Chihuahua Clothes – A Fashion Obsession!

When people think of chihuahua clothes and shirts and coats for smaller dogs, they’re commonly perceived strongly in the light of fashion over function. How often have we seen Paris Hilton in the media with her teacup chihuahua Tinkerbell dressed up in a fantastically funky chihuahua clothes outfits? Many tend to associate Paris Hilton and a lot of the negative aspects of celebrities with the act of dressing your dog in chihuahua clothes, but the reality is there are some very practical reasons for bundling up your pooch in shirts, sweaters, and even little chihuahua costumes, besides making her into a mini K9 fashionista, and they have to do with keeping her warm and comfortable.

And of course, there’s the much more common reason people dress up their chihuahuas in cute little chihuahua clothes: to make their little chihuahua dogs look insanely adorable! Yes, some of us tend to focus on the functional aspects when dressing up our chiwawa doggies in their cute chihuahua sweaters and chihuahua coats and their other funky clothes for chihuahuas. But from what I’ve seen in the dog owners I’ve met, dressing you chihuahua up in chihuahua clothing and the latest small dog fashion is usually much more about having fun and enjoying watching your little dog run around in articles of chihuahua clothes than it is for making her comforable and making her day, if I’m honest!

With that said, whether you have a teacup chihuahua, or you’ve got a long haired chihuahua, or maybe you’re a proud owner of a chihuahua rescue dog; clothing your little dog in chihuahua clothes is often a good idea because these little dogs tend to cool off easily and can spend most of their time shivering and shaking if they’re not wearing these little chihuahua clothes designed for chihuahua doggies to keep them warm. A lot of smaller dogs like chihuahuas come from hot climates and so they shake like this and get cold when we bring them into our cool homes in colder environments and we run the A/C and the fans and we don’t dress our dogs up in chihuahua fashion to not only make them irresistibly adorable, but to make them more comfortable.

Having shared my home with many chihuahuas (with each chihuahua clothed in little sweaters and chihuahua outfits and t-shirts–and yes, even adorable small chihuahua’s clothing costumes too) over the past few years, even in their native country, Mexico, I’ve found that little dogs with short hair–like many chihuahuas–get cold quite often when they spend time indoors and they’re not moving around and being active, and even the long haired chihuahua does this, too. When we bring them into our more relaxed, indoor lives, even in warmer climates, these little dogs get cold and really prefer (once they’re used to it) wearing their chihuahua clothes and having an extra layer of “fur” or two on their back, to help keep them warm.  And if you live with your chihuahua dogs in a cold climate, then you know what I’m talking about, and you probably have an entire wardrobe full of chihuahua clothes for them!

I’ll say that there definitely is a controversy among dog owners surrounding the topic of dressing your dog up in shirts and cute little chihuahua clothes costumes. Many people think it’s insane and ridiculous and that it’s borderline abusive to dress your toy chihuahua up and that you’re damaging their self esteem, and on and on…. And Cesar Millan would have us see us our chihuahuas as dogs first, before chihuahua clothes-clad”cutie pie chi chi”–the personality of the dog–second, and I totally agree with him. But who are we kidding?! Let’s be honest here: we brought these little munchkins into our lives so we could dress them up in chihuahua clothes costumes and make them adorable …while taking care of them, hahaha!

There are a lot of fashionable clothes for smaller breeds of dogs out there. Take a stroll through your local pet store and you’re bound to find an isle with chihuahua clothes and attire for other small breeds that you can dress your dog up with. And if you search around online, you’ll find vast quantities more of clothes for dogs just waiting to find their way onto the back of your cute little chihuahua and charm everyone you pass by on your walk–I can hear the “oooOOOHHhh, how cute!” voices already!–dressing your chihuahua up can be a lot of fun and it’s a very easy way to star conversations and meet people!  And by shopping around online and in pet stores in your neighborhood, you’ll find everything from cheap dog clothes to more expensive specialty costumes and chihuahua clothes for that special little teacup chihuahua in your life!

The function aspect of chihuahua apparel has to do with keeping your small dog warm. Chihuahuas originate from Mexico, a very warm country, and so they have adapted to live in warmer climates with short, thin hair and a higher metabolism. When we bring them into cooler climates and we don’t clothe them in chihuahua clothes, they tend to find it rather cold and spend a lot of the time shaking, I’m sure you’ve noticed. Even if you live in a warmer climate, they’ll often shake a night when indoors because they aren’t sleeping with a pack of other dogs and are, instead, on the kitchen floor or on a bed without anything covering them. They still find it cold, so the standard wardrobe of chihuahua clothes for most owners of these smaller dogs includes a sweater to keep them warm, and often two to wear over top of one another to keep that little dog comfortable and toasty warm at night when asleep.

