Dog Onesies Are A Popular Trend

By Carol Edwards


Dog owners are often known for spoiling their four legged furry babies. While many people might view buying clothing for a pet, especially one that already has a fur coat, to be extravagant, pet owners often go to great lengths to ensure their animals are comfortable and happy. Dog onesies are a popular trend for dog owners.

A onesie is a one piece outfit that covers the entire torso. Some have long sleeves and some short, and when it comes to canines, they most often have open feet so that the paws are exposed. This is often because they are meant for the animal to wear them when the weather outdoors is cooler, but leaving the paws exposed keeps the material from becoming soiled, wet, or from wearing through. They are often made this way to help the animal maintain grip and balance, especially in climates where sidewalks and roads can become slippery because of ice or snow.

To help make them more practical, the groin area is often left open. This exception helps to ensure that the outfit stays cleaner and that the animal is able to do it's business without the owner having to remove the garment. The onesie can be a solid, one piece outfit, but is often secured using snaps or even buttons to make it easier to get it on and off.

Made of many types of material, there is certainly a garment for any occasion. A quick search will turn up all kinds of patterns that can be used to sew, knit or crochet an outfit for a canine of any size. There are also many online shops and brick and mortar pet stores that carry an abundance of styles.

In cool or cold weather, a onesie is certainly an important piece of clothing. For animals without a thick coat, breeds with flat laying fur, or for a dog who requires frequent grooming, this clothing item can provide a great layer of warmth and can make trips outside much more enjoyable for the dog. In cold climates, it is important to keep dogs warm while walking outside.

Of course, they aren't only for staying cosy, they can also help any canine and their owner make a fashion statement. Available in many colours, styles and weights, they are a great addition to any pet's wardrobe. From fancy outfits to something simple, there is a style that will fit in with anyone's taste.

Onesies are made in all sizes and shapes. While often thought to be intended for smaller breeds of dog, larger breeds that have a short coat, such as greyhounds or rottweilers, a can benefit greatly by wearing one.

Dressing up your dog has never been easier. Whether for fun, fashion or warmth, there are such an array of colours, styles and materials available there is definitely something for every size, shape and breed, no matter the weather!
