We adopted a little chihuahua last year. Even though we hadn't intended on that particular breed, we couldn't resist. Here in So. Cal, there is an overflow of abandoned chis. Made popular by celebrities and pop culture, chihuahuas were overbred and when people don't understand their innate tendencies, they dump them at the shelters. I was told that once they are bred, they get dumped, too.
Anyway, our chi is adorable. But she is so small and cold all the time, we put sweaters or t-shirts on her. The problem is that people either think she's cute or that we are nuts. We aren't just dressing her up like a Barbie doll. She needs the warmth!
She loves to bask in the hot sun directly on our cement patio. The house is too cold for her.
What you do think about clothes on pets?
