Dog Onesies Are Not Only For Making A Fashion Statement

By Carol Edwards


Pet owners are a special breed, and are very well known for spending lots of money to ensure their pets have a wonderful life. Dog onesies could be looked at as an impractical expense considering most have a furry coat, but there are a lot of good reasons that they are very popular! They can certainly make a fashion statement, but they have a practical uses as well, especially in area that are colder in the winter.

Generally used for infant humans, these outfits are definitely gaining popularity for dressing up canine babies as well. They are great for places where the weather is colder. Most cover the entire torso, leaving the paws exposed, likely so that the animal can maintain grip on slippery surfaces. They make it easy to ensure dogs get the proper amount of exercise and are able to be outside and feeling comfortable no matter the weather conditions.

Often the lower area is also left open. This allows the dog to be able to do their business with ease, and is likely preferable for the owner as they would not need to stop and remove the outfit so that the dog could do their business unimpeded. Buttons or snaps are preferred over a zipper as the latter could get caught in the fur and cause pain. Also, the tail is often allowed to stick out the back of the material so that the dog is able to wag it.

Made of many types of material, there is certainly a garment for any occasion. A quick search will turn up all kinds of patterns that can be used to sew, knit or crochet an outfit for a canine of any size. There are also many online shops and brick and mortar pet stores that carry an abundance of styles.

Whether the dog has short fur or has their coat groomed to a shorter length, a onesie can help to keep them cosy when the weather is cold. It offers a warm layer, and can help keep any dog feel comfortable even when the temperature drops.

Of course, sometimes a fashion statement what the outfit is all about. With such popularity, it is certainly easy to find something that works for any taste or occasion. From simple to very detailed, light to heavyweight, there is no end to the options.

Not only for small or short haired breeds, these garments can also be worn by large dogs. They are especially good for breeds that might benefit from an extra layer of warmth like a greyhound. Any dog who is outside when the weather is cold can certainly benefit from wearing one as it can help to provide a layer of insulation and to keep the dog warm if their coat is not thick or warm enough. It is especially good for dogs that have a flat laying coat.

Keeping your dog comfortable in cool weather, as well as making a fashion statement, is easy with the right outfit. No dog should be without this essential wardrobe staple. With all the colours and styles available, there is certain to be one for every dog and every owner, no matter the breed.
