Hooded Fleece Bee Costume Sweater for Dogs, XS to 8L

This costume sweater turns your dog into a bee. The body is soft polyester in yellow and brown stripes, with a hood topped by two yellow pom-pom antennae, a white bow-shaped pair of wings on the back and a small white tail at the base. The underside has a lighter lining and fastens with snaps.

It is cut as a warm layer for autumn and winter, so it works as a cozy extra on cold walks as well as a costume for photos and parties. The hood is part of the design, so check that your dog is comfortable with something over the head before wearing it for long.

The range of sizes is unusually wide, running XS, S, M, L, XL and then 2L through 8L. Each size has a chart with back length, bust and neck in centimeters and inches, so measure your dog's back from collar to tail base, the widest part of the chest and the neck, then pick the size whose numbers are closest. If your dog falls between two sizes, the bigger one is the safer choice for a close-fitting garment.

Wash by hand in cool water and air dry flat so the fleece stays soft. Keep an eye on the pom-poms and wings, and take the sweater off if your dog chews at them.
