I put a lot of items on my dog – a lot of them homemade knitted objects. He’s a good sport, though you can tell by his face that he is doing it only because he loves me. Currently I am working on knitting his Halloween costume – it was an ambitious project and I should have focused on it more previously – not just this past week. It should be ok though, so I’m not worried too much.
At target today I did find the astronaut costume! I was so excited – a back-up costume, just in case. I bought the small size (for dogs with 10in – 13in neck to tail length) – there weren’t any mediums. I cut it off the hang tag board and pop it on the dog. It’s a disaster. 
There’s no way his back legs can fit into those leg sleeves. Now that I look at the corgi model closer it doesn’t look like his legs are in there either – they are not velcroed shut. I could live with that, but being a dachshund he’s endowed in the chest area and it barely stays velcroed there. Anyone interested in buying it from me? $9.99. I’ll trade for yarn or books (check out my amazon wishlist even)….
Now the pressure is on and I really need to bust out the original idea!
Oh I’m sorry it doesn’t fit because it’s such a cool costume! My dogs are too big for it.
My little doxie girl is only 7 lbs. What is the chest measurement on the astronaut costume? I have a little devil costume that would fit Jackson. Pics are on my other blog from last year.
Your dog is such a good sport. why not try one of these costumes?http://www.funnyphotos.net.au/dog-costume/
He is such a cooperative model.
That is still such a great costume even if it doesn’t fit right.Jackson looks like he is ready to soar up the stars!I am going to post a picture anyway of this costume too because he is just so adorable!