If you live in colder climates where it gets chilly in the winter, you can even buy heavier chihuahua clothes coats for your chihuahua that have fur and fleece material to further insulate your chihuahua from the elements and keep him/her comfortable when walking outdoors. Also, you can buy raincoats if you live in rainier place to keep the material from absorbing water, to keep poochy warm.

No matter what you purpose in buying chihuahua clothes, be it to clothe your chihuahua in a little hoody or sweater to keep him warm, or to dress him up in a cute little costume and get your K-9 fashion freakshow on, have fun with it! You can keep your little puppy warm and comfortable and make him look adorable! That’s part of the fun!

Chihuahua Clothes: Why Dog Owners Dress Their Chihuahuas In Them

Many of the dog owners I talk to who dress up their chihuahua dogs in chihuahua clothes do so because it makes their little dogs look cute and adorable. Some of owners buy the chihuahua jumpers and hoodies to help keep their chiwawa pups warm at night or when out on a walk when the weather isn’t cooperating; but I speak to many more people who shop around at the online chihuahua boutiques and the Chihuahua Shop in order to find chihuahua clothes and small dog costumes, and other cute, superficially appealing clothing for their little dogs than I do to those who are looking for the more practical type of chihuahua clothes.

Of course, some chihuahua owners not only buy chihuahua clothes and outfits, but also designer chihuahua accessories for their little dogs, like customized chihuahua puppy collars and chihuahua jewelry. These small dog items take the whole notion of dressing up your little dog to the next level, allowing chihuahua owners to dress their puppies in a look that is completely tailored to the chihuahua’s personality and that adds to the chihuahua clothes the owner has already picked out for their little dog to wear.

Chihuahua fashion is growing in popularity with owners, along with the rise in the popularity of chihuahuas and other small doggies you can dress up. Walking into dog clothing stores today, you’ll see racks and isles full of designer chihuahua clothes, just waiting to dress up your little chihuahua doggie in hip, trendy outfits that only a famous fashion icon of a chihuahua could pull off! There are even luxury chihuahua clothes labels like Susan Lanci Designs that make $3000 chihuahua dresses studded with crystals, and then there are the fashion brands like Chanel and Louis Vuitton who make chihuahua doggie clothes for a hefty price, as well.

So some fashion forward dog owners who have chihuahuas really take on that whole fashionista/fashion icon approach with their small dog’s chihuahua clothes and have a fashion field day with them and pretend that the world is their audience and that every sidewalk is a chihuahua clothes fashion show runway for their little to strut her stuff on down the catwalk and show off everything she’s got, in her protective paw chihuahua booties and her little fashionable chihuahua socks that dress her up and make her the superstar chihuahua clothes dog in the spotlight. I know more than a few owners who have dozens of chihuahua clothes outfits like this for their small breed dogs and take this approach with them.

On the opposite end of the spectrum are pet owners who use small dog clothing on their chihuahuas for more practical purpose. These are chihuahua lovers who, yes, they may put a chihuahua clothes costume on the outside of their dog’s sweater, and may buy the custom chihuahua collars and the fancy chihuahua accessories for their pooch as a nice touch to finish off their little dog’s look, but those things are simply icing on the cake for them because their main focus when using chihuahua clothes to dress up their dogs is to keep their dogs more warm and comfortable than they would otherwise be.

Little dogs like chihuahuas almost always have a naturally higher metabolism that releases their body heat much faster and lets them cool off in hot climates (where they come from and where they evolved) than bigger dogs. And so when living in cooler places than Mexico, for instance, owners often dress up their chihuahuas in these little, dainty chihuahua clothes to help keep them warm. The chihuahua shirts you see their little dogs wearing are their to help trap a bit of the little dog’s body heat in, to better insulate him and keep him more comfortable. These are the owners whose chihuahua wardrobes are stocked with chihuahua sweaters and fleeces and all the different types of chihuahua coats and heavier chihuahua clothes you can imagine. And if they live in place that gets a lot of rain in the summer months, you’ll also usually see their little chiuauas wearing chihuahua raincoats to help them stay bone dry and warm as a result, so they can enjoy walking in the rain.

