Little essentials. Lots of love.

These are the smaller holiday pieces for dogs: tartan, plaid and printed Christmas bandanas, pom-pom and faux-fur trimmed bandanas, knitted scarves, bibs and hat sets, tasseled festive collars, a plaid cape with a fur collar and a reindeer dress-up set. There is also a Christmas tree cat tower for cat households. It is for owners who want their pet dressed for the holidays without a full sweater.

Bandanas, collars and scarves

Bandanas are the easiest holiday accessory: they slip over or tie around a collar and most dogs barely notice them. Adjustable tartan bandanas fit a range of neck sizes, and printed cotton ones are easy to wash. Knitted scarves and bibs add warmth on cold walks as well as color.

Festive collars with tassels or plaid are worn like an ordinary collar for the season. Keep your dog's ID tag on, and use a harness for walks if your dog pulls, since decorative collars are not built for heavy strain.

Hats, antlers and dress-up sets

Santa hats, reindeer antlers and dress-up sets make great photos, and many dogs tolerate them for a few minutes. Put them on just before the photo, reward your dog, and take them off afterward.

Watch your dog's body language. Pinned ears, lip licking, freezing or trying to rub the item off mean it has had enough. Never leave a hat or headband on an unsupervised dog, and check elastic straps are not tight under the chin.

Sizing and fit

Measure around the neck where a collar sits and add a little room for a bandana or scarf to sit loosely. You should be able to slide two fingers under anything around the neck.

For capes, measure the chest and back length, as you would for a coat. Tie-on items should be tied in a quick-release bow rather than a knot, so they come off easily if they catch on something.

Holiday safety for pets

Decorations and accessories bring small parts into the house. The ASPCA warns that tinsel can cause a blocked digestive tract, that broken ornaments can injure the mouth and gut, and that chewed electrical cords can cause a dangerous shock. Check bells, pom-poms and tassels are firmly attached and remove anything your dog chews.

The ASPCA also advises keeping fatty, sweet and spicy foods and turkey or chicken bones away from pets, and keeping alcoholic drinks out of reach. If your pet swallows something it should not have, call your vet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center at (888) 426-4435; a fee may apply.

Accessories for cats and small dogs

Many bandanas, scarves and knitted collars in this range also fit cats and toy breeds. Cats are less tolerant of clothing than most dogs, so a light bandana or a breakaway-style collar is usually as far as a cat will go.

For any small pet, keep accessories light, check nothing dangles where it can be chewed, and take everything off once the photo is done. A cat or small dog that freezes, hides or tries to scratch an item off is telling you it has had enough.

Are Christmas dog bandanas safe?

Yes, when worn loosely with room for two fingers and under supervision. Choose quick-release ties and check that decorations such as pom-poms are firmly attached.

How do I get my dog to wear a Santa hat?

Introduce it for a few seconds with treats, build up gradually, and put it on just before the photo. Take it off as soon as your dog shows discomfort.

Can my dog wear a Christmas collar on walks?

Many festive collars are fine for calm walks with an ID tag attached. For dogs that pull, clip the leash to a harness and keep the collar for looks.

What holiday decorations are dangerous for dogs?

The ASPCA highlights tinsel, broken ornaments, electrical cords and batteries, plus fatty foods, bones and alcohol. Keep them out of reach and supervise pets around the tree.
