Does anybody know the name of the company/website that makes those hooded jumpers with breed transfers on the front and sometimes a slogan on the pouch pocket saying 'my dog walks all over me'?

Ive had mine for a few years but a friend would like one now - I know they normally attend quite a few champ shows but could do with ordering online.

i'm sorry but................clothes are for humans NOT dogs:confused:

I think that the OP is talking about human jumpers as they are talking about HOODED jumpers. Sorry I can't help. Our breed rescue does our clothing. Hopefully someone will be able to help. :)

Well Jwilson, try telling that to my sister's Cavalier who has 5 coats of differing styles & loves to wear them, she goes wild when they come out of the cupboard.  worse things in this world that a dog with coats/clothes on, it's not hurting the dog is it?

This is what I thought until my boy got a terrible cold and bladder infection a couple of times..... it all stopped after my vet advised me to buy a coat for him. He now has 2 coats, one for cold winter mornings and one for rainy nights :cool: ........ I also can NOT imagine my friend's Whippets without coats in the winter. If it's raining you won't even get them out of the house unless they're wearing them!! I guess they really do feel the cold!!
So, NO clothes are not only for humans..... many dogs I know simply have to wear them. I'd rather look silly than visiting my vet every 2 weeks!!

My Papillon and Cavalier simply won't go outside at all this time of year unless they have a coat on, they really feel the cold and shake if left without one. And they aren't treated like little lap dogs, they've always been treated like any other dog of mine so are in no way whatsoever spoilt.

Somebody pointed me in the direction of 'kennelcraft' but their website is no longer. Any ideas how to contact them?

Sorry JWILSON , but dogs can wear clothes. My French Bulldog is very thin coated and feels the chill, he has a sweater that keeps him warm. We waited for 2 hours at a dog show before we went in the ring, without that sweater he would have been quite chilly.  I dont agree so much in cosmetic clothing like sunglasses etc but if its for a genuine purpose then the dog should have its coat / sweater on. What about thin coated breeds such as the whippet, greyhound, chinese crested, they do need a little help to keep warm.

Sorry i didnt mean this post to turn into a debate about whether dogs should wear clothes or not!!

Just an update - I have ordered the hoodie from cafepress.com. Thanks to all who sent pm's with ideas :)  (Thats one christmas present out of the way!!)

My Dobe boy loves wearing his jumper when it's chilly :D I hadn't even thought about getting him a coat/jumper but during his first winter I noticed that whenever we stopped on a walk (at traffic lights, to have a chat with someone, etc) his thighs would quiver wildly and he'd tuck his bum right down and look generally miserable! When he sees me coming with his jumper he sticks his neck right out and lifts one of his front legs off the ground to assist me putting it on him :D This year I've got him one of those equafleece jumpers which fit his build brilliantly.

My MIL used to make her husband take his jumper off to give to their Great Dane. He loved it!
