If you start putting clothing on them when they are young, they will be more use to it. Try different types of clothing to see which your dog tolerates better. One easy one to start with would be the bandanas that I mentioned in the Dress Your Dog for the Holidays article. Try a t-shirt that is tighter fitting versus a loose fitting article that will flap around. Winter is a good time to get your dog use to clothing by putting a sweater or coat on him when you take him out. Don’t ever leave the clothing on the dog when you are not around because they can get tangled in it, or caught on something, or choke themselves trying to get out of it. Once you put the clothing on the dog, keep the dog occupied by taking him or her for a walk. Your dog does not need to have clothing or a costume on for the pictures that you submit for the contest.
