You put it on backwards so that his tail goes through the neck and his back legs go through the arms. Gather up the rest of the t-shirt and either tie a knot in it if you have enough material or twist it up and tie it with an elastic band or something similar.Aoj and The Lurchershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01509080861414248189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3462787118668544142.post-85695006880244709252008-03-22T02:36:00.000+00:002008-03-22T02:36:00.000+00:00Oh my gosh, that look on his face in the cone is s...Oh my gosh, that look on his face in the cone is so pathetic and so adorable.
