I alter many baby cloths for my yorkies. The best place to get them is Yard Sales I can get 10 onsies for $1 and the little hoodies for .25. The hoodie Jackets that have the waist band is I will do one of two things.
1. I keep the zipper makes for easy on and off.
2. I will turn the waistband under and create a hem and then using very small 1/4 elastic and run that through the him to fit his waist so that it can't get wet during potting. A draw string can be used too but I don't like that as well.
3. This can be done with onsies too. Cut them off to make shirts, if the waist of the onsie is to big an will cause problems getting around I will run a small band of elastic through it to keep it up around them.
I have even bought infant dresses and altered them by placing darts around the hem to bring it in closer to the abdomen.
