As someone who loves chihuahua dog clothes, I get fairly excited over almost any opportunity to dress my chihuahua dog, Namaste, up in her chihuahua dog clothes, and so when my neighbor calls me up and asks if Namaste can come over for a chihuahua play date with her doggies, I freaking jump at the chance! I grab a few of her dog clothes for chihuahua outfits, my laptop, and we’re off out the door to the neighbor’s house so our chihuahuas can play together while we visit and do some work in the same space.

A few years ago, if someone told me I’d be taking my chihuahua to go to a chihuahua dog clothing play date, I would have told them they were on crack. Nothing could have been further from my mind. But after inadvertently adopting a few chihuahuas and spending some time with them, I’ve become big softy for these little dogs and their small dog clothes, and the entire chihuahua dog fashion scene!

So anyway, this past time I took Namaste over to her chihuahua dog friend’s house to play, I dressed her up in her favorite toy dog clothes, and off she went to play while I had coffee with the other chihuahua’s owner: my friend. We got to talking about chihuahua dog clothes while our chihuahuas were there, in front of us, wearing their chihuahua clothing, and I started to wonder if we would go blind or something from doing this Luckily for us, the answer was no, and it’s a good thing because once two chihuahua dog fashion fanatics get into a conversation about small dog clothes, it takes an eternity or, in this case, the threat of some sort of natural disaster, to bring an end to that conversation.

And I kid you not: that is what it came to. I was working on my laptop while my friend was working on hers at the same table, and our chihuahua dogs were off playing together, dressed in their chihuahua dog clothing, when the tropical storm that had just been upgraded to hurricane status rolled into town with a furry, and the windows and everything started to really shake like crazy with the intense wind gust blasting against them. With all the commotion, our little pets in their dog clothes for chihuahuas started to FREAK out a bit and were coming up to us and looking at us for direction, with that “what should I do?”-look.

So, of course, being the chihuahua puppy clothes freaks that we are, we broke out their chihuahua dog thunder jackets and put them on them. I’m not sure if these chihuahua clothes actually have any magical powers anything strange like that or if it’s just some kind of placebo effect it has on our chihuahuas’ mind, but these outfits really do help our little dogs to stay more calm when the weather turns downright hostile outside. And so for them, their chihuahua doggie clothes inspired play date could continue, and they went back off into the living room to roughhouse and play and wrestle and rip around in their chihuahua clothing, having their chihuahua fun.

And that made me happy because I was able to get back to my work on the Chihuahua Shop, where we carry only very high quality chihuahua dog clothes that I would invite you to check out yourself if you love dressing up your dog in cute chihuahua clothes, and everything turned out great!

I’ve been looking at these trendy dog collars at the Chihuahua Clothes Shop lately, and I have to admit: I’m impressed. Normally, I’m not really big on flashy, frilly-laced jewelry for my dog. In fact, up until just a few years ago, I thought the whole notion of chihuahua clothing was a complete joke. I thought it was ridiculous, dressing dogs in little outfits made by us. Well I got two small dogs of my own–two chihuahuas–and that all changed in a hurry! It wasn’t even two weeks before my little doggies were running around in their K-9 haute couture chihuahua fashion outfits and their other adorable dog clothes for chihuahuas. A few weeks later, I had to splurge on personalized dog collars for them and complete the look for them, for all-out chihuahua effect. It was a little overboard for me, but the chihuahuas certainly looked the part!

Fashionable dog collars have always been a favorite dog accessory of mine. They way I see it, your dog’s collar is her most important piece of fashion. She wears it all the time, it holds her license and ID tags, and it’s like her jewelry. I’ve notice my little dogs get quite attached to their chihuahua collars: when I remove them, they lean forward and sniff it and look up at me and then at the collar, expectantly, just wanting and waiting for me to put it back on around their neck.

So I’ve been working on finding the best rhinestone collars in the online dog boutiques lately. I’ve seen some great lather strap dog collars that do the customizable crystal print letters like we do here at the Chihuahua Shop, but for the most part, I like what we have a lot more than the other styles I’m seeing out in most other stores.

I’ve always been a fan of those polka dot collars you can find at the local pet stores, that you can find in the section with all the nylon dog collars. I usually go with nylon for my foster dogs, simply because it’s a bit cheaper (and when you foster as many rescues as I do, that becomes an issue, let me tell you!) But when you got to step it up a little and you want to move into more of the designer dog collars for your chihuahua, then you’re almost always going to be dealing with trendy dog collars that have leather straps.

The leather dog collars tend to last longer than the nylon ones, and this isn’t probably going to be your biggest concern when you’re a chihuahua owner because even when they roughhouse, they’re not exactly bringing down the house with the amount of damage they can do to the house or to their chihuahua clothing, but if you’ve got a pug or a dachshund or a bit bigger dog than a chihuahua, you’ll appreciate the leather straps on their collars.

In addition to the collars, you can find designer dog leads and chihuahua harnesses that match in style and are usually sold together, which is perfect if you’re the fashion-tastic type who loves having things coordinated with your chihuahua accessories and dog apparel!

But to wrap this up, I have to say that right now, I’m most excited about the new Wizard of Oz Swarovski dog collars (pictured at the top of this article) that the Chihuahua Clothes Store just brought in! Even the whole story of how these trendy dog collars came to be is interesting, and I recommend you go check them out and see them for yourself and learn about them, here; they’re pretty freaking cool. So check those dog collars out, check out the Chihuahua Shop, and I’ll be back again very soon. -Mikey
