My husband teases me but admitted last night he was only kidding. He is all for the jersey and one of the sweaters Rocky has matches one of his
he likes it when they wear them together. Daddy and his little boy!

We've always had Chesapeake Bay Retreivers with water-proof, dense, double coats; you know, a manley-man type dog that doesn't think twice about jumping into icey water during hunting season (and just because the water IS THERE!). I never thought much about why someone would dress up their little dogs, but I thought some of the holiday outfits were very clever. Then I got a Maltese 6 months ago and right away I knew I would have to find him a good coat for our Wyoming winters. I didn't know there was such a thing as dogs without an under coat! I got educated when I got my fluff. I got him a very manley insulated, water-proof coat and he looks good strutt'in his stuff with the Chessies. Not in the water though.

I want to get her some cute sun visors and definitely a sweater for cooler weather. Does anyone know where to find cute sun visors without the chin strap. I just want the ones that the ears go through. Thanks

I've been looking on line for you, but they all have straps. Maybe you could make alterations and cut off the straps. The ones that I see, the ears go through, so just buy an inexpensive one and alterate it, and if that works buy a better one, and do the same.

Isabella will only wear one coat. She got quite a few items for Christmas but they are too large and cumbersome right now. When you only have a single coat, it is cold outside in the winter. Even with a coat, she is shivering in less than 10 minutes. I can't wait to put pretty little bows in her hair. I had one Schnauzer that loved clothing and another that went bonkers if you tried to dress him. I figure the animal will let you know what they want. Isabella sure does.

I don't put clothes on Lucy very often. But in the winter I put sweaters on her, and on holidays I dress her up--this year she had the cutest kind of jester-type collar for Christmas. I live in Nevada so I have t-shirts for her in the summer if her hair is cut short. Frankly, here almost everybody puts coats on their dogs in the summer. I guess if we are extra sensitive to the cold, we figure our dogs are too.
People are being judgmental. They're probably thinking of the Paris Hilton type people that use dogs as accessories. They don't realize that you can have a little dog, dress it up, and still know that it's a dog and treat it like a dog. These just happen to be EXTRA adorable dogs--it's not THEIR fault they're so cute...

I hate to say this bc I don't want to offend anyone who dislikes their fluffs in clothes, but this is meant more toward the people who laugh at us for putting them in clothes.
To me, it seems that people who are so against it are people who don't care about what THEY look like. That seems to be the pattern. Yes, my Maltese is my baby and YES I am gonna dress her like my baby and spoil her rotten and baby talk to her and kiss her like crazy and if you don't like it, well, tough crap!!! In the end, I feel sorry for YOUR baby because they aren't getting the royal treatment they deserve! Well, now that I have vented I can go back to being a nice girl again!!

I say haters gonna hate!! People with non-frou frou dogs just don't understand... and they never will!! Plus, you can definitely justify dressing up your fluffs in harsh winters... but yeah, if someone said that to me, I would let them have it too!!
