Halloween costumes – Halloween costumes are common for small dogs like Chihuahuas. Chihuahuas wear a size XS in most Halloween costumes. Because the dog is so small, a Chihuahua is able to wear some of the more intricate Halloween costumes on the market for pups. Costumes like the Disney princesses are common for small dogs like Chihuahuas. Certain types of clothes such as a crown, dress, or skirt look great on Chihuahuas because they are petite. Chihuahuas are always a big hit at Halloween parties or pet costume contests because they seldom fuss, even with the most complex costumes. Because of their size, most Halloween costumes for Chihuahuas are comprised of one piece, making it easy to get the costume on and off.
Pajamas – Pajamas have become common clothes for small dogs. Small dogs like Chihuahuas tend to get cold easily. Pajamas make it easy for them to have a layer of warmth without the fussiness of a heavy jacket or trying to stay under a blanket. Pajamas for dogs are usually made of cotton or a lightweight fabric and are woven for warmth. Pajamas for a Chihuahua can be a shirt-style with only the arms covered or have fabric covering all four limbs. Chihuahuas typically wear a XS size in clothes. If your Chihuahua is exceptionally cold-natured, they do make long-john style pajamas for dogs, which completely cover the feet. If you have tile or wood floors, this can make it difficult for your pet to get around. However, the style works well with carpeted floors.
Jacket – If you take your Chihuahua for a daily walk outdoors, you want to get him or her a jacket for the cold weather months. Chihuahuas can get very cold, even in mild temperatures and need warm clothes. It is important to cover your Chihuahua to prevent your dog from catching a cold. A lightweight jacket can be worn indoors when it is a bit cool, or outside during transitional months like September and March. Chihuahuas have a tendency to shiver rather easily, so this will be a clear sign your dog needs a lightweight jacket. You do not want the jacket to be too heavy, so look for a knit fabric which moves with your dog’s body. Hoodies are cute for a Chihuahua, but they make take your pet some time to get used to. If your dog is not used to wearing clothes, start with a plain crew-neck sweater. This will give your dog that layer of warmth without causing discomfort. Sweaters are available in all styles, from the feminine variety with flowers to those masculine types branded with NFL and MLB teams.
