A chihahua (sp?) > sweater would probably work. > Dot No directions to knit or crochet a sweater but the small sweaters are available from the mail order companies, I just pulled out my J-B Wholesale Pet Supplies catalog and found an xx-small sweater for $5.95. J-B is a NJ company so that keeps it on topic. :-) They are in Oakland, where the Boy Scout camps, Camp Glen Grey and Camp Tamarack were located. I have known the owners for years, In fact, my customer # is in the low 100's. It would have been lower but I used to go right to the company and get my things. Their web site is jbpet.com and their toll free # is 800-526-0388. Within NJ the # is 201-405-1111 The sweater I'm looking at in the xx-small only comes in 2 colors, red and cobalt. Larger sizes have other colors available too. The xx-small measurement is 6" from the base of the neck to the base of the tail. If you think this is too large call them as they they have sizes to fit all dogs and puppies. Hope this helps! Judy ------ Judy Lamken, Kilkee Kerries Chicagoland mailto:kerries@kilkee.net
