Some loving owners prefer to dress their pets in the latest fashion. And for the owners of small dogs living in Russia, this is a necessity, otherwise in winter the animal runs the risk of catching a cold. However, it is rare for a dog to dress carefully chosen clothes with joy, while most need to be patiently trained to do so.

Instructions
Step 1
You can train your dog to clothes from three to four months. First, carefully consider the choice of clothing for the dog. It is best if you and your pet go shopping and try on some costumes. After you put the jumpsuit on the dog, give it a walk. See if the clothing is interfering with the animal's movement, rubbing, or if the jumpsuit will prevent the dog from going to the toilet. If you are looking for clothing for a teenage dog, go for a wider suit.
Step 2
If for some reason you could not go to the store with the animal, take measurements from it. You should know the length of the dog from the withers to the base of the tail, the volume of the chest. Do not forget to tell the seller your dog's breed so that he can help you choose the jumpsuit and agree that you can change it if the clothes still do not fit the dog.
Step 3
Once you have chosen the appropriate clothing, start teaching your dog to wear it. Dress your pet at home so that he has the opportunity to take a good look and smell the thing. Let the dog walk around dressed in the apartment, but at this time you should praise it and encourage it with treats. Increase the amount of time your dog spends in clothes each day, starting from 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 4
After the dog calmly walks around the house in a suit, you can take him outside. If your pet loves to go for walks, there will be no problems with clothes, he will get used to it and will be happy as much as he is happy when you put a collar on him. Stock up on a favorite dog treat before your walk to reward your pet.
Step 5
If the dog, dressed in overalls, stands rooted to the spot and does not want to budge, you will have to be patient and walk with it longer. Sooner or later, the dog will still want to use the toilet, and he will have to run to the nearest tree and raise his paw.
