Hilarity is often abound in these chihuahua fashion shows!

Puppy Coats for Young Dogs

Puppy coats help keep little dogs warm at night and when living in cooler places. As owners, we get these little coats for our little puppies to make them more comfortable and warm, and sometimes to give them a bit of doggie fashion flair. These little coats for dogs counteract the tendency that chihuahuas and other little dogs have to cool off quickly when not being active and moving around.

If you’ve ever had a smaller dog like a chihuahua, then you know how much little dogs shiver and shake when they’re not running around. Especially at night, you’ll notice how much chihuahuas and other little dogs love to burrow under the covers to try to keep warm with you:

And that’s exactly what chihuahua clothes and cheap and cute puppy coats are for: keeping your little dog warm. They’re little mini coats for puppies, typically made out of similar materials an in a comparable fashion to people coats, and you dress your little dog in them and they help your pooch out by keeping him a lot more warm and comfy.

There are actually some very cool, fashionable styles of these dog coats out there, if you look around in your local pet store or online through a dog coat store. After Paris Hilton set the chihuahua clothes fashion world on fire with her Tinkerbell, a lot of different styles dog clothing came flooding into the market, and a huge selection of puppy coats are now available.

Now, not every puppy coat is made the same: some are definitely more cool and funky and fashionable than others, and some are made to higher quality standards than others. God knows how many different little coats for puppies I’ve tried out that have basically fallen apart with just a couple of weeks of wear. But the upside is that this has allowed me the opportunity to test out quite a few different brands of puppy coats and find some really adorable ones that remain a staple in my chihuahuas’ clothes selection to this day.

Of all the places I’ve bought little coats for puppies, I’ve find the Chihuahua Shop to be the best. They seem to only carry the higher quality brands that won’t fall apart after just a couple weeks of wear.

Chihuahua Booties

Chihuahua booties keep your chihuahua’s paws clean when walking and protect the pads from wearing out when walking a lot on rough surfaces like concrete. There are many styles of these boots, but I would only recommend a few of the ones I have tried out on my chihuahuas: in my experience, the “Pawz” brand booties are one of the few brands that actually stay on your dog’s feet properly for an extended period of time and can actually be used for walking and more than just lying around in the house! Here’s what they look like:


These chihuahua boots are straightforward: they don’t have any zippers or straps that can become undone. Instead, you just slip these on your chihuahua’s feet and you’re ready to roll. If you’ve ever tried out booties for dogs before that have the zippers and straps, you’ll know that they usually become undone and it’s only a matter of time before they fall off your little dog’s feet, and it’s not fun when you have keep checking your chihuahua to make sure her little booties are still on her paws! So I highly recommend the chihuahua booties that just slip on and hold by being a tight fit: they work best in my experience, with all of the dog boots shoes I’ve ever used on my own chihuahuas.

Owners of little dogs mostly buy shoes and chihuahua booties for their smaller dogs to give them enhanced comfort when walking: the doggy boots keep their chihuahua’s pads insulated from the scorching heat of hot sidewalks when walking in the summer and the freezing cold of the snow and ice in the winter. So booties for chihuahuas help keep your chihuahua more comfortable when walking on harsh surfaces like this, and they also keep your chihuahua’s little feet safe from things like lawn fertilizers and other chemicals your little dog might encounter on an adventurous walk, like car oil on the road, etc. The other side of dog booties is that they also make your chihuahua look absolutely adorable when you combine them with chihuahua clothes and make them a part of an overall chihuahua look you dress you small dog up in.

So where do you find them? If you’ve got a chihuahua and you’re looking for good dog shoes boots, you can go down to your local pet store and try them on there. Depending where you live, you may find a good selection at the local chihuahua clothing/pet stores. You can also find a wide variety of chihuahua booties online, but if you’re looking for the good Pawz-brand ones like I recommend, then GW Little is the place to find them. GW also sells little chihuahua dog socks your little puppy can wear indoors, too, which can be cute if you’ve got a super fashionista thing going on with your chi and you want to take it all the way!

A pair of chihuahua booties keeps your chihuahua’s feet more comfortable better protected from the elements and clean and free of the dirt and grime of the city ground. Your cute little chihuahua won’t get any more cuts on her paws when you go for long walk in the city, and the booties will keep your chihuahua’s paws protected from branches and other little sharp thorns and debris on the ground if you take your chihuahua on more of a nature walk.

Dog Coats and Jackets Help Keep Your Dog Warm and Comfortable

If you live in a place where a lot of people own smaller dogs, you’re surely seeing a lot of dog coats and jackets these days on those small dogs. I take my dogs for a quite a few walks throughout the week, and on cooler days, I pass by a lot of owners with chihuahuas and other little dogs wearing puppy coats. The purpose of these coats for dogs is of course to keep your little dog warm in cooler climates, as smaller dogs tend to cool down easier and shiver more than bigger dogs. If you have a chihuahua for example, it helps to dress her up in clothes for chihuahuas, to compensate for her body’s tendency to shed heat a lot faster than other dogs.

I used to think this whole dog clothing thing was ridiculous, but I’ve changed my mind about this ever since I first became joint-owner of my friend’s chihuahua, and now I’m an advocate of chihuahua clothes because I see how much more comfortable they make my little dogs, allowing my little snuggle bugs to actually enjoy their walks when it’s cold out, instead being stuck in an uncomfortable, non-stop shiver-fest!

