The only clothes I put on my dogs are jackets and sweaters for when they go outside in the winter time. I also have one dogs that hates having a jacket so he goes without. If the dog likes it then I think if they want to spend the money on dog clothes then go right ahead. But if the dog does not like it then save your money and do not dress the dog up.

you are a good pet owner as you understand what your pet likes and doesnt like.

Dogs with very short coats get very cold in the winter and need to wear sweaters to keep them warm. I really feel that that is the only time your dog should wear clothes. Dogs are live animals. They are not accessories. They are not dolls. And they are not human. Humanizing a dog is one of the worst things you can do to a dog.

yes! thank you! i agree. when you take a dog thats meant for hot weather to a place that snows. a sweater would definatley serve its purpose and i doubt the dog would hate that.

I think putting clothes to dogs is not good. It can affect their natural behavior. Nature has given dogs proper protection. Also if a dog is enjoying clothes then no problem but I think one must not force clothes on dogs.

yeas i dont agree with using a dog as a child substitute. dressing them in rediculous scool girl costumes for halloween serves no purpose for the dog and i agreee it changes the dog naturaul nature of the dog species.

I think, most owners put clothes on their pet in pet shows or when they are going out to the park. That is likely stupid to put clothes on dogs everyday. I think dogs just hate it when being put on with clothes. They don't meant for them. Its for humans only. I also see dogs with colored hair. That's so stupid for the owner to do that to their dogs. They just make fun of it.
