| Where to buy the really small stuff?? So I am going to pick my puppy up tonight and I know she is tiny. Where can I find a collar and a jacket to keep her warm that is small enough? |

| I special order all the stuff for my smaller ones. Walmart has some cute stuff now, and you can occasionally find tiny sizes there, I would try that. |

Donating YT 10K Club Member | I've seen many xxx-smalls at Walmarts...much more frequently than than the small size I need anyway. Collar wise...you may want to look at a break away collar for cats. They're much smaller than dogs and if it caught on something...it comes apart. Another clothes suggestion...cut the heel and toe off a sock, clip two arm holes...instant sweater. Congratulations on your new baby.

| When we first got Jacoby we couldn't find anything small enough for him, so I cut and sewed the stuff to fit him!

| I suggest a cat collar because they have bells on them and that way you can make sure where they are because sometimes they like to get right under your feet. Petsmart has some xxxsmall stuff too.

| petco has harnesses called lil pals that are the perfect size for tiny ones. Not a huge selection but they worked well with mine girls. As for clothing, I went to craft stores and bought sweaters in the doll/bear dept. they were for teddy bears and fit great. Here is a picture of Bella in a bear sweater for Halloween. She was still under 2lbs at this point. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...DSCN1168-1.jpg

| I would stay away from collars..One it's much safer with small dogs to use harness vests. you don't want anything around their neck..plus, someone on here just posted the other day, that a friend of theirs got a new puppy and had a collar on it, and the collar got caught in the crate on the latch or something, anyway, it killed the puppy... |

| You need to buy a harness. Collars do not work on Yorkies. Yorkies are just too small for collars.

YT Addict | We use a cat collar with tiny bells so we know where my babis is at all times... for walks we also had to purchase a cat harness b/c he's so tiny! Check out walmart or one of the pet chains...
