Dressing your dog

oliree @oliree (51) 9 Jan 07

Is it ever a good idea to dress your dog? My sister does sometimes for special occasions and i think it looks funny but is it cruel? Everyone just seems to laugh at the dog which doesn't seem very nice!

oliree I think i'll need longer than 3 years to save for this trip. Anyone want to help out? I think they should have a lottery of 1 seat a week so normal people can get a chance at going, not just the Bransons.

America's world view

oliree @oliree (51) 3 Jan 07
