Dog Sweaters for Small Dogs: A Comparison of The Different Kinds

There are a lot of different types of dog sweaters for small dogs today and I just want to discuss them briefly here. If you have a chihuahua or a yorkie or a bichon frise or a maltese, or any other breed of small dog AND you live in a cooler climate, it’s almost certain that you own at least a few small dog sweaters. These smaller dogs tend to shed their body heat much quicker that bigger dog dog, and so having little sweaters for small dogs is usually necessary for keeping them comfortable when they’re hanging out with you in a cold room or when out on a walk with you in the cold. The Chihuahua Shop stocks numerous styles of chihuahua sweaters, and I’m going to touch briefly on each of them here, quickly, just so you can get an idea of what’s out there and make a more informed decision the next time you’re shopping for your precious little doggie 🙂

First off is the classic wool, knit sweaters for smaller dogs. These sweaters for smaller dogs are what you’d typically think of when you think of the word “sweater”–a knit, warm, thick sweater that insulates really well and usually comes with some sort of patter on it. These small breed dog sweaters come in a variety of patterns, and in terms of all the different types of sweaters for toy dogs, these are the warmest. The Argyle small dog sweater pictured above is a popular option with chihuahua owners.

You can find hoodies for your dog that you can customize with a personalized message, and you can purchase them with pre-designed patterns and messages that range from mildly humorous to outright hilarious.

A few years ago, I had never even seen a chihuahua. Now I own and foster my own, and I've become such a lover of chihuahua clothes that I've opened my own Chihuahua Shop! It's been a crazy journey, but I love dogs, and chihuahuas are my calling :)
