| Clothes for a tiny puppy I am getting my yorkie puppy, Jasmine in five weeks time and she will be seven weeks old. I want to get a sweater and coat for her before she comes home as it is quite cold where I live (by the sea, Dublin, Ireland). This is my first yorkie, I have had a cairn terrier and a westie in the past so I'm unsure about what size I should order for her. I know that whatever I get she will probably grow out of it very quickly but as it will be around Christmas when she comes home it will make ordering anything online difficult and slow. Advice desperatley needed! Thanks Muriosa |

| Do you know how much she weighs now? A lot of people use socks for their tiny babies they cut little arm holes in the stretchy part of the sock. They look shockingly cute. Also a couple of the members here have websites that sell super tiny clothes.

| My yorkie right now is 12 weeks old and she weighs 1.8 lbs and she is in anywhere from an xxx small to a xx small. So I guess it depends on the brand of clothing. Just check the measurements of your dog when ordering. Barkindogclothes.com makes custom clothing for cheap.

| Your best bet is to get a coat custom made for her since she is so tiny. Several people on YT can make clothes in that size for you. Me, ChloeandJ, Joy can make coats and a couple people on here also make sweaters. I also may have a few of my sweaters on my website that may come small enough to fit her. Let me know if you are interested and I can tell you which ones.

| Thanks for all the advice. I thought I was getting Jasmine in five weeks but actually got her last night! My boyfriend had told me the later date so it would be a surprise. She is nine weeks old and in tiny and is currently wearing a sock as suggested until I can get her a jumper and a coat. I'm going to post pics |
