Three laws of dog fashion

Useful first, cute second, ridiculous only when everyone can still breathe, walk, pee, and maintain dignity. Well, most dignity.

Measure the chest first. Breed names lie. Tape measures are boring but honest.

No chewable decorations. Buttons are cute until they become surprise snacks.
