Aren’t they cute?! Thanks for sharing, Mary-Louise! xo
Update: And just like that, that quick, one DIYShowOff reader has already raided her closet and a few minutes later, her sweet chihauhaus are cozy and warm! This is Phoebe & Sable.
#Snood dog professional#
You don’t have to be a professional seamstress, just a few simple stitches. If your dog is larger, try sewing a larger version using a stretchy fabric and by looking at the shape of a shirtsleeve and the size of your dog. Please supervise your snood-wearing pooch. Awe, baby! Or is that granny? Too cute either way!Īnd for those concerned about safety, Rosie only wears her snood under adult supervision. Rosie mostly wears them as infinity scarves over her collar but when it’s cold, I pull it up over her ears for her outdoor potty breaks. The smaller cuff area rests closest to her ears and top of her head, the larger part of the sleeve sits at her shoulders. If it’s too bulky, remove and cut the sleeve shorter. I snoodle her by putting her head through the larger part of the snood first (the side I cut), letting it naturally bunch around her neck/collar area. Well, maybe minus the money you’ll need to replace your wardrobe if you go crazy.
#Snood dog free#
That’s $3.00 for 4 snoods! Or FREE if you end up cutting up shirts from your own closet. I paid 1.50 for size large shirts from the thrift shop. If using a sweater, you may have to hem the larger cut side of the sleeve to prevent un-raveling. Ta-da! The easiest DIY no-sew dog snood ever! Then simply cut the sleeve off near the armpit area/where the shirt meets the shoulder. Got that? Italian Greyhounds have VERY small heads so this is perfect for Rosie.ģ. It should be loose fitting but not so loose it’s hanging. Make sure the cuff area stretches enough to go over your dog’s head comfortably.
Shop your closet or thrift shop for a stretchy long-sleeved knit shirt or thermal shirt (this type works best as it won’t unravel or need hemmed).Ģ. I’ve seen dog snoods for sale but my DIY-eye saw the opportunity for a super easy tutorial where I could choose the patterns and colors for a lot less than $12+ each and not have to wait for (or pay for) delivery.ġ. In the most common form, the headgear resembles a close-fitting hood worn over the back of the head. Snood: (/snuːd/, rhymes with ‘f ood‘, not ‘w ood‘) is historically a type of European female headgear, or in modern times a tubular neck scarf. While I was doing some online shopping, I came across something called a “snood”. So you can imagine winter time = sweaters, pajamas, coats. Even if it’s summer time, she’s burrowed under her blankets on the couch in the a/c. Needless to say, she’s not a happy to be walking in a winter wonderland type girl (she’s so much like me). Our Italian Greyhound, Rosie, has very little body fat and very short fur. Have a small dog? This is the easiest tutorial!
