"So Cute Obsessed ... It’s a little big on her i probably could have gotten a medium for her but its so cute and really brings back some great childhood memories!"
"I loved this costume for my dog ... There was no chance it was fitting so I gave it to my father in law for their Weimaraner puppy who’s about 60 lbs and it kind of fit. I would love if this company would make bigger sizes for bigger dogs. Thanks."
Bottom Line
While the costume is charming and brings back childhood memories, the sizing and durability problems limit its practicality. It's best suited for short photo sessions rather than extended wear.
