The cardigan alteration is made for long sleeve tees and sweaters

It is to help make putting tees on and off easier for those hounds who don't like having the legs touched or lifted and for amputees. 

This is an adjustment only - tee not included and must also be ordered.
Please allow up to 10 working days for your order to be altered and dispatched.

To put on: Undo all snaps. Pop tee on ground, step leg(without snaps) in and pull up and over the head, then down the side with snaps. Snap the side up. We only recommend this on the cotton spandex styles.

    To undo: We use industrial strength press studs for this adjustment, so they are super strong, however, please do not use too much force to undo them, or pull them open from the fabric. Due to this you may find them a little harder to undo. This can reduce the lifespan of the studs, or pull them off the fabric. We recommend using your fingers to hold it right at the stud and gently pull them apart. 

    To order: Add this into your order along with the tees you want to order. If you have ordered multiply tees and want the adjustment on all of them, make sure you add the same quantity of adjustments to the order. If you order multiple tees but only want the adjustment on certain ones, please let us know what tee you want it added to in the notes section in your checkout cart. 

    If you are still unsure if the cardigan alteration is for you, email us at aroo@houndtees.com.au

    How to Measure:

    Chest

    Measure your hound around their chest under the front legs. Do this snugly as this is a fitted garment and will stretch to fit your hound neatly.

    Length

    Measure length from the crook of their neck with their head raised to the start of the tail. Imagine there is an invisible line at their backside and measure to that point.

    Tees are made in stretch fabrics so they fit snug. Sweater styles are designed to be a looser fit for layering.

    Fitting Tips

    Fit based on your doggos chest measurement. If your doggo is bordering on two sizes, size up.

    Please note:  Sweaters are approximately  2 in / 5 cm larger in the chest. Fleece and sweater styles are designed to be worn looser or over a cotton spandex tee. 

    Warmth Factor 1: Sleeveless Tees
    A light, breathable layer for slight chills or sun protection. Perfect for hounds who dislike sleeves or for wearing under other gear.

    Warmth Factor 2: Long Sleeve Tees
    Offers more coverage for cooler days. A lightweight and cosy choice for lounging or casual walks.

    Warmth Factor 3: Tweaters
    The perfect in-between layer for transitioning seasons, made from midweight French terry cotton.

    Warmth Factor 2.5 - 4: Long Johns
    Full-body coverage for colder weather and overnight sleeping. Warmth varies as they're made from tee, tweater, or sweater fabric.

    Warmth Factor 4: Sweaters
    A cosy outer layer for cold days and outdoor adventures. Designed to fit perfectly over any other Hound-Tees style.

    Warmth Factor 5: Winter Weight
    Our warmest option. Heavyweight 340g fabric provides the ultimate defence against the cold.

    Don't forget to accessorise!
    Add a cute hound snood for extra warmth and style.

    Will it fit?

    Check the size before you add

    One tape measure around the deepest part of the chest, just behind the front legs. Snug, not tight.

    Chest is the number that matters

    Between sizes?

    Tees and long sleeves: go down. Sweaters are roomier for layering: go up.

    Questions, answered

    How do I put a Hound-Tee on?

    Head first, then one front leg at a time. The neck stretches more than it looks. Thirty seconds and a treat, and most hounds stop noticing it's on.

    Does my hound actually need one?

    Sighthounds have thin coats, no body fat and skin that chafes. A tee takes the edge off cold mornings and sun, and stops the harness rubbing.

    Can I get it altered?

    Yes. Tick alterations above the add to cart button and tell us what you need. Allow up to 10 working days before it ships.

    How do I wash it?

    Cold machine wash, air dry. No dryer, no iron on the print.
