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.

Look - he is well dressed

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