Living in Canada last year with my chihuahuas, I bought and tested out quite a few different clothes for my little dogs in the span of about six months. I had doggy snowsuits, puppy sweaters, and the entire warm end of the dog fashion industry that I was dressing up my little dogs with. One of the most useful chihuahua clothes I came across for my little female chi was this dog waterproof coat that would keep her dry whenever it was either raining or snowing. Canada is a cold place, and you can’t really afford to get wet when you’re outside and it’s freezing out! So when it was snowing, this little dog raincoat would keep the flakes off my chihuahua’s back and prevent them from melting on her and getting her wet; and in the spring and fall it would keep the rain off her back and keep her dry and warm on rainy days. This was one of the most useful dog coats and jackets I’ve ever had for my little Namaste, and I had her wear it almostbeige quilted gilet coats for dogs every day when the weather was lousy because it literally took her from a place of not really wanting to go out and walk when it was raining to almost feverishly jumping up on my lap whenever she’d sense that it was walk time–even when it was raining! This little doggy rain coat made a huge change in my chihuahua over the few months I had her wear it.

And of course in the winter, you have the little dog snowsuit to provide that extra warmth your little dog needs in the frigid cold. The snowsuits for dogs help combat the brutally cold weather you face in places with harsh winters, and if you couple them with four little dog boots for your pooch, your little dogs can actually enjoy walking in the winter time–something that is virtually impossible without the aid of these doggy coats and jackets if you’re living in a cooler climate. If you’re like me and you live in a cold place like Canada, then I really recommend you pick up a few dog jackets for winter weather if you have little dogs.

Dog Pyjamas: Cute Outfits That Help Dogs With Short Hair Stay Warm At Night

I’ll be honest: if someone had recommended I buy my dog a pair of pyjamas a couple of years ago, I would have thought they were on crack. Even today in the pet stores: “why on earth would my dog need a pair of dog pyjamas?!” many pet owners continue to exclaim when they first see them on the shelves in the dog clothing isle.

My bewilderment came down to the thing I had in common with these in the pet stores today: I had never looked after, owned, fostered, or HAD a chihuahua, or any small short hair dog for that matter!

Once you finally spend a bit of time with one of these little guys in your life, you quickly discover that they spend an inordinate amount of time shaking and shivering! And it gets a little hard to watch after a while; “that can’t be comfortable,” you think.

And it’s the worst for these little dogs at night, because it cools down even further and the dogs are often snoozing close to or actually on the floor–where all the coldest air resides–and so they curl themselves into a little ball and just try to huddle up and keep as warm as they can while also shivering their little buts off, often.

And that’s where these dog pyjamas come in: they keep your dog a lot more more at night so this doesn’t happen, basically. They also happen to make your dog look ridiculously cute 😉

I was first introduced to dog pajamas years ago: my friend had bought a pair of them for her little yorkie, and I’ll admit it: I laughed when I saw them. I just couldn’t see the reason for buying pyjamas for your dog–“they have a coat of hair after all, don’t they? They don’t wear little pairs of puppy pajamas in the wild!” So I gave my friend a hard time for dressing her little doggy in these flannel dog pants and the little dog night shirt. The whole idea of it seemed funny to me, even if that little dog did look insanely cute in those pyjamas….

The thing was, though, that up until that point, I had only ever owned and fostered bigger breeds of dogs: labradors, pit bulls, boxers, and a cocker spaniel. I had never had a need to dress any of my dogs up in doggie sweaters or any of those K-9 coats or anything like that. My dogs were just always seemed to be warm enough without any additional help from clothing during the day or at night from little pyjamas for dogs!

Fast forward a few years: I get into a relationship, and my new girlfriend has a chihuahua and a yorkie of her own, and they both shiver at night–especially the chihuahua.  I had never lived with little dogs before so I had never seen this, but now it made sense to me!  These little dogs actually do benefit from wearing their cute puppy pyjamas while they sleep.  Otherwise, they jump up on the bed and try to burrow under the covers and snuggle as close as possible with me just to stay warm!  So it wasn’t long after meeting my girlfriend that I was introduced full-time to the vast world of chihuahua clothes and all these different little coats and outfits for dogs!

There were sweaters and coats, costumes, and yes: even little dog pyjamas that they wore at night.  I still find it a little funny, but now my little snuggle bugs come running over to me whenever I pick up a pair of clothes for chihuahuas in my house, practically begging for me to put them on them to make them more comfortable!  They love these little dog jumpers and puppy sweaters… all of it!  They look so cute all dressed up in their fashionable night pajamas for dogs!

Anyway, enough of my story.  I’m sure you know what I mean when I say that little dogs look adorable in their dog pyjamas.  I still find it a little funny and have to laugh sometimes when I see my little doggies running around the corner with their little chihuahua pajamas on, but I know it keeps them warmer and more comfortable at night, which is all I really care about.  I’ve built up quite a collection of these little night clothes for my little adopted pooches and I’ve tried a lot of different retailers both offline and online when buying dog pyjamas for my chihuahua and my other little dogs, but my favorite lately has been this store here: GW Little.  If you’re looking for a good pair of pyjamas for your little dog, click that link and it will take you to their selection, and you’ll find some of the best ones available.  I hope that’s helpful, I’ll talk to you again soon! -Michelle
