Elderly People Prefer Wrap Style Dog Clothes


When talking with senior citizens, many were asked what features they would like to see when it comes to the apparel they buy for their small dogs. The answers they would give you are as follows:
  • They will tell you that it is hard to put the little arms and or legs of a little dog through the legs of little dog clothes and that they are afraid of hurting the dogs. An employee at JoAnn's Fabric stated that she babysits her daughter's Pomeranian and she's always worried about hurting it's little legs when trying to put them through the sleeves.
  • Seniors with arthritis state that they prefer Velcro because they can just push it together when putting on the dog clothes, and pull it apart when taking them off. Buttons, snaps, and zippers are too hard to manage with arthritic fingers.
  • Still others point out that snaps, buttons, and zippers are hard to use because the point of attachment on most of the clothing is on the underside of the dog and unless you are flipping the dog all around, it wouldn't be easy at all.
  • Finally, many seniors will tell you that when they are done walking their dog they need or want to move quickly to get the dog clothing off the dog so they can go do something else.
If you purchase a lot of dog clothing, with and without sleeve, you will find out that you can purchase a wide array of dog clothes in the form of wraps, mainly coats and jackets. You can decide to make your primary focus to make most of your dog clothing in the form of a wrap, when making them for seniors that have dogs.
The recommended starting of making dog clothes would be to make coats and jackets, then it is easy to work with other materials and learn how to make them into shirts. It's a fun experience, there are so many ways to design the wrap. The shirts are so lightweight and comfortable for dogs and you them with and without linings. Although, t is a little more difficult you can make dresses in the wrap design. The dresses are great for summer parties, picnics, family get-togethers, and just about any occasion.
Many people love how easy the dog clothing in the form of wraps are to use. Seniors, or people over the age of 60 love this design.
