Where do you all buy inexpensive clothes that fit your tiny Chis?

Title is self explanatory. My baby is about 5-6 pounds and it’s so hard to find clothes that fit her. They are either really expensive brands or a complete gamble on size when I order online.

Thanks in advance. Much love to my fellow Chi community. ❤️❤️❤️

Sir Kevin is seen here modeling pajamas from Fitwarm. Their size XS fits his 5.5 lb frame perfectly. I wouldn’t call them cheap exactly but they have lots of sales and Kevin just has a few outfits to get him through the few cold spells in Texas.

I think Kevin’s very cute & I love his name! Our Chi has a human name too!

Kevin is super cute 😍 do his front legs come out when he walks around? I can rarely find a fit good enough to prevent Monty from getting tangled up.

Thanks, he knows he is adorable! 😂

He’s never had problems walking out of their PJs, much to his frustration. Although come to think of it one time we was wearing these PJs, went in his blanket pile, and came out without them on. No rustling or anything, rolling around or whatever… just like magic. I don’t blame the fit or Fitwarm, I blame Chi magic 😉

A dress. I have a chihuahua blog/youtube channel and my daughter planned a princess skit for the dog's to perform. I made a princess, jester and knight costume.

All the skits are on their own playlist. :) The one my daughter wrote out and dictated is "Saving the Dog Princess" in all its wobbly glory haha

In person only? Or have y’all had luck online? I’m so far from civilization

If an online seller tells you the dog dimensions their sizes will fit, take the time to measure your pup’s chest, neck and length. Weight means nothing.

We’ve had great success with Gooby. Direct or on Amazon.

lol I actually cut 2 small holes in a small women’s ankle sock for my baby when I first got her. That might work for you!

IDK where you live, but we have a store called DDs Discounts. I've bought clothes, coats, and jammies for my 4 pound chi puppy there. The most I ever paid was $8.99 for a Peanuts Christmas hoodie but most extra small clothes are between $3.99-$6.99 . They even had jammies for my 100 pound dog for $9.99. IDK if they have an online store.

Well I'm in Northern California. I know they gave them throughout California, but I don't know if they are in other States. If you look online DDs Discounts has a website where you can look up your closest store. I'm lucky enough I have one a block from my house.

I just learned they are owned by Ross, so you might be able to find some inexpensive dog clothes on their website or store.

Your welcome! I had a 3lb chihuahua who passed away at 14, so I know how hard it can be to find clothes that fit and aren't expensive.

Fitwarm on Amazon was recommended by someone else here and I love their styles so much! Trouble is wearing an XS here, she's about 6lbs.

Amazon has a lot of things that fit my 5 lb and 6 1/2 lb babies. There's a brand called Lophipets that makes smaller sizes, but I have found lots of other stuff that fits them too.

I’ve had some luck on Amazon, I have a 5.5 and 7 pounder. Sometimes they are too small and sometimes too big. We should start a clothes trading group lol

We really should 😂 my last batch order on Amazon was exactly that. A mix of just right and way too damn big.
