Big Thanks to my model in today’s video, Blue Skye!
what about if dog has to pi ?? hell get it wet ! it’s very cute but i want it to be cut midriff so he doesn’t pi on it ! but thank you
Thanks for mentioning that this has helped with her allergies. I have an pittie mix who’s been on Apoquel year-round and gets very itchy and loses her fur in March of each year. I know she’s allergic to chicken and think she’s also allergic to grass, so I was looking for a shirt tutorial (last two I ordered didn’t fit her!) to help her out.
I keep floss in the truck to measure my boy to mesure the clothes in the store lol
Our family dog looks a lot like your baby. And about the same size. Do you mind me asking what size you used to make the doggy hoodie?
Love it!
Lol puppy
I have a 10 year old pitbull who’s had year-round severe allergies all his life. A few years ago I started him on citopoint…a shot every 3 months…and the itching is gone. It isn’t a steroid just suppresses the urge to itch and I can’t believe I didn’t know about it sooner. Give it a go! Its a bit pricey…about $620 a year ($155-ish every 3 months) but my boy’s quality of life is MUCH much better.
I have the same size dog but my dog is a boy. So how would I make him a sweater so he doesn’t pee on it . The sweater you made would be to long. Any advice???
thank you ….. i was going to sew a old work shirt to fit my girl… she is a blue merle …. great dane…thank you for mentioning great dane as well..
If you haven’t already, ask your vet about CAD (Cytopoint) injections for her allergies. might be expensive for her size but if it stops the itch then it’s worth it. it should last about 1 month but with some dogs it lasts a lot longer. you can also give her Benadryl (about 1mg per Lbs.)
I lost it at the "YEEEELOW" LOL
First off, THANK YOU. I’ve been scouring the internet for hours and hours trying to find anything for my baby girl. She’s my gorgeous hippo/land seal/manatee/blue nose pit. She’s my daughter and it hurts my heart that I cannot provide her with clothing which she LOVES. It’s not because I love her in clothes, she literally asks me to put clothes on her. How am I supposed to find clothing, when everything is for small dogs, overly expensive (I don’t even spend that much on my clothing) and basically impossible to find. So I thought, I’m a sewer, why don’t I just sew her clothing. I have no clue where to start. No patterns for a dog her size, patterns can be very expensive, and I’ve never sewn clothing for a dog before so I don’t know what to do even. That’s been my struggle. I’m at a point where I’ll bite the bullet, order something super cheap that fits her, cut it up and use it as a pattern. Then my sister in law actually recommended your channel and you’ve helped me get started on the process. So thank you!!! Also, my girls armpits, inguinal area and ears are ALWAYS itchy. It’s a pitbull thing. Poor babies, some days she’s just a walking scab. Horrible. Not even allergy meds touch it. Tried cytopoint and everything else. I’ve always thought if she wore more clothing, that could at least stop her from scratching and licking. Even pjs at night would help a lot. So, Lea and I thank you! And what a beautiful baby girl you have❤️
(Sorry this was so long)
She is GOULgeous
Gosh… my fav so far!! I have a Dane and the sweaters are started and made for tiny chihuahuas
Such a beautiful dog!!
She is so cute!
I have an apbt pup 4 months old. And she’s growing so fast I want to make her clothes too. Thanks for the video.
LOL, I have the same dog as you with 43 allergies! I work 2 jobs to keep him going! thank you for sharing I gotta do that for him I can’t afford the sweaters and shirts they sell on amazon and Petco and they are always too small for him.
Exactly what happened to me !! The chests are always too small. Thank you. Love the beginning baby laugh
She is beautiful
Asian xL is a totally different beast lol
She does not look like a Pit Bull to me. I think could be a Staffordshire Terrier and Mastiff Mix. She’s too large and bulky for a Pit Bull.
My boy has blue in his coat and gets itchy too, its a gene mutation in blue coats. Feeding him sardines, at vet advice, helps a lot. I give him a tin of sardines in water every day.
Your baby is very pretty thank you for this video I have two male American pitbull’s Zeus and Apollo and I’ve had the same issue with buying online and getting a small dog coat this way is a lot cheaper thank you God bless!
Bully breed issues! Need a bully line… the struggle is real!
I would take the string out of the hood, cut a small hole at the bottom, and put it through the waist band so you can tie it up where it’s a bit saggy. But overall good hack.
Your girl is beautiful
the dog was so cute tho
Another DIY hack for dogs is stop wasting money on expensive dog beds and use old pillow and cushion batting and an old sofa seat cover to make a bed or anything of the sort. Thrift shop come in real handy.
Love your babies!!!!! ❤️
I absolutely love this video! Thank you! I’ve decided to make matching Christmas sweaters for my BIG GIRLS and I can’t wait to use this style! Like you said its always FOR TINY PUPS!
Good
To keep the waist from hanging I cut the top of mine and made a key hole knot at the top to keep it from dragging
super easy ! great video.
Hi I don’t know if you’d see this but I have a bully and she was born with allergies do you have any recommendations or natural remedies that helped your dogs please let me know she’s only 11 months and is itching bad she’s on medication currently thank you!
She is beautiful
