Classic Knit Dog Sweater for Small Dogs in 5 Solid Colors

Tiny dogs feel the cold first. When a Chihuahua starts shivering on a fall walk, or a Yorkie refuses to leave the couch in January, a sweater makes a real difference. This classic knit dog sweater slips on as a simple pullover. It comes in five solid colors, with sizes from XS for the tiniest pups up to XXL for small dogs around 16 lbs.

A Warm Layer for Small Dogs

Toy and small breeds have less body mass to hold heat, and many have thin or short coats, so chilly air reaches them quickly. A knit sweater adds a soft layer over the back and chest. It helps on morning walks, in drafty homes, and during winter car rides.

The classic solid design keeps it versatile. It looks sharp on its own and is simple enough to layer under a dog winter coat on the coldest days.

How to Find the Right Size

Measure around the widest part of your dog's chest, just behind the front legs. Then measure the back length from the base of the neck to the base of the tail. Choose your size by chest measurement first, and use back length and weight to confirm.

Size	Back Length	Chest	Dog Weight
XS	8.3 in (21 cm)	7.9–9.1 in (20–23 cm)	1.1–2.2 lb (0.5–1 kg)
S	10.2 in (26 cm)	9.8–11.4 in (25–29 cm)	2.2–4.4 lb (1–2 kg)
M	12.6 in (32 cm)	11.8–13.0 in (30–33 cm)	4.4–6.6 lb (2–3 kg)
L	14.2 in (36 cm)	13.0–14.2 in (33–36 cm)	6.6–9.9 lb (3–4.5 kg)
XL	15.8 in (40 cm)	15.4–16.5 in (39–42 cm)	9.9–12.1 lb (4.5–5.5 kg)
XXL	17.3 in (44 cm)	16.9–18.1 in (43–46 cm)	12.1–16.5 lb (5.5–7.5 kg)

A Simple Gift for Small Dog Lovers

A cozy sweater is an easy, useful gift for anyone with a Chihuahua, Yorkie, or Pomeranian. Red is a natural choice for holiday photos, while black, gray, and white go with everything. Pair it with a new leash or toy for a thoughtful gift for a small dog owner.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this sweater fit a Dachshund?

It can fit a miniature Dachshund, but check the back length carefully, since Dachshunds are long for their chest size. Standard Dachshunds usually have chests wider than the XXL's 18.1 inches.

What size should I choose for a growing puppy?

Choose one size up so the sweater still fits as your puppy grows. A slightly roomy fit is better than one that becomes tight across the chest in a few weeks.