So there definitely is a segment of dog lovers who use chihuahua clothes for this more functional and practical purpose. They may be outnumbered by the more fashion minded small dog owners who use the clothing to dress their chihuahua rescue up and make him look as adorable and irresistible as possible, and make that little dog into a true rags to riches chihuahua rescue story, but they do exist and some people use chihuahua attire for this more practical reason.

Regardless of whether you shop for chihuahua hats for dogs or you’re more a chihuahua T-shirt and sweater kind of owner who likes to keep her dog comfy and cute, one of the best places to find these clothes for chihuahua dogs is at the chihuahua clothes shop I started I few months back and that has been growing like crazy and taking off ever since. The Chihuahua Shop we have here stocks only the best, most high quality chihuahua clothes available today, and I think you’ll really like it. So check it out and see for yourself.

What Kinds of Chihuahua Clothes Are There?

I’m in a lucky position as a chihuahua owner and as someone who writes and works in the fun world of chihuahua clothes because I get to talk with so many little dog-loving people about their chihuahua pets and the clothes they have their little chihuahua puppies wear. One of the most frequent questions I’m asked by people is something along the lines of “what kinds of chihuahua clothes are there today?” These are people who have seen little dogs walking down the street or on TV wearing funky like chihuahua K-9 fashion, and are interested in buying some new chihuahua clothes for their own little pooches.

And when I tell them what I think about the current state of the industry of chihuahua clothes and I let them in on the current story of what kinds of chihuahua apparel exists out there today, my answer takes about 10 minutes to explain!–there are so many different types of chihuahua clothes and chihuahua costumes and outfits out there for smaller dogs today that everyone from teacup chihuahua owners to long haired chihuahua pups have such variety at their paws today that it’s a little crazy.

For the practical chiwawa owner, there are the practical chihuahua clothes like the chihuahua sweater, and the chihuahua coat. These keep these little dogs warm by allowing their furry little dog bodies to hold their body heat better. For for the more common type of chihuahua owner–the chihuahua fashion addict–we have chihuahua clothes like the chihuahua dress and the funky chihuahua T-shirt pairing that comes with the shirt for your chihuahua dog and a bigger one with the same design for you, the owner. And this is just scratching the surface: there are so many other chihuahua dog clothes and accessories in the chihuahua shops and stores currently that it’s almost impossible to list and describe them all here.

With the chihuahua collars you can customize with your dog’s name on it in crystal Diamante lettering and the different materials and styles you can find these small dog collars in, it’s actually impressive how much customization you have at your fingertips today when you’re looking to “pimp” your little chihuahua dog you rescued from the shelter with little chihuahua clothes and these chihuahua accessories!

There are also accessories like chihuahua socks and accompanying booties for chihuahuas that you can put on your apple head chihuahua’s feet, to help keep them warm, comfortable, and better protected from annoying pebbles on the street when she’s on her walk her with her fashionable chihuahua clothes-built-in chihuahua harness, which will of course be attached to the stylish chihuahua lead you use to walk her through the dog park when she’s wearing her stylish chihuahua clothes and down the trails in your local city so your little deer head chihuahua can enjoy the scents and sounds of nature, even when she lives in the chaos of a busy urban environment.

Of course, the benefit of living in these crazy urban centres is that they’re very toy dog-centric and they are chalk full of cool chihuahua clothes that are sold in the best chihuahua stores in big cities like Beverly Hills, L.A., New York, and Chicago, just to name a few American chihuahua outfit hot spots. In these places, you’ll find formal chihuahua fashion like bridal dresses and groom tuxes for you chiuaua dogs that you can use to unofficially marry your little dogs or bring them with you to a human wedding. Both the chihuahua wedding dress and the chihuahua clothes tuxedo a popular little dog costume selling like crazy right now our shop, and it’s kind of funny seeing your chihuahua, who normally lounges around the house and the pool and walks the streets and through the malls with you in her cozy chihuahua clothes, all decked out and dressed to the nines and ready to wed in a chihuahua bridal dress!

As for those cozy, casual chihuahua clothes, the pyjamas for chihuahua dogs and the comfy chihuahua bathrobe outfit make a good fashion team for the little dog who’s had a long day. What better way than to end a long, hard day of walking through the neighborhood and the doggie park and running around the track with her owner than to slip on a pair of comfortable chihuahua clothes, made specifically for her breed, and curling up on your lap?

