If you are looking to buy Dog collars and leashes for your pet, following are some of the tips to make your life smarter, faster and smarter.

Measurements:

When measuring your dog for new clothes, follow these recommendations: measures-dogs
•    Measure your dog from the base of the neck to where the tail joins the body.
•    Measure the outline of the dog to the widest point, behind the front legs, by the stomach.
•    Make sure the dog is standing and straight, not sitting or stooped.
•    Take the time to measure your dog: do not imagine the size.

Simple rules before giving dog clothes:

Dog clothes can be a great gift, much appreciated by the pet and by the owner. However, there are some basic rules that you must follow:

•    If the dog is an avid chewer, you should avoid items that contain something tempting: bright buttons, fringes or feathers. Anything that can be chewed and swallowed is a great threat.
•    Get clothes that come between you. Ask the owner for the measurements. If you want Puppy accessories to be a surprise gift, offer to walk the dog. Take a measuring tape. You can also ask friends or family members to help you with the measurements.
•    Finally, make sure the garment is suitable for the dog and the owner.
•    A backpack or sunglasses for dogs would not be appropriate for a toy poodle. How does the owner like to dress his pet? Do you put accessories? Does the dog normally wear clothes? Has the owner ever told you how he feels about dog clothes? These are all good questions to ask and think about before you go out and make a special purchase of dog clothes.

Treat dog clothes like children's clothes:

General advice when buying dog clothes:

•    Dogs get wet and dirty. Therefore, so will your clothes. If you do not buy something that can be washed in the washing machine, you will regret it.
•    If the clothes are to be washed constantly, make sure the fabric does not shrink or resist repeated washing.
•    Do not forget the slit in the back for the strap. This is very important if you are going to buy custom clothes.
•    The garment should be easy to put on and take off. Everyone will be happy.
So if you want to take your pet on a walk with style, these are some of the tips to consider.
