Step 2. Prepare Your Fleece

We’ll start with your old fleece pants! You can remove the ribbed cuff unless it’s loose enough for your pup’s head to fit through. If yes, you can just roll it back a few times.

Step 3. Cut Out Holes for Paws

Mark the distance between the front legs on the fabric. Next, cut the openings big enough for paws to fit through.

Step 4. Cut the Fabric on an Angle

Reposition the fabric so the side seams run along each side of your pet. Cut the fabric to get a better measurement on your puppy’s back.

Using back measurement, cut the fabric on a slight angle.

Step 5. Fit the Easy DIY No-Sew Dog Jacket

Now you can try the jacket on your pup. It should be fit just right, comfortable, and allows your pet freedom of movement.
