Dog T-Shirts
Dog T-shirts solve a specific problem: lightweight coverage for warm weather that protects thin-coated or sun-sensitive dogs without trapping heat the way a hoodie or sweater would. Chocolate Peanut makes dog T-shirts for dogs who run warm or live in climates where a full sweater is too much, but a bare coat is not quite right. Each T-shirt is handmade and one of a kind, cut from fabrics chosen for softness and breathability.

Why Buy T-Shirts for Your Dog?
Our dog T-shirts serve dogs who need light coverage without the warmth of a hoodie, working equally well as a standalone piece or a layer during transitional weather. Short-coated breeds like French bulldogs benefit from a lightweight shirt that protects skin outdoors without causing overheating. Each T-shirt is cut for a comfortable fit through the body, with neck and leg openings proportioned for full movement. Browse the full selection on our online dog clothing store. T-shirts sit alongside every other season in our handmade dog apparel. Shoppers looking for the full range of warm-weather options will find pullovers and bandanas in our summer dog clothes.
Shop Our Catalog
Every one of our dog T-shirts was made by a founder who has been dressing her own dogs since before most dog apparel brands existed. A T-shirt from our studio is not a screen-printed blank; it is a handmade piece produced with the same care as every sweater and hoodie in the catalog. The dog, the decades, and the maker behind it all come together in our story. Find a T-shirt that fits your dog’s size and the season ahead, and order now.

MY FAVORITE SWEATER: The “My Favorite Sweater” has been a signature product since 2008, and is one of the most comfortable sweaters on the market. In 2008, a knitter I had met at a yarn shop in Connecticut who lived in Maine worked with me and helped my sweater design become a reality—a knitted dog sweater inspired by the classic traditional crew sweater. I was staring at one of my old cotton crews thinking that there’s a dog sweater in that. Not seeing anything I had envisioned anywhere, I decided to create a version for dogs. She and I went over several iterations until I was happy with the results. The first sweater prototype was sold later that year. Eventually my knitter retired after I had moved to Rhode Island in 2010. I revamped the site and offered scarves and t-shirts, while looking for someone to continue knitting the sweater. In 2018, I luckily found a skilled knitter in Massachusetts who later moved to Connecticut. Together we reworked the sweater for a better fit, an expanded color palette, and a wider selection of yarns.
HOODIES AND PULLOVERS: In 2021, hoodies and pullovers (turtlenecks) were introduced. The tie-dyed hoodie was the first hoodie to be introduced into the expanded collection of apparel. Batches are hand-dyed and one-of-a-kind. More hoodie designs were added with fun prints, cozy flannels, and baseball-style raglan shirts. Pullovers were added to the collection, made from a various assortmant of fabrics including a super soft French terry, comfy lightweight cotton, sherpa fleece, lush terry cloth, super-soft knits, and a compression material with UV protection.
