Pet owners can now sport matching apparel with their furry friend thanks to the new Disney pet collection. The line includes many ultra-chic sweaters with fan-favorite pups including Lady from 'Lady and the Tramp,' Charles Muntz’s golden retriever Dug from 'Up,' Prince Eric’s English sheepdog Max, German shepherd Bolt, and notably, Source Sultan, the footstool dog from 'Beauty and Beast.'
For the colder weather, fans can also snag a denim jacket featuring some of the adorable dogs from '101 Dalmatians.' The Disney pet collection also features doggy-themed dishware including matching mugs and dog bowls, in addition to dog collars and dog balls -- all of which are decorated with the brand's dog characters.
The adorable pet collection will launch in Disney retailers and online beginning Monday, July 29.
