"They are a little tight for my beagle and dachshund but I know they will stretch a little after a few wearings"

"It’s a great jacket and the quality is good. Nice and bright. However it is fleece lined which I couldn’t originally tell from the pictures, and I wanted something lighter. Cute jacket otherwise."
