My dog is so sensitive to the cold.
He shakes on winter.

If your dog is especially small, do what someone I used to know did with her Chinese Crested (no hair at all - "my little pony" dogs). She went to "Build-a-Bear" store (where you build and dress your own bear) and she found clothes there. She had the cutest little jean mini skirt and pink t-shirt!!
Also, some of the people pattern places (McCalls, etc) are now making the patterns. Look in the crafts section. Those are adjustable as far as size goes. Not sure if it is by weight or what.
Just a couple of terms to keep in mind for measuring -
length of back is from withers (where the shoulderblades are tallest behind the neck) to the point where the hip bones stick up around the hips.
height is from the withers to the ground with the dog standing natural.
width of chest is a measurement taken around the chest (like on people) at the deepest part of the chest (where the chest is lowest to the ground).
Hope that helps

Would a sweater /jumper not fit? a woolly type would stretch! You can get some great ones on ebay. My dig has a GAP hoody which I bought in the US. Some of the dog clothes there are crazy!

Don't put your dog in clothes its not fair thats why they are given a hairy coat. People like Paris Hilton and the like should not be allowed to own dogs.

You dress up dolls not dogs, if he's cold and wet when he comes in then give him a good rubbing with a towel then use a hair dryer to finish the job, or let him lie beside the fire,

Dogs don't need clothes, they have fur. A dog in a tweed jacket is almost cruelty in my opinion. Its a rubbish idea.

I believe they sell patterns at Wal Mart and craft stores like Michaels. They have a very wide selection of stuff for your puppy...I think they even have halloween costume patterns.

What do you mean 'fit with your dog?' Do you mean he doesn't like them or they don't fit. Dogs don't need to wear clothes, and should not be humiliated in this way and you should wake up and not fall for extremely silly trends .You should take stock and grow up

Frankly, I think outfits on dogs (aside from the occasional Halloween costume) are unnecessary and humiliating for the dog. I've yet to see any dog be happy about having clothes on.

find a good pet shop cos they do do bigger sizes...to stop him shivering make him run more...dogs have their own coats to keep em warm don;t need coats unless they are bald, and they look silly wearing clothes poor things
