It is made by the same place that makes the flight suit but it is the 'junior hoodie'. I thought if i get him used to wearing things, really being HANDLED like that, it will make it easier to transition him to a harness if i get him one to go out in the spring and summer for walks.
This was a quick trial of the hoodie.....he was fine having me put it on him but then acted like they act when wrapped in a towel and hardly moved, so i took it right back off within a minute or two. We'll try in short spans like that and see how he does. Maybe he will get used to it, maybe not, but at least he wasn't freaked out.
My hope is to get him comfortable enough in it to get cute Christmas Card pics. :)

so tonight i figured out what he didn't like about the hoodie (the hood was obscuring his field of vision and he was weirded out). I folded the hood down and he is completely fine wearing it. He's had it on all evening, playing happily.

I was thinking of ordering one of those for Darcy. I got him a flight suit and he hates it though. Maybe this would be more comfortable.

I am hoping this will 'transition' him to a flight suit or harness so he can go outside 'freely' with me in the spring.
They make such cute and easy-to-put-on 'clothing'.
