| When can I buy clothes? :/ Hi guys! My girl is 7 months now at 3lbs and she's been holding that for about 1 month now. I've been putting off dolling her up and getting her clothes because I'm scared she'll outgrow them. Is now a safe time that I can purchase clothes for her? Do you think she'll grow much more? I still need to get her spayed so I'm assuming she'll grow more after the spay, is this usually size or just weight growth? Sorry for all the tedious questions! I appreciate some feedback thanks! |

| I wouldn't go too crazy buying clothes right now, a few things is fine though. If the clothes are a bit long and loose now they'll probably fit next year. My yorkie's birthday is in March, she'll be two this year. A lot of the clothes I bought last winter are too short on her now. She has some small dresses from petco, they still fit in width but they're a bit too short now, I'd buy her mediums. She's a bit over 7lbs. |

I haven't found clothsthat fit yet so I'm just waiting for them grow a little more before i try again. If you find smaller cloths let me know so i can get them some pretty cloths. ❤❤❤🐶🐶❤❤❤ |

They're going to grow pretty rapidly and should end up around 4-5lbs, so I wouldn't buy more than one or two outfits each. You could also cut up a sock if they need sweaters. | |

| I bought clothes right away and just got more when she got bigger. I wanted her used to them and then she got where she needed them to stay warm. I kept her first few pieces in her memory box. I like to look at them sometimes and see how tiny they are lol.

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | I would buy a few items. But don't spend a lot. She is going to get larger.

| Wow guys thanks for the responses! So I can assume she will probably outgrow anything I buy. So hard because I'm itching to shop haha but I'll be cautious for now! Also, for some of you wondering, I actually find a lot of xxs on etsy, I bought one so far and it fit my 3lber puppy fine.

| If you want to go the cheap way till she's fully grown, check out the DIY dog clothes on pinterest. There's a easy way to make a sweater from shirt sleeve and sock. Really cute too! https://www.pinterest.com/brumzoo/diy-dog-clothes/ |
