Printed Cotton Dog Shirt with Short Sleeves

Short front sleeves and a curved rear hem give this cotton dog top a simple T-shirt shape. The back design changes with the selected color: food illustrations, a crown motif and word prints are among the current options. The rear legs remain uncovered, with a higher opening underneath the body.

XS, S, M and L have separate back, chest and neck measurements. XS has a 7.5-inch back,11.4-inch chest and 7.9-inch neck; L has a 14.2-inch back,18.9-inch chest and 12.6-inch neck. Compare all three with your dog before choosing, and check movement around the front legs once the shirt is on. Our dog-clothes guide explains how to take these measurements without pulling the tape tight.

Choose the color and graphic together rather than assuming every color has the same print. Guide the front legs through the sleeves, smooth the body and check that the neckline sits comfortably while your dog turns their head. Use the shirt during attended dressing sessions. It is ordinary cotton clothing, rather than tested cooling or sun-protection equipment. Clean gently, reshape the sleeves and hem and dry the fabric fully before folding.
