Should I Dress My Dogs Up?

Should you or should you not dress your pet like a human? This is a very simple decision....don't do it.For the love of your pet and for all that is good and holy in this world do not dress up your pet. Your pet lives through enough humiliation already. Especially if you are one of those people who use their pet as a fashion accessory. If you are one of those people stop doing that too.

Your pet does not want to be dressed up. If you have any doubt of this think back to how much you hated it when your mom dressed you. Dogs are the only animals that will put up with that sort of behavior. Why? Because our dogs love us unconditionally. They are willing to be publicly humiliated just to make us happy. Unlike our children. Cats won't even tolerate the idea of being dressed up. If you have a cat that will allow you to dress it up then you either have a dog in disguise or an iRobot cat who will end up killing you for your own good. Good luck with that.

There are a few exceptions that are allowed:

  1. You may put booties on your dogs feet if you live in an area of the world where people still live in igloos
  2. Bandanas are fine for all occasions
  3. An outfit may be worn if your animal is working an undercover sting operation
  4. Or if it is Halloween 
  5. If your dog feels the need to be pretty you must be able to show a signed and notarized statement from your dog saying as much
Please let's end the damage that is being done to these animals self esteem.
