Our Puppies Wear Tees Too !



The weather has been so cold since mid-December, we have been very worried about how to keep all our delicate little charges as warm as possible. Many types of cloth and designs were tried, but all proved to be difficult to get on, difficult to do up or difficult to keep on! Then one day, looking at Maggi T Pup, a thought struck me. Why not try a part of an actual T shirt which would need no sewing. The T shirt sleeve seemed to be the most logical part of the T to use.

The first picture shows Maggi modeling the first doggie T shirt. The pretty collar is the opening of the sleeve and little Maggi was quite comfortable walking around in her T. The preparation was simple. Cut the sleeve out of the old T shirt. Cut out two small holes at the sides for the front legs to come through. Back at the Centre it took very little time to get some more Ts ready.

Of course the garments are not very fashionable, but they served the purpose. The pups were as warm and comfortable as we could make them and that's all that matters.
