Thursday Fashion Report - Being festive for Halloweenie without wearing a costume

Here we are again in that yummy, but yet frightful time of year. The time where all new wiener dog mothers decide to dress us in an overly huge hot dog costume and giggle hysterically because we have ketchup going down our back. I feel your pain wieners... mom did this to me last year...

Not everyday is Halloweenie or a costume contest, thank you lord! So what's a wiener to do on those crisp fall evenings during his neighborhood stroll or on his shopping trips to and fro for food at the local pet store?

We found the answer during our latest trip to the local Petco store!
We selected a new hoodie, that's sure to stir up some fright in the local children who always, "I wanna peeeet the wieeener doooog" Let's just be honest here... local neighborhood child, I do NOT know where your hands have been - nor do I want to find out! Hands off this sausage, grrr!

Here's the link to the sweater in case you would like to purchase one yourselves. It comes in black / white for the male doggies and a fabulous bright pink and white for the female doggies in your life, both have a skeleton design with a fabulous sprinkling of minature candy corns...yum!!

I typically wear a small in most outfits, I found the small in this particular hoodie to run just a tad to little, but it does still fit and give enough room. The sleeves give just a smidge of flip out at our elbows, it actually looks cute. We of course discovered the hood will not fit properly due to our longer necks and bodies then most other dogs, this was no surprise. But mom did try to lay the hood flat so the design could be displayed. Chance got his traditional medium size, it fit about the same as  mine, it fit but a tad smaller then we're used too. This hoodie does have the cut/sewn hole in it near the hood area for your leash to come through and attach. We saved the best part for last....

IT GLOWS IN THE DARK!

Overall, we would say this hoodie is a go on the to purchase list.

Bark at you next week as we debate the pros and cons of making vs. purchasing Halloweenie costumes for dachshund bodies.
