There’s NOTHING wrong with dressing your dog succubus it’s cute if you ask me, it also shows that you love your dog very much! I was JUST thinking about sewing my dog some clothes!

It’s not "weird" to dress small dogs. If it is cold, like today, they shiver and get too cold to go out for a walk. You can’t take a hairless dog out in the cold or hot sun without clothes to protect them.

Here’s something- they tell you how to resize the patterns for whatever dog you have- this is great for me as my dog is built really strangely and commercial clothes just don’t fit. He has been shivering outside already and it’s still 65 degrees most days (inside dog just like to be out)

Here are some knitting patterns too- it’s pretty easy to learn to knit- just the basics- knit, pearl, increase, decrease, cast-on, cast-off can be taught in about an hour. I have already knit my dog a little sweater which is also a great way to make custom clothes. I didn’t even use a pattern- just knit small for his neck, increased for his chest and then decreased when I got to where I wanted it to end. I made a top piece and a bottom piece and sewed them together leaving to little leg holes.

Hope this helped.

For me it’s not a ‘cute’ thing- it’s an ‘he’s shivering outside but still wants to be there" thing
