The Striped Base Layer
Soft, stretchy, and made for everyday comfort — a four-legged dog base layer designed for short-haired dogs with sensitive skin.
- Soft, breathable fabric that moves with every step
- Four-legged coverage with an open belly for easy bathroom breaks
- Built-in D-ring for quick leash attachment
- Light enough for fall, easy to layer in winter
- Machine washable
The Details: A snug but never tight fit that stays put through morning zoomies and sofa naps alike. Wear it alone as cozy loungewear, or layer it under our sweaters and coats when the temperature drops.
A Tale in Every Wag.
Size & Fit — How to Measure
Measure your dog standing — tape snug, not tight, with two fingers of room for short coats. Chest decides the size: if it doesn't fit the chest, it doesn't fit. Length is forgiving — a little short is fine. Between sizes? Size up.

Returns & Exchanges
We are a small studio, and every piece is checked by hand before it ships — for this reason, we do not accept returns.
But the right fit matters. If the size isn't right, we offer one free size exchange per order, within 7 days of delivery. Here's how it works:
1. Email us within 7 days of delivery at support@perritale.com
2. Include your order number, a photo of your dog wearing the item, and your dog's measurements (chest, back length, neck)
This quick review lets us recommend the right size with confidence — and keeps exchanges fair for everyone. Items must be unworn (apart from trying on), unwashed, with tags attached.
Choose options
Every tail has a tale.
I have two sons and no daughter — until Coco and Cola came home to keep my boys company, and just like that, I had four children.
Coco, a white Italian Greyhound, became the daughter I never had: the pretty dresses, the little bows, all hers at last. On winter nights, I tuck extra blankets into their small beds and leave a tiny lion to keep them company till morning.
Every piece we choose has to pass one test first — Coco's and Cola's.
