Most clothes at petco fit smaller large dogs but they don’t fit my 2 dogs.
1 weighs 71 and the other weighs 110(should weigh 88lbs).

Petco shouldn’t be the only place to get clothes. You can make them from old sweaters, just make something old your own. I have made some for my standard poodle who is roughly 75 lbs. and I just used old sweaters and fix them up. Put jewels on them and just make them look unique! Just try to find something that you think would be good, and let your imagination take place.
Another think you could try is asking a manager at Petco if you don’t like to make things. Some people get frustrated with making thinks, but ask a manager or somebody that works at Petco and see if they have anything to mail in. My chihuahua is so small she sometimes doesn’t fit into clothes, and my sweaters are too big (duh) so I mail things in from Petco that are just her size =D

Shop online or check out specialty/local pet stores. Just google “pet stores” and your city and the yellowpages website should bring up a list of them all. Most have websites where you can order stuff.

no offense but i despise pet clothes especially on a dog big enough to bite off your face i just look at them and wonder “what are you waiting for”

Don’t know, but if you like to sew or have a grandma that does, google dog clothes patterns and there are some adjustable patterns.
Good Luck

They do, but they are hard to find. I dunno about the 71 lb. and 110 lbs. We have a dog who is probably about 60 lbs. and we are having a hard time finding dog clothes for her. You could put human clothes on her. We’ve done that before. She loves dressing up! You can look online for dog clothes too. I’ve seen lots of different sites with different sizes listed. Old Navy Dog supply is one place to try. Our dog has a jacket from there and she loves wearing it when she goes out.

I’d check Petsmart and Wag Stores and even Amazon, because they’re three other reputable stores for doggy products and apparel, but you might be able to buy clothes for people and use them for your doggies. My boxer/lab can’t go outside in the snow too long without a coat, so we ended up just buying a people-hoodie for him and just rolling up the sleeves a little.
Another thing is, if your dog is obese or a loose-skinned dog (like a Shar-Pei or Saint Bernard or other dogs of the sort) , you may not want to dress it up. Remember, dogs don’t sweat like people do, and therefore run the risk of overheating much easier than you would think, even in doggy t-shirts. Its always better to have your dog safe rather than fashionable!

I have only seen wet weather jackets for large breed dogs. I have one when the weather is really wet so that at least some of him comes back home dry.
I wouldn’t ever think of putting clothes on a large breed dog unless it was for fun at a fancy dress dog competition, which is when most people make their costumes…
Each to their own though, most large breed dogs are hardy enough to cope without clothes or just a jacket in the death of winter..

I haven’t seen too many of them. They don’t get cold as easily as small dogs, so they might not have such a need for clothing.

You can just use little kid clothes. I put sweatshirts on my lab.
