Chilly Dog Spencer Striped Dog & Cat Sweater

We purchased this for our barrel-chested Shih Tzu, who is always cold. Her girth is 19", her back is 14" and she weighs 14 lbs, so based on these measurements we purchased a size Small. When we tried it on her, the front leg holes were positioned so far back in the sweater that it bunched up between her front legs and her neck, so she couldn't move her neck. Also, the red trim around the neck was knitted so much tighter than the neck itself than when we flipped it over (as shown on the dog modeling the sweater), it was so tight that it was borderline choking our dog and certainly not safe for her to wear. Beyond the poor fit, the quality of the sweater was excellent -- very thick and warm We purchased this for our barrel-chested Shih Tzu, who is always cold.

The sweater is absolutely darling, however I do feel like it runs on the big side...plus it stretches out more when worn. I would’ve tried to exchange, but our pup is loosing all his fur from lymphoma and the cold temps were already here. I would definitely recommend ordering a size smaller than the chart says!

This sweater looked much better in person than in the picture. It is very well made - we especially love how the sides curve downward with a stiffer ribbing to cling to the dogs mid section. The quality vs the price was a very good match... Unfortunately, 3XL was still not large enough for our midsize Great Dane. We barely got it on him & it pulls tight between the neck and front legs. It would be awesome if they made this in a 4XL for giant breeds!!

This sweater is absolutely adorable but far too large. May we return it for one size smaller? We emailed and have not seen a response yet- chalking it up to covid, everything seems to be moving slower this year.

It took a little longer to arrive than a typical Chewy order, but oh my gosh, it is so cute and warm. Easy on and off. Keeps our little guy very warm!

I love this sweater! My momma says I look very handsome in it, and I love that it keeps me warm. It's easy to take on and off. Momma is also impressed that it was hand-knitted and responsibly sourced - a win-win all around!

i love chewy!!!!!! they accidently shipped me two. they credited my account and told me i could donate the extra sweater to my local shelter. I love this company. will always order from them. :)

I wondered about buying a sweeter that was so pricey but it is so perfect for my 5 pound chihuahua. We get some windy days and this seems to keep very warm and it looks really cute.

I wash it as instructed but it still smells really bad, I may try baking soda next time. That is the only negative thing I have to say, but it is a significant stinky smell, a chemical smell.

This is the only sweater that fits my very long, but slender dog. It was gorgeous, sizing was correct, and was pretty heavy for fall walks. However, one day into wearing it, the knit unraveled to the point of making it unwearable. Thankfully Chewy is amazing and refunded me, but I was unreasonably upset by how easily it just fell apart. Considering ordering another as this may have been a defect- I don't see other reviews mentioning this.