And for those living in hot, humid parts of our spinning dirt ball where it rains a lot, little dogs appreciate wearing chihuahua rain coats to keep dry and stay out of the wet, miserable weather. On a cold day, you can use a chihuahua jumper on your little chihuahua rescue dog, to help her stay warm when you go out for a walk and to let her do her “business.” And the chihuahua hoodies and chihuahua sweatshirts are other popular chihuahua clothes small dog owners use when a heavy dose of lounging around and catching up on some much needed chihuahua rest is on the agenda for the day, for their little pet chihuahuas. These little chihuahua dog clothes let her rest and relax in the comfort and in style, and they provide your chihuahua with a little extra comfort when she’s catching up on her shuteye. These chihuahua clothes keep her a bit more warm and more comfy while she rests.

Now, if it’s winter time right now and you’re reading this, or you live in the Arctic or something crazy and you own a chihuahua doggie, then chihuahua clothes coats will definitely be on the small dog fashion menu, I’m willing to bet! Winter chihuahua coats come in a very wide variety of styles, and you can find everything form the chihuahua parka to the the chihuahua ski jacket, as well as different vests and chihuahua fleeces and other heavy chihuahua clothes, all to help your chi stay toasty warm and trap in her body heat when it’s freezing cold outside and you need to keep your little doggy warm and safe from the harsh elements of the cold and hostile environment you live in. These chiwawa clothes are a life saver for your little pet chihuahua and if you live in a sub zero climate, they’re a must.

If you take a gander through your local mall and there’s a pet store, or better yet: a chihuahua shop, you’ll notice that the chihuahua clothes designers are making chihuahua polo outfits and chihuahua skirts now. It’s not as though your chihuahua can make in this big world with her naturally cute looks and her adorable little doggie sweater–no: she needs to wear chihuahua clothes like her chihuahua jeans and chihuahua shorts to really dress up and take on that whole small chihuahua fashionista vibe that dog owners seem to be going for right now–even when taking their little puppy into the vet for a quick checkup or a vaccination! No joke, at the vet’s office, I’ve seen little dogs sporting chihuahua pants and chihuahua hats and chihuahua caps, all purchased from the cheap chihuahua clothes store online, apparently so the little dog would be “presentable” and appropriate for a trip to the veterinarian. It’s a little insane. Then again, when you’re talking about people who are constantly thinking of new ways to combine both vintage and new chihuahua fashion clothing trends to come up with something unique for their little dog to wear, it’s kinda par for the course.

The Chihuahua Clothes Store carries all of these, and at non-insane prices to boot. The chihuahua jewelry like the chihuahua collar charms and the chihuahua necklaces that pair perfectly with the nice chihuahua clothes you find in that online dog clothing shop are perfect if you have a chihuahua fashion fever and you need to outdo Lady Gaga with you little dog’s fashionable appearance. And so if you’re looking around to find some of the very best clothes for you chihuahua that I have ever seen, head over to the Chihuahua Clothes Shop and see what I mean when I say that.

How Do I Find Chihuahua Clothes?

A lot of dog owners who me and know that I run the Chihuahua Shop that sells all the chihuahua clothes often ask me where they can find the very best value chihuahua clothes. My answer is almost always for them to start by browsing the Chihuahua Shop because it everyone involved with it is committed to bringing in and selling only the best chihuahua costume outfits and chihuahua sweaters and chihuahua dresses and all the other small doggie clothing and accessories that you can imagine for a chihuahua dog.

browse the Chihuahua Clothes ShopSometimes, the Shop even brings in specialty chihuahua clothes like cute little designer chihuahua tank top fashion outfits and limited edition chihuahua T-shirts that are only released by the original artist once and then they sell out and they’re gone. And other times, like right now as of writing this, we have the special edition Wizard of Oz chihuahua collars that actually feature in the musical play on stage in the UK on the dog that plays Toto!

But apart from my store, I’ll tell people to head over to G.W. Little because their focus is the same as ours: delivering very high quality small dog clothes to their customers with excellent customer service, but they carry completely different lines of chihuahua accessory products and chihuahua clothes.

