| It took Baron about a week... to get used to the tee and tank tops I had for him for summer. Tonight I bought him a shearling winter coat with fake sheep lining. As soon as I put it on him he ran straight to my Papillion to show him. He then jumped up on the sofa, curled up and went to sleep with the coat on. Don't give up yet...There's hope @ the end of the tunnel... Good-Luck, Baron and his Mom

| I started Lucy with t-shirts & light weight sweaters. I think the softer the better. I put a t-shirt on Pebbles for about a half hour, I could tell it was her first time & she wasn't sure what the heck it was I'm going to keep trying.....

| We got Hot Rod at Christmas so he needed to put a coat on. He wasn't sure of it at first, but got used to it. Then came shirts...same thing, now he doesn't even flinch when I put something on him but he's 1. Maggie was so funny the first couple of times I put something on her. One of her dresses had a flower off to the side...she chased it round and round until she fell down! Now she doesn't have a problem having something on...it only took about a week. She will be 17 weeks tomorrow.

Senior Yorkie Talker | Lola has a faux suede jacket with faux sheepskin lining that she never minds wearing when it's cold outside or raining. T-shirts and tanks are a little tougher. Some shirts she doesn't mind, and other shirts she bites at. But I kind of understand because she's a dog and not really supposed to wear clothes, but she looks so cute. I bought her an angel costume for Halloween and she doens't seem to mind that one either. I've been putting it on her every couple of days for about two weeks now, for about ten to twenty minutes at a time. Just practice. Five minutes here, ten minutes there. They get used to it after a while. And with Lola she knows it's only temporary, I don't put clothes on her all the time.
