Any chihuahua owner who enjoys chihuahua clothes and the whole pet couture world knows the joy of dressing up your chihuahua in the latest couture dog clothes from the dog clothing boutique. There’s just something about watching your little dog trot around in that cute dog fashion that sparks a special something in the heart and endears your dog to everyone around!

There are a few major labels in the pet couture world: Oscar Newman, Susan Lanci, Gucci, and One Lucky Dog Couture. These are some of the major labels when it comes to fancy dog clothes, that dog fashionistas tend to gravitate toward. There are many other brands of upscale couture for dogs out there, but those are just a few examples.

Well, there are as many reasons as there are dog owners who dress their pups in pet couture, but it usually comes down to the fact that we usually don’t like to be ordinary, do we? When you have a choice between wearing regular fashion that looks fine or clothing that grabs your attention with how good it looks, with the attention to detail that the designer had when making the piece, with its unique style and design… it’s not exactly a difficult decision!

With the heaps of pet clothing selling out there today, a lot of it starts to look generic and boring after a while. After you’ve seen a lot of dog clothing, it starts to feel like a lot of people are dressing their pets in the same outfits over and over again. And the idea of dressing up your pet in the same dog outfits that everyone else uses on their pets isn’t very inspiring.

And so it’s typically much more fun and interesting to get your paws on couture doggie clothes for you chihuahua and to dress her up in those, instead. When you have outfits for your little dogs that actually excite you when you look at them, that make you want to dress your little furball up in them, and that make you stare at them in amazement, the whole dog fashion fare is a lot more fun and enjoyable!

Dog Clothes For Dressing Up Your Dogs In Clothing

Dog clothes are everywhere today, and whether you’re into chihuahua dog clothes or you’re more a cute dog clothes shopper, it’s these stylish dog clothes that dog owners are flocking to today. My neighbors, and all the pet owners of the little beach town I live in today is going gaga when they shop dog clothes online, and I’m lucky enough to get to see all this chihuahua clothing and these funky dog clothes on their little pets all the time!

Dog clothing does have its detractors, though, and while I think chihuahua clothing is totally fabu and that dressing up your dog in the most fashion-tastic designer dog clothes can be a lot of fun and a very good thing, not everyone feels the same. There are people who completely scoff at the very notion of dog fashion, and believe it to be cruel to dress a dog in an extra layer of fur.

Dog Clothes – Is There A Downside?

I think we have to respect their doggie clothes opinion, because not all of use have seen dog dresses and dog coats used in the same way. I know I have personally seen small dogs wearing heavy, thick dog clothes in the middle of the searing summer, when they’re out in the summer sun and the heat is bearing down on their and their small dog clothes, and that’s not at all cool in my books.

I think this goes without saying, but in terms of dog outfits, you have to use common sense with these little dog clothes, and dog clothing for all breeds of pet dogs. If you’re going to shop for new dog clothing at the Chihuahua Shop, or wherever it is that you buy your toy dog clothes, then please please PLEASE make sure you clothe your dogs responsibly and that you’re not going to make them wear dog clothes out in the sun and cause them to suffer in the heat!

But if you’re like the VAST majority of dog owners who dresses up her dogs in dog fashion, and you have some basic sense about this 🙂 then you probably know what I mean when I say that dog clothes are just about the coolest thing ever when it comes to shopping for your dog. Small dog clothing lets you dress up your dog and give him or her the look of your choosing, and you can have so much dog fashion fun with that. Do I say have fun with dog clothes and enjoy the entire dog clothing experience!

Dog Boutiques That Sell Quality Chihuahua Clothes

In my travels as a chihuahua clothes enthusiast, I’ve come across many dog boutiques that sell small dog clothing that ranges from the designer pet fashion that costs thousands of dollars per outfit, to the bargain basement-type cheap chihuahua clothing shops that typically try to sell thinly woven, poorly made clothing for chihuahuas and yorkies and other small breeds that fall apart within a few weeks, in my experience.

