Ah, at last, Spring. The season when we emerge from our double-layered leggings and chunky sweaters and find our lighter and brighter attire. It’s the season of picnics, graduation parties, cookouts and family reunions.
And if you’re like me you’re thinking, “but, what will (insert pet name here) wear?!” So many appearances for your pet, so few wardrobe options. Well I have found a solution for our furry friends!
Feast your eyes on the EASIEST pet accessory. Not only will your dog (or cat) look as dapper as the neighbors’ just-groomed poodle, this accessory is simple and comfortable enough that your pet may actually wear it (unlike the “Great Halloween Disaster of 2015” when I attempted to dress my cat up as a mermaid).
What you’ll need:
- An old collared shirt
- Scissors
- Tape measure
- Your pet’s patience
3 easy steps:
1. Measure your pet’s neck circumference (simplest way is to measure their collar).
2. Visit your local thrift store to find an appropriate sized shirt based on neck size (unless you and your pet wear the same sized shirt, in which case I’m SO jealous of the possibilities!).
3. Cut out the collar of the shirt by cutting around the base of the neck seam (leaving at least one button so that you can fasten the collar).
Take a pic of your dapper pet and and make them a social media star! Share your pic using the hashtag #SusquehannaStyle, we’d love to see them!
Thanks to my brother Clyde for being the most handsome model around!
