"perfect fit! my dog loved It and It looked great. only problem was one of the foot parts did not have an elastic so It did not stay on."

β€” Cooper

"$4 could've gone to a bag of treats. I shouldn't have ordered this already seeing that Rubie's has a lot of bad reviews. I ordered a Large, and it's about the size of a small. I couldn't even imagine ordering a small. A small would probably be too small for a newborn puppy. Very misleading"

Bottom Line

Rubie's Ghost Dog & Cat Set is a great bargain for the price but falls short on quality and sizing, especially when purchasing for larger pets.
