    It’s not a dog with clothes… it’s a dog with clothes that seem entirely for fashion and not protection

    Their feet are bare and, living in Canada, I can tell you that a tight sweater is no protection for the cold at all…

      They’re certainly fashionable but they also look fairly warm to me, I don’t think it’s fair to say they’re not for protection.

      This looks like normal dog clothes to me. A sweater is necessary but quite sufficient for a grey hound or a whippet because of their coat but dogs are normally without shoes in the winter unless the snow is particularly harsh and icy.

      I think this is all a knee jerk reaction because people think it is posh when it is not.

        I guess everyone who does not agree with you is probably an idiot… I am happy to share the sun that comes out just to see your pretty face ;-)

          Dude what? I’m just talking about a topic that you introduced by making assumptions of owners of dogs that we have exactly one photograph that has exactly zero context. That is totally uncalled for.

            It seems clear that comment touch your buttons… it’s OK if you want to dress your dogs like that, you do you bud

            And yes, my joke was based on a generalization… same as yours:

            I think this is all a knee jerk reaction because people think it is posh when it is not.

        good, then make sure to get them a pajama that cuts the wind, otherwise, they’ll just be as cold in a few mins
