Winter is approaching and it's already getting a bit cold out for Gemma in the nude. I only have a dress for her but it's too big. It's an XS in the Ruff Ruff brand that Elaine sells so I guess she needs smaller than that.

Gemma is 2.7lbs and 6.5 months. Her chest is 9 inches just behind her legs and her neck is 7 inches. She basically hasn't grown at all for 2.5 months so I'm not concerned with buying her something with lots of room to grow into. I need something that will fit her now.

If anyone has anything for sale and can ship to Sweden, I'd love to see! I'm looking for sweaters or dresses with little short sleeves as opposed to the sleeveless styles. Gemma is really good at getting her legs out of the sleeveless stuff.

if you'd like , i can order you a ruff ruff couture hoodie in size XXS for Gemma.
for girls, i can get the Ellie Hoodie, or the My Baby Hoodie. All XXS is 11.00 plus shipping and in EUC.
there are other hoodies that are designed for boys i can get.. to me , they look like for boys or girls. like the plaid fashion school one, the red dot one w/ cake on it, or the Ricky hoodie thats a turquois color.
the hoodies all have little cap sleeves. here's a pic of it being sold at a boutique

** i would have to know soon though , cause i'm putting order in soon and i cant just order one or two things... well i can but it'lll cost me extra.. but i am already putting in an order for some more flannel jammie tops and a few more ruff ruff things


Ellie/Elliot Hoodie - Dog Shirts - GlamourDog.com

LS bought one for Bella in pink... theres a pic of her in it somewhere.
i think it would fit Gemma but would be a little roomy.

I totally adore that pink Ellie Hoodie! I would love to put an order in for an XXS. You think the XXS would be good? It says for dogs under 2.5lbs on the site, but I bought Gemma that XS Leopard Ruff Ruff dress from you before which we got for her when she was 10 weeks and she still has not grown into it. I'm not sure if that one in particular runs big. I can basically get the neck hole of that thing over her entire body, and she pulls her arms up into the chest part as soon as she tries to walk.

LS bought the Ellie hoodie for Bella and i think she was happy with it.. wish she were around to give her opinion cause Bella and Gemma are close in weight.
i think the XXS would fit her. the size chart i think says XS would be 3 to 4 pounds i think , so XXS would be too big. some things do run bigger than others.. that leopard one i think did run roomy.

my Latte weighs 3 pounds 2 ounces and takes an XS.. but Latte has a thicker neck and shorter legs. Gemma looks like she is built more delicate. Thats how my Minnie is built except she is bigger. thin neck and longer legs ...

Okay, thank you. I do believe Gemma is just about the same weight as Bella. Gemma has a very delicate frame. She's got some legs, but she is very slender as opposed to the shorter and more stout build.

So we will take an XXS then! The XS does sound too big since it says it fits dogs between 3-4lbs and she's not even 3lbs.

Miya and I are going to petsmart tomorrow to check out their warm clothes for the season. Might be tough finding something to fit her, butcha never know. If I find something, I'll take a picture and send it to you and if you want it, I'll mail it to you. Does petsmart ship there?

Actually, I think they do ship here, but their prices for international shipping are outrageous. I know it does not cost that much because when the other girls here have sent me thing, the shipping has been about $4!

That would be really sweet of you. I would love to see what they have. Gemma would likely be an XXS in anything.

She seems to be an XXS most of the time. Her measurements are 9 inches around her chest just under her armpits and 7 inches around her neck. She's 2.7 lbs and has a very slender build. I would love to see pics. :) If they are from a specific brand, maybe I can look it up online and see if they have a sizing chart.

OK here you go, they were from Pet Co and the brand is Max's closet. the necks measure about 8" the sleeves are 3 1/2" long, the girth is 9" the length from the bottom of the hood to the end of garment is 5 1/2" and the hood is 4" tall.
They have 3 Velcro snaps at the belly and drawstring hoods. They also have the little opening in the back for a harness ring.
If you would like 1 or both pm me, if not that's OK too I'm was going to put them on eBay anyway.

Thank you for posting pics! I looked up the brand but they only seem to have XS listed in their size chart. You said those are XXS, right? If they are XS they would definitely be too big because those are for dogs that are 3-4 lbs. But I think I'm going to hold off for now anyway since Elaine is going to be able to get that Ruff Ruff Ellie hoodie in a week or so. I really wanted that one. I'm slightly broke so I shouldn't splurge too much. However, I appreciate the offer very much. Those hoodies are both really cute. They look like little baby jackets!

Thats ok, Im going to put them up on ebay, Thought I would offer them to you before I do. Yes they are XXS.
Okay, thanks again for the offer. Good luck with selling them! I'm sure someone will buy them for that price. Quite a deal considering what that brand costs new.

i also have here one carebear hoodie i could sell you in size XS. its blue, those are 10.00

Here is Bella in that Carebear hoodie. :) It is loose, but does shrink in the
wash and ends up fitting better.


Also Caitlin, here are some pictures of Ruff Ruff xxs clothes so you could see
how they fit. Bella is 2 pounds and 7 oz......so almost 2 and a half pounds.
Hope it helps. Everything fits perfectly, except the xxs tiger dress, it's too
loose.

...darn something is wrong with Photobucket, it's not letting me upload.
I'll try again in a little while.
