Given the lack of proper clothing that animals (those less anthropomorphic than the CivilizedAnimal tier) can wear without feeling unconfortable, the amount of clothing they can wear usually doesn't exceed the [[AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal accessory-wearing]] or [[HalfDressedCartoonAnimal half-dressed (shirt or other top but no pants or other bottom version)]] tiers.

These clothes and accessories are typically, stereotypically, or sometimes given to nomal animals and their fictional counterparts, the NearlyNormalAnimal, TalkingAnimal (whether [[SpeechImpairedAnimal speech-impaired]] or not), and PartiallyCivilizedAnimal. Sometimes, these garments and accessories can show up in {{Civilized Animal}}s, {{Funny Animal}}s, and PettingZooPeople as well.

The reasons to give animals such accessories (aside from the usual collar and tag for dogs and horseshoes and halter for horses) and partial clothing in media is to make them more unique. People would likely remember a puppy with a tophat instead of a simple puppy. It can also be used to mask the fact more than one dog is used for the same role in a live action show or movie. The audience would remember the accessory and overlook the fact this dog is slightly smaller or bigger depending on the scene.

Given the lack of proper clothing that animals can wear without feeling unconfortable, the amount of clothing they can wear usually doesn't exceed the [[AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal accessory-wearing]] or [[HalfDressedCartoonAnimal half-dressed (shirt or other top but no pants or other bottom version)]] tiers.
