Shirts for my dog Lizzie

I drafted a pattern for a pullover shirt for my dog Lizzie.  I used these notes (http://www.barlowscientific.com/technotes/home/sweater.html) as a reference which are quite helpful.


Here's my first one using an old T-shirt with the words "dog rule" on the front.
 Lizzie approves.


I did a bit of tweaking to tighten and raise the neck a bit as well as tightening the torso a bit too for this one.  It was made of left over fleece.  I used sock cuffs for the sleeves as I didn't have quite enough fleece.  The socks worked really well.
I'm not sure if I'll leave the pattern alone now or tweak it more.
