Celebrating the Great Outdoors ~ The Midwest Sweater Vest!

Happy Thursday everyone!

Archie and I are so excited to release a new addition to the Born In The USA Collection!


Introducing...


The New Midwest Design!


Midwest

Green, Brown, Black Variegated body / Orange bobbles / Orange collar





It is inspired by our friends, The Slimmer Pugs, who live in the Midwest and asked which would be the best vest for them.


Archie and I giggled when I realized I neglected to design a sweater vest for the very part of the country I grew up in!


The Midwest Sweater Vest is inspired by the LOVE of the great outdoors!


The favorite weekend activities where I grew up were hunting and fishing so what could be better than a Green, Brown, Black and Bright Orange Sweater Vest! :)


The Midwest and many other vests are listed in my Etsy Shop and ready to ship today!


If you do not see the one you want...


I would love to make you your very own dog sweater vest too!


Please contact me anytime with any questions or to place an order.

Woofie Warmer Dog Neck Warmers are comfy and warm for dogs of ALL sizes!


When ordering your Woofie Warmer, I just need to know your dog's

So I will take a Beauty Nap and wake up all wrinkly!


What are some other ways I can get deep wrinkles and folds?