At the Chihuahua Shop, I’ve worked to find a balance between these two types of small dogie boutique stores, and sell dog accessories that mimic the quality of the thousand-dollar outfits while costing a fraction of what they can run for. In other words, our chihuahua store sells designer dog clothes at a reasonable price.

Now, I know that “reasonable” is in the eye of the beholder and is largely determined by the size of said person’s bank account. I’ll be frank: if I were a billionaire and had more money than God, I don’t think I would mind spending $3000 on a Swarovski crystal studded chihuahua dress, or $1000 or a pair of chihuahua haute couture doggie booties for my little dogs. And I’m sure they wouldn’t mind wearing this kind of small dog clothing either! Dog fashion has always looked good on my little dogs, although–I know–I am a little biased 😉

Of course, most people can’t afford to drop that kind of money at a pet boutique on clothing for their little dogs, much less for themselves! So the dog supplies people buy for their chihuahua dogs at the Chihuahua Shop are small dog clothes and chihuahua accessories that typically run around $40 and $50 for a really nice chihuahua outfit or a pair of designer yorkie pants.

Connecting people with the best chiwawa clothing you can get at sub-hundred dollar level prices is my main focus with the Chihuahua Shop right now, and if you’ve been looking for a good chihuahua store that sells this kind of clothing, check out the Chihuahua dog boutiques selection of clothing here. You can go to the local pet store to find generic dog clothing, our you can shop online in the quality dog boutiques that focus on providing the highest quality chihuahua clothing that exists today. We’re the latter.

Designer Dog Accessories For Chihuahuas and Smaller Dogs

Designer dog accessories have become so popular in the pet world with dog owners and their little dogs because they let you create that unique look for your little dog that brings out his personality on the outside, so that everyone–even people who don’t know your little dog–can instantly see who your dog is. Chihuahuas have their designer chihuahua accessories, yorkies have their uniquely Yorkshire Terrior-esque luxury dog accessories to bring out that character they have so much of but that’s typically buried deep within, and puppies of all breeds have their smaller sized designer puppy clothes!

But of course these pet accessories from the designer labels aren’t just for clothing: you’ll see designer dog carriers and other useful dog supplies in the online pet boutiques like The Chihuahua Clothes Shop or GW Little, in addition to the trendy dog clothing at the upper end of the pet fashion scale.

Down here in Mexico, it’s not exactly easy to find designer pet accessories from the local pet stores. If I ever need something that I absolutely can’t buy from an online store–and that’s rare–I’ll ask a friend of mine who travels to both the US and the UK frequently bring me back the luxury chihuahua accessories for my little chihuahua doggies I want, or the designer dog collar I couldn’t order at whatever store online because of their shipping policy. It’s really a pain when you can’t find that designer dog product at the online boutique you like because they have a crappy shipping policy. I know it’s not easy to ship things around the planet with all the extra fees business owners have to find a way to negotiate, but I still think we small dog clothing and accessory stores can do better.

That’s one of the reasons The Chihuahua Clothes Shop has been working very hard on its customer service. The whole reason I started my little designer dog clothes store was because I was fed up with the lousy service of other dog stores I had been working with, and I decided “that’s it! It’s time for a quality designer dog apparel and chihuahua dog accessory store to exist, that doesn’t screw its customers over and that provides nothing but excellent service!”

And that was it. With the help of UrbanPup, I set up the chihuahua shop in a relatively short amount of time as far as businesses are concerned, and now people from all around the world can buy that designer dog leash (we have new ones at the shop, now!), that designer dog apparel for smaller dogs, and those beautiful chihuahua clothes that I’ve seen so many chihuahuas and their owners enjoying (thank you for all the pictures!)

At the Chihuahua Shop, we really focus on small dog clothing and designer dog accessories for chihuahuas and other smaller dogs, but you can find bigger designer dog accessories like designer dog beds at the GW Little designer dog boutique. Both of these stores carry some of the very latest small dog accessories from top designers, and so if I were looking for some supplies for my little dog, those places are where I’d look! I hope that helps 🙂 -Mikey

Small Dog Apparel, And The Jovial, Round, Pink Grocery Woman

Small dog apparel: it lets you dress up your dog in cute designer dog clothes, it’s fun, it helps your chihuahua stay warm on cool nights by wrapping her in a layer of chihuahua clothes, and it makes stalkers out of perfect strangers at the grocery store.