After that, especially if you’re looking for a particular chihuahua collar or special chihuahua sock pairs or boots or chihuahua clothes of any kind for your little dog that are rare and unusual, or even something as common as chihuahua dog harnesses–but ones that have a certain design or pattern on it that you’re looking for–you’re going to have to use a good old search engine to find it, if you’re shopping online; or you’re going to have to do things the old fashioned way and physically drive from
pet store to pet store in your local area and search for that specialty chihuahua leash you’re so keen on giving to your precious little chihuahua doggy for her birthday as a gift, along with those awesome luxury chihuahua clothes you’re planning on pampering your chihuahua pooch with.

But your best bet in finding chihuahua fashions in vogue are to seek them out online, on the internet, because the amount of variety and selection in the chihuahua clothes you can find online today far surpasses what you can find in the local dog boutiques where you live, I can 99.9% guarantee you. Even Amazon.com carries a decent selection of chihuahua clothes today. Now, I’m not going to bash them: Amazon is a great company and I love their service, but the clothes I’ve seen on their site–the chihuahua wedding dresses and the chihuahua tuxedos, and all those other funky chihuahua outfits I’ve perused over the past few years on their site–all seem a tad bland to my eyes. They do have some good discounts once in a while on their cheap chihuahua clothes, but I have never bought from them, and it’s rare that I talk to anyone who’s really into chihuahua fashion who has almost anything in the way of chihuahua dog pajamas or cool chihuahua bathrobes from them. I’m not saying you can’t find good chihuahua clothes for little dogs from Amazon, I’m just saying I think you can find better, higher quality ones, elsewhere.

a pink chihuahua raincoatWhen people come to me and ask me “Mikey, I see your chiwawa dogs wearing their cute chihuahua clothes raincoat fashion all the time here when it’s raining out and you’re walking your dogs; where do you get those?” I go back to referring them to the Chihuahua Shop, simply because our summer chihuahua clothes including the raincoats for little dogs–all of them–are on sale right now and it’s hard to beat them for price when you’re talking about chihuahua raincoats as cool as these ones: they’re pretty awesome looking on your small dogs, and they do a great job of keeping my chihuahuas dry when it starts to pour cats and chihuahuas (that aren’t wearing their chihuahua clothes!)

As for the other types of practical clothing for pet chihuahuas, you can find very high quality and customizable chihuahua clothes dog jumpers at the Shop as well, along with cool chihuahua clothes like chihuahua hoodies and stretchy chihuahua sweatshirt outfits that will keep your little puppies warm when the weather isn’t cooperating and you need to take your dogs outside on their walks along the cool city pavement or out in the cool breeze of the wilderness wherever you live, if you’re living more of the rural life right now.

There are some other good shops online that sell chic chihuahua clothes, but I’ve found that to find the really hip, trendy, cool fashion for chihuahuas, you usually have to pay through the nose to get your paws on a decent chihuahua coat from a designer or a winter coat for chihuahua doggies that comes from a luxury label of dog clothing. I’ve seen designer chihuahua parkas and chihuahua fleece coats sell for over $1000 US at some of the high end chihuahua shops, and you can spend a lot more than that if you have money to blow and you have a chihuahua apparel itch that you just have to scratch with your credit card. Personally, these dog clothes are too much for my wallet to handle, but again, if you’ve got the cash and you want to make your credit card bleed crimson, you can head over the chihuahua clothes section of G.W. Little because, if I’m not mistaken, they carry some very, very nice luxury brands of chihuahua clothes and I would definitely check them out first if that is what you’re looking for, to completely spoil your chihuahua and drown her in small dog clothing that’s fit for K-9 royalty.

So in short, if you’re looking for very high quality chihuahua clothes, the first place to stop is the Chihuahua Clothes Shop. We even stock weird outfits like chihuahua pull-overs, chihuahua skirt outfits, and even little chihuahua jean pants with pockets and zippers and the whole deal! The store also carries other chihuahua clothing oddities such as fashionable chihuahua shorts, chihuahua pants, an entire line of chihuahua hat costumes, and even a collection of chihuahua cap costumes. It’s a little crazy, the selection of tiny chihuahua clothes that the Chihuahua Shop carries. So whether you’re looking for wacky chihuahua costumes or you’re just looking for the coolest and most comfortable chihuahua clothes for your little pet chihuahua dog, head over the Chihuahua Shop here and you’ll probably find what you’re looking for right there. Chihuahua clothes are fun, and shopping for the at them at that store is seriously fun!
