The other day I saw a tramp in Islington who had dressed his dog in a children's puffer jacket. It looked so good that my friend Lisa gave him a whole £5 note. Bear in mind we were on a on a night out and this was valuable drinking money.
This made me realise that while there might be multiple brands selling customised dog outfits, we're far better dressing our four legged friends in our own hand me downs. They're a man's best friend after all and what best friends don't share clothes?
I have collected some examples to show you what I mean, starting with the two above from the Pooch Parade in Dallas.
No person could look quite as cool as these Shar-Pei's do in matching stripes and baseball caps.
Think twice before binning that Hawaiian shirt from yesteryear.
OK I'm cheating here as I think these might be personalised dogs puffer coats but you can achieve something similar with your own nineties cast-offs. Anyone remember Eisenegger?

Dogs look so good in our clothes that we've even started asking them to model to sell designs to humans like this guy above posing in a hoody for band The Midnight Beast. The 1,662 Facebook likes says it all.
But the fun doesn't stop there. Not only can your dog wear your clothes but you can wear your dog thanks to these photo realist T-shirts from The Mountain T-shirt Store.
It's my birthday in July everyone...
Alternatively you can go all out and cover yourself in every breed going like this proud looking man.
Or simply settle for a rucksack like this tapestry one I bought on Amazon. I'm contemplating buying the matching suitcase but it might be taking it too far.