Let me explain.

As a pet fashion enthusiast, I collect a lot of pet apparel for my little chihuahuas. Sometimes it’s a cute dog fashion coat from the Chihuahua Shop here; other times, it’s something from the luxury dog clothes for small dogs line of another online boutique. But either way, when my chihuahuas leave the house, they are well dressed!!

Well when I leave the house with my dogs, they’re usually dressed up in some of their best dog clothing. And, as it happens, when I go grocery shopping, I like to sneak my chihuahua Namaste into the store with me, to do a little spontaneous and covert K-9 grocery shopping! I usually slip her into my backpack after we step out of the car and we’re walking through the parking lot to get to the store, walk in, and then place her in that little top shelf of the buggy cart, on top of the backpack and using it as a pillow while I wheel her around and do my thing, usually without any store employees noticing (important).

So yesterday, we’re walking through the parking lot, she has her adorable chihuahua clothes on, and as I pick her up to put her in the backpack so I can sneak her in past through the door guard person here at the local “Mega” here in Puerto Vallarta, down here in Mexico, this rather large woman in pink sweat pants and a huge leopard-print visor comes charging from around this parked minivan and starts gushing about how cute Namaste is and how she has small dogs of her own, and how she loves to dress them up in yorkie clothes, and this and that and the entire kitchen sink of a conversation! I couldn’t get a word in as she walked beside me and I stuck Namaste into my backpack.

“Are you going to sneak her in?!” she announced to the entire neighborhood in her screechy voice. “I hope so,” I smiled back, now nearing the door and about to walk through. She had this look of excitement like she was going to explode or something: what is it about the mixture of chihuahuas and pet clothes that makes people loose it like this? I could see if she had never seen puppy clothes on a little dog before, but this is a person who lives with yorkies, who dresses them up in their dog coats and dog sweaters frequently, I presume. So what’s the deal with her squeal? Lol, I have to have fun with it: I’m only joking because this woman was super over the top with her adoration for Namaste and the small dog apparel she was wearing.

Anyways, I get into the store and I’m shopping around, the woman has left do to her shopping, and the usual mixture of kids and assorted other shoppers are noticing and coming up to pet the fashionable and increasingly famous chihuahua, Namaste. I’m walking through the pet supplies isle, looking to see what they have in the way of small dog collars and if they have any pet couture collars like the last grocery store I visited did (I couldn’t believe it!), when the woman sees me again and start billowing out about how cute she looks atop my grocery cart. This is not good. Now everybody is looking and staring, including the store staff.

I quicken my pace and give this jovial woman another quick smile and a knod, trying to break away, but she seems to keep following me around the store from isle to isle! She goes on and on, talking about the beds for smaller dogs and the pet furniture she found at the dog store the other day, and how she likes to use small dog harnesses on her yorkies instead of a leash. She starts talking about her shopper’s appetite for petite dog clothes–something I can relate to–so I stop my shopping for a minute to talk with her about chihuahua clothes and the Chihuahua Shop I run here, and as it turns out, she’s actually a cool person who takes good care of her dogs.

Unfortunately, it’s at this point when I spot the grocery store floor manager over the shoulder of my new, round, pink, small dog fashion enthusiast friend, and he’s walking toward us, and he doesn’t look very happy. It turns out that bringing your little dog into the store, even when she stays inside the little seat in the push cart and no matter how cute she looks in clothes for little dogs, is in violation of store policy, and I would have to take her out. And so I did …after a series of zig-zags through a few isles and a quick stop through the checkout line 😉

Perhaps that’s one of the better parts of shopping for small dog apparel online: you don’t have to deal with “store policy” like this and you can have your chihuahua right there with you, browsing through the small dog clothing to your heart’s content. If you’re looking for clothes for your small dog, check them out at the Chihuahua Store, and I’ll speak to you again really soon, probably with another weird story involving sneaking my chihuahuas into places where you’re not supposed to have them! -Mikey
