would be much happier in a snug warm coat, I can guarantee that! So, hopefully we’ve established that certain dogs, under certain condition actually NEED to be wearing an extra layer of protection. Frozen ground will make your doggy's feet feel like blocks of ice? His soft padded feet sticking to the icy pavement. Not nice! **End Summary** Topics: designer]]> dog]]> clothes]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Anthony Staniforth provides designer dog clothes and accessories to the discerning dog owner.

Let me start this article with a few cautionary words about how to select the perfect coat for a dog.In the last few years a lot of people talk of dogs having a "sixth sense" which enables them to relate to human emotions. Now I don't know whether this is the case or not. I do know for certain however that dogs certainly have a sixth sense when it comes to fashion.Yes they know what does and doesn't look good on the catwalk (or should that be dog walk)so for goodness sake get your four legged friend a decent designer dog coat! Why Dog Coats Matter In a world rife with variety in every sector of life, dog coats are no exception. There are a myriad of different types of dog coat. You have the good old fashion all in one dog coat, the city dog coat, the arsenal dog coat and the all weather dog coat. There are now thankfully many designer dog coats available on the market. Whereas in the old days, you had to clothe your canine in mainly unexciting and uninspired fare, today is truly a different era. **End Summary** Topics: designer]]> dog]]> coat]]> fashion]]> fun]]> function]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Anthony Staniforth provides designer dog clothes and accessories to the dog owner who loves his or her dog.
