Does your dog get scared during a storm? Does your pet turn to anxiety while fireworks are being shot off? Or, does your dog have separation anxiety? Well, with the 4th of July right around the corner, here is a quick, easy, custom-tailored crochet thunder jacket pattern designed to function as an adjustable anxiety wrap.

Conventional free dog sweater patterns are worked in the round or use loose pullover stitches, which will not provide the compression your dog (Cavapoo) needs. This original pattern uses dense Single Crochet stitches worked flat to create an adjustable, three-panel "swaddle wrap" that fastens snugly with sew-on Velcro.

(This thunder jacket pattern was written with a Cavapoo in mind. So, everything in italics is my notes for my Cavapoo's jacket. If you do not have this specific dog, don't worry about following these measurements or notes. If the note is in italics and underlined, then it is a note you need to read and follow.)
