My dog is a size xl (25). I can never find a size xl, it always stops at size large. Help?

I only put the clothes on for around 10 minutes(which my dog absolutley LOVES) so please stop telling me its mean, and it will harm her. Also, dr foster and smith said its sometimes good to put clothing on your dog.

I know a couple with a very large doberman. Sorry I don't have more specifics, but they bought him a pony jacket because he was too big for the biggest of dog clothes. Reading some more answers here, I should mention that they adopted him in his old age and he has many benign tumors on his belly. They need to keep him as active as possible as well as warm on his walks.
It should probably be pointed out also that many long haired breeds get groomed and for very good reasons, and when they are clipped they can get chilly. They can even visibly shivver until they get acclimatized. It is not the least bit humiliating to keep your cold dog warm. Mine even enjoys his shirts. It gets him attention which he is proud to receive. Now hats? He can do without those.
Now the dog I had before this one hated clothes entirely. We respected that. I respect my dog's wishes and personality when it comes to the "cute" factor.

Contrary to what some people think, large breeds often need some protection from the cold. Especially elderly dogs and those with arthritis, specially in a cold climate.
Great Danes in particular, have a very short coat, as do many of the giant breeds. We have found that foal coats worked great, as a Dane is just about the same size as a foal. You can get them at any tack shop, or plenty of places online.

Dogs don't need clothes. They wear fur coats 24/7.

It is not good to put clothes on animals b/c there body warmth will deprive over time. Then they will rely on clothes to keep them warm and that is not good. They have fur in the first place to do what clothes do for us. they don't need them.
