| Clothes I bought my litte Illy a cute little sweater since she gets so cold when i take her outside. I put it on her and she hates it. She won't even move. She just sits there and looks at me like "what are you trying to do to me?" I see all of your babies with their cute little clothes on and I was wondering if they act weird when you dress them up? I'm not sure if I should keep putting it on her to get her used to it or if I should just give up. Does anyone think that putting clothes on them is mean? Any feedback would be great. Thanks.

| Pivo used to hate his clothes, but then we realized that they just weren't comfortable. Some clothes he refuses to wear, but others he gets angry if we take them off of him. |

| I love to dress up my little ones!!! It just takes them some time to get used to wearing clothes, just keep putting them on and eventually she will get used to them. If putting clothes on them is mean, then I must be cruel

| If he couldn't move, it might be too tight that it's restricting his movement. When I first put Aggie in her clothes, she didn't like it. It grew on her. Now, she likes it because she knows it'll keep her warm. |

| It's not too tight. Actually it's kinda loose. I just don't think she understands what is going on so she just sits there and looks sad. LOL. She's too cute!

| Lol. Aggie gave me THAT look too. She was 9 weeks in the picture. She's now almost 5 months (this Friday!) old. |

| They grow so fast. Illy just turned 3 months this past Friday. I didn't realize how much different she looks from when I got her (8 weeks) until I looked at pictures. I think she gets cuter by the day and so does her personality.

| My dogs have all seemed to like wearing clothes. Guess I'm just lucky! But - there is no doubt, OF COURSE, that some clothes are more comfortable than others....and these are what I try to have them wear. We don't wear clothes a lot - going outside when it's cold we do - and once in a while if we want to "show off." But, most of the time, my dogs don't wear clothes. Carol Jean |

| Back when Mayzie was 11-12 weeks I had bought a sweater off of ebay. It had long sleeves that I had to roll up. I put it on her and I was heartbroken because she fought to get the heck out of it and I felt like I was a meanie. I figured it was too bulky and I would get something else or try again when when was older. She is now almost 17 weeks and she will wear the sweater. I have since gotten a sweatshirt and a tee shirt (from Rena)and she actually gets excited when she sees them. At first I would put them on her, make a big deal and then get her engaged in play of some sort. I would have her wear the shirt for a few minutes and then I would just take it off. She wears them uncontested now. The tee and sweatshirt were practically a non issue. I just think the sweater was too bulky. I am thrilled that she wears them happily because my first yorkie would not! I can't wait to do some more shopping! |

| I ordered a coat for Gracie online. It was too long and hit her back legs. I guess that made her think she couldn't use those legs because she threw them in the air and started running around on her front legs like she was walking on her hands. It was hilarious! She looked like a circus dog. Thank God I got a picture which I am going to try to figure out how to attach. |
