Dog Wedding Outfit Tips For Success
Making sure your furry friend shines on your wedding day while sporting that cute outfit involves a few doggone important tips.
Above all, consider their comfort—opt for outfits that don’t cramp their style or limit their zoomies.
Second, start the training early! Make sure you reward them with treats or belly rubs, so they associate their fancy attire with good vibes.
A little rehearsal can go a long way, helping them get into the role like a true pro.
Most importantly, make sure to keep an eye out for tiny parts or materials that might lead to an impromptu chew session. You do not want to rush to the ER because your dog swallowed his bow tie!
Opt for good-quality fabrics that don’t make them itch or are ‘ruff’ on their skin. Assign a dog-savvy pal to watch over them during the hullabaloo, ensuring potty breaks, playtime, and treat time are all on the agenda.
Don’t forget to capture those “aww”-worthy moments on camera.
And remember, wagging tails and puppy smiles are the ultimate indicators of a successful dog wedding outfit!
