Slings, Dogs and Kimono

I had never thought of dogs wearing kimono before. How unusual! What attention to detail. Thanks to CrazyMnM85

I came across this because I saw some slings for pets in Ito Yokado last week and not being a dog owner was quite interested in the ‘invention’. Perhaps they have been around for a long time?

If your pet is just a baby or rather small perhaps and you worry about it getting tired or lost, you might consider something like this?

I discussed the slings with a colleague and was pointed in the direction of this website – not only can you buy slings and but wow! you can dress the dogs in kimono. These are special and further details look like they can be found at Gramercypet.

I had not realised there was a huge market for kimono wear for dogs and some fantastic pictures of the doggies in costume online as well. Wow!

Good shot
