The photographer, DonnitaMae, says:
This is Miss Sarie's dress for this year's St. Patrick's Fun Dog Show. Last year she won for the best Irish Costume. That is the premo sought after category in the show! So this year we had to top last year's costume!
The dress material is a wool crepe gabardine. The bodice is lined in a green satin and the skirt is lined in the green sparkle material. I added a camisole that is lined with green fleece and has the green sparkle material on the outside. Her neckline and sleeves are trimmed in malibu boa. She is royalty for sure!
I resized the dress pattern and didn't consider the neckline. It caused the neck to be too big. So instead of starting over, I just made the camisole. It will add warmth for her when we go to the contest on March 3rd.
The 21st Annual St. Patrick’s Day Fun Dog Show was held on Saturday, March 3rd at Market Square in Old Town. Some of the competition categories have traditionally included: Dog with Best Irish Costume, Owner/Dog with the Most Similar Hair (natural only please!), Most Unusual Markings, Smallest Ears, Biggest Feet, Best Spots, Longest Nose, Most Unique/Disproportionate Appearance (Head to Body to Legs), Most Unusual Tail, and Most Mysterious Heritage. This event is held in conjunction with the Ballyshaner’s St. Patrick’s Day parade.

That dog looks like it has had a few too many pints.
