Chilly Dog Red Cable Knit Dog Sweater XX-Large - Warm Winter Outfit for Large Breed Dogs - Perfect for Cold Weather Walks & Outdoor Adventures

My dog Atticus totally LOVES the Chilly Dog sweaters. Great sweaters, well made, hand-knit, all wool as far as we've purchased. I ordered three new Chilly Dog sweaters so my dog would be ready for Autumn. He has a thin fur coat of his own so he gets cold a lot -- definitely a Chilly Dog. When it got cold enough here in Virginia, I decided to put this gorgeous bright red one on Atticus. It's thick and warm but slightly stretchy. He has a wide chest so it's hard to find dog clothing for him. These Chilly Dog sweaters tend to be a bit long but that's ok as long as they fit across his chest and around his abdomen and can cover his bottom when he's lying down.So cut to the chase -- he refused to let me take this sweater off him once it was on. Usually he will let me remove his dog clothing especially if it's rainy outside and we need to switch him over to a raincoat. Well, forget that, every time I tried to take this sweater off, he would wiggle away from me and run away. Once, I was able to take it off to check to be sure it hadn't become unraveled (it hadn't). While I was looking at the sweater, Atticus came back over and put his head the wrong way into the sweater's neck and tried to wiggle into the sweater. He never does that! So back on went the sweater. A second time, with help from Hubby, I was able to remove this sweater to launder it and then once it was dry, Atticus wanted the sweater back on immediately.Let's just say the other two new sweaters and his first Chilly Dog sweater from two years ago MIGHT get some use this Winter. I think he's totally attached to this red one though.My dog Atticus gives FIVE STARS to this beautiful red sweater!!! And so do I.
