The story+

NOT A HOT DOG. DON'T TEST ME. is the funny dachshund shirt for every owner who has heard the joke a thousand times, worn on dog walks, at the vet and on the couch with the dog in charge.

A long red-brown dachshund lies inside a hot dog bun with a squiggle of mustard down its back, one ear flopped and a narrow-eyed glare at the viewer, with a paper napkin and a pickle slice beside it, in vintage screen-print ink: cream, mustard, tomato red and brown. NOT A HOT DOG. runs above in cream and DON'T TEST ME. below in mustard, both at full width in heavy slab capitals.

Wear it to the dog park, the cookout and the drive to the groomer, or give it to the dachshund couple as a funny Christmas or birthday gift. Original art, made for Graphic Tees Co. and printed the day you order it.

Questions+
Does this dachshund tee run true to size?
The Not A Hot Dog, Don't Test Me tee from Graphic Tees Co. is a classic unisex cut in sizes S through 4XL, so it fits a couple who share the house and the dog. Order your usual size for a regular fit, or size up for a looser one. Your first size exchange is free within 30 days.
Is the fabric light enough for every day?
Yes. It is a lightweight 4.2 oz/yd² tee made from 100% combed, ring-spun cotton, with a little polyester in the heather colors, so it wears easily from morning walks to couch time. Graphic Tees Co. prints the dog, the bun and the lettering on the front in cream and mustard inks on the dark colors.
How should I wash it so the print lasts?
Turn the tee inside out, wash it cold with similar colors and tumble dry low or hang it up. Skip bleach and keep the iron off the print. Cared for this way, the Not A Hot Dog, Don't Test Me artwork from Graphic Tees Co. stays crisp through every walk, wash and nap.
Is it a good gift for a dachshund owner?
It is a fit for the dachshund couple or the friend whose long dog is tired of the hot dog jokes, from friends or family, for Christmas, a birthday or an adoption day. The joke is the grumpy dog in the bun. Graphic Tees Co. offers it in sizes S to 4XL.
When should I order it to get it by Christmas?
Order by about December 8 to have your Not A Hot Dog, Don't Test Me tee before Christmas. Each shirt is printed the day you order it and ships free in the US on orders of $45 or more, with tees under that at a flat $4.95. Graphic Tees Co. also swaps the size once, free.
How do I wash this graphic tee?
Inside out, cold water, gentle cycle. Skip bleach and fabric softener, then hang dry or tumble dry low. Never iron directly on the print.
