Santa Paws
« on: December 05, 2005, 05:19:27 pm »
Finally, outfits for big puppies too. Since I have been unable to find really cute outfits (and warm for really cold days) I started making my own.  Winston takes walks in these and has had no problems with them binding or catching on things.  He can walk, sit, or lay quite comfortably.   Soooo, for the holidays, "Santa Paws".  Designed to be roomy and comfortable yet short enough not to be stepped on.  This design accomodates 70-100 lbs. and can also be designed for larger puppies.

Thanks, wanted to make something the puppies could enjoy wearing as well as something we can enjoy looking at.

Absolutely adorable!!!!  I know what you mean about finding big dog costumes....ha d to come up with a costume for my Kuvasz for my wedding.  He ended up in a tuxedo....I really wanted a sailor outfit but they only came in little dog sizes!!!!  And I didn't have time to make something.

I know exactly what you mean.  Wanted to get a funny halloween costume and found you couldn't get them for big puppies, which is what started me making these.  Your puppies wedding suit dilema was similar to mine, I'll attach the picture.

Those are super cute. Once I become a better seamstress, I'll make Bear an outfit too.

I appreicate the input.  I really want to start making these for sale as so many of us have big puppies and can't find good comfortable outfits for our babies.  Hopefully, by next year I can be in full swing with a whole ensemble, you know, patriotic, St. Pat's, football, baseball, etc.

I made the pattern myself as none were available.  It took some time but I've got it pretty well worked out now.  I'm going to see if I can't copywrite it & eventually get to selling these.

Ummm, sort of.  Been working so hard on outfits & making my own Christmas cards with Big Puppy on the front that I just started decorating today.  So far it's been quite an experience what with all the help from my pals!  I don't think he can remember last Christmas as he was so small but the cats are having a hay day!  I'm trying to put the tree in a corner so it has some shelter from the storms, so to speak.

Talk about cute!!!!! Your baby takes the cake.  We just took Winston in for his yearly check-up.  He is now 117.4 lbs.  Should probably grow another inch or so in height and close to another 100 lbs. in the next year.  We are truely proud parents!  You should be too!
