How do I get my dog to wear a dress without being scared of it

Not every dog will tolerate wearing clothing, so if your dog is scared of a dress I would not put a dress on your dog. It isn’t a natural behavior for them to wear clothing so some will not tolerate it. If you are determined you can try getting them used to the clothing by just using it as an item they can lay with/by and giving them treats whenever they approach/touch the dress. You can also try starting smaller with bandanas or a t shirt and giving lots of rewards if your dog tolerates this.
