Long-Necked Dog Is The Perfect Model For Turtleneck Handmade Sweaters
Hazel is not your average winter dog. The silken Windhound has a closet full of handmade turtlenecks, and she wears them like she was born for the runway.
Her mom, May, says Hazel is a true long dog, with a long body, long neck, long nose, and what she jokingly calls linguine legs. That shape makes turtlenecks a natural fit, and the outfits are as practical as they are cute.
From cozy cold-weather layers to full-on Instagram style, Hazel has turned dog sweaters into her signature look.
Windhounds don’t have a thick undercoat and have a low percentage of body fat, making them sensitive to low temperatures. Hazel can get cold easily, and her clothes protect her during the fall and winter.
Because sighthounds like Hazel are so thin, they really benefit from wearing clothes in the colder months. Now that it’s getting warmer, she only wears them to take photos and spends most of her days running around naked!
Hazel may look all fancy in her outfits, but she is just a happy, friendly girl.
She’s genuinely got the sweetest personality of almost any dog I’ve ever met. She’s incredibly extroverted and loves every single person and dog she meets. If I don’t let her greet everyone we pass on the sidewalk, she acts like it’s a tragedy.

Hazel has become a sort of fashion influencer on Instagram and has managed to bring turtlenecks back in style. But the adorable dog looks good in just about anything.
Hazel is honestly the perfect dog in terms of being fun to dress. She’s got these wildly long proportions, and her black coat means that she looks good in pretty much any color.
She’s also quite a good model, because she gets paid for her work with treats.
