Your clothes are adorable and the sale prices are what I would spend. I think I would dress Toby more often if I was sure he wouldn't potty on himself but so much of the clothing made for male dogs puts the clothes too close to their "manhood."

When you say high in the front, does that mean cut the shirt higher on the chest

Please let me know.

Yes, that's exactly what I mean. Every time I pick out a cute little sweatshirt for Thor, I check the front, and I know he'll pee all over it. it's also a problem with raincoats.

This is a little more random, but I'd also love a really high quality collar and tie/bow tie, maybe with the tie going down the back. The ones I've seen look a little flimsy.

I bet you could get some ideas by checking out men's fashion. Like if you look at button-down shirts for going out at night, there are a lot of different, masculine patterns. I bet those would work great for a boy dog shirt!

I checked out your site, and I think the pants with suspenders are totally cute. Are you thinking of expanding that line by any chance???

I would like to have more clothes for Thor. Tough looking sweatshirts with skulls or cammo are fun... no glitter... maybe a cartoon bone or fire hydrant on the back.

Polo shirts are cute, and Thor has a cute little Hawaiian shirt I love.

I'll try to think of some stuff specifically, but my main impression when shopping for Thor is that all the boy clothes look like they are made for people who really want girl yorkies, but are stuck with boys. They are a little frou frou, I'm saying.

But again, if you do standard clothes cut high in the front, that will be hee-youge!

I like pj's, t-shirts, hoodies, and jumpers (like the hoodie and sweatpants attached.) QuickSilver has ALOT of great ideas, I'm with her also!

That's pretty much what I'd like to see for my little boy. There is one thing in particular I've been wanting for Kaji. A nice white dress shirt with the buttons down the front instead of the back. I already made him a few ties.

I noticed in the OPs line, she had a denim jacket that was cut unusually high in the front. Without the flowers it would be perfect for a boy.

Sebastian wears Hawaiian shirts, tank tops, polo shirts! Sorry if they are blurry. :-(

Yes, I'd LOVE a nice dress shirt! My preference is buttons down the back, but either way works.

I'm actually thinking of pairing a white dress shirt with this little suit type vest my mom found. If the buttons are down the front, I can put a tie over it, and it would look like he's dressed like a proper young man!!!

I have the tie, and wouldn't mind a replacement vest since the one I have is cheaply made.

I dress my boy. I dress him more than my girls haha. He loves clothes, isn't that funny haha. I normally put him in tshirts (long ones cuz I like them to cover his bellyband) and hoodies. Winter time he wears sweatshirts and jammies. He loves his clothes!!!

CouversMom · 08-17-2010, 01:57 PM

I agree with everyone else about needing higher cut shirts and hoodies... I have several sweaters for my male that are just too long an he pees on them so I don't let him wear them.

I like the macho style for my little guy

I have to dress him like a boy so no one confuses him for a girl with his top knot

I'm looking for a Giants jersey for my little guy.

nana911 · 08-19-2010, 09:59 AM

Not only does the OP have a great site, cute clothes and great prices, but the shipping was really fast. Great vendor!!!

Thanks!

Moe is the best dressed yorkie in town. He has sports shirts in solids or stripes in almost all the cute colors. He also has sailor tops, hoodies, raincoats, and some message shirts. He also has chucks, camouflage boots, sandals, and a pair of jelly rainboots.
I dress him in the color of what I am wearing for that day.This includes his hair ribbons, collar, and shirt.The people in the office would know more or less what color I am wearing when they see Moe.

Pet clothes are quite abundant here in Manila and they are quite affordable. T-shirt tops, sportshirts, and panties would normally cost P100 or Usd 2.25. Cute message shirts in the pet specialty shops in malls would be about P200 or Usd 4.50.
