| Maybe I need to explain some things ive said I hope people dont take things I say the wrong way. Some times things just dont come out right for everyone to understand, since we dont really know each other its hard to really understand what one means sometimes. When I say things about people buying clothes for their puppies, I don't mean you shouldnt. I know some people like dressing their puppies up and I think its fine and I think some are cute, its just that I am not the type to do that. I love my yorkie but I dont take her everywhere I go. People are just different. I see other peoples puppies dressed and think oh, that is so cute. But its just not for me. If you like to do that I feel its your money, your time and no bodys business. I love looking at puppies and I think most all of em are so darn cute and I like watching dog shows and the competitions. Matter of fact, I use to work some when they had the dog show where I live. I worked and the concession stand and loved to be there. It was lots of fun. I hold Kizzy, take up lots of time with her but I'm just not into dressing her. But it is cute for those that do that and I know some live in very cold places and have to put clothes on theirs to take them outside in winter. Just wanted to explain myself. I really believe in live and let live pretty much. more money than sense is just an old saying that means to me, that some people just have lots of money to use frivolously and others dont. We live very comfortably and we are very happy, but we are not into animals much. Just one puppy for us is about all I think I want at one time where some like to have a lot. So everyone, just enjoy your life and animals or whatever because life is short. But my brother breeds and sells big dogs in MN. He loves, loves, loves his dogs. He has always had several dogs, including huge 175 lb ones in his house. I love him but I dont like being around his big dogs as I am scared of dogs if they get higher than my knees. So see, even in siblings , everyone is different. Have a good day everyone.

| I'm not sure what prompted this but I tend to agree with you about clothes. We will put a shirt or sweater on our dog but anything after that becomes disturbing to me. Dresses, hats, shoes, costumes, etc are a little weird to me unless it's for some special event. But like you said, live and let live.

| As others have said, it's hard to know exactly what we mean sometimes when we are writing our words instead of speaking them to someone. It's the inflection in our voice or the smile or lack of on our face or so many things that are there when we are face to face to a person and is not there on the computer. It's also difficult to say everything you mean without writing a "novel". I look at my own posts sometimes and they seem to be very long and drawn out. I think it's because I am a very expressive person (or so I am told). Everyone tells me I couldn't talk at all if they tied my hands. I use my hands a lot and also facial expressions. And I do talk a LOT. So forgive me if my posts are long. I'm just trying to explain myself and it's difficult to do without all my "props." We all have different views on things and that doesn't mean we can't express them and still be friends or at least civil. I love to hear other peoples views and opinions. Sometimes they may even change my mind on a subject, sometimes not but that doesn't mean I have to change their's either. I have good friends and relatives that have very different opinions on some subjects than me and they include but are not limited too: politics, religion, abortion, alcohol, raising children, spending money, even our pets but we respect each other's differences and it certainly doesn't harm out friendship. I am very diverse. I am what some may call "conservative" on some subjects and "liberal". I hate those terms, but unfortunately, some people try to box us into one group or another. See what I mean. I just can't make it "short and sweet." Sorry! |

| I understand what you're saying and I understood it the first time you said it (on the other post) but I was afraid it might be taken the wrong way. Hopefully you didn't get too much flak about it. Tatum has exactly one piece of clothing. It's a leopard print jacket that I bought only because it was so darn cute. She really doesn't "need it" weatherwise. When it does actually get really cold here (nowhere near what some of you experience), she just runs out to do her business as quickly as possible - 99% of the time without a jacket. She also doesn't even wear her hair up in a topknot all the time because the way her and Stormie play, her hair has gotten broken off too often right at the topknot which gives her a long bang look that won't go up in the topknot the next time. So we give it a rest most of the time unless we take her somewhere. It's okay if you don't dress your furbaby up. Doesn't mean you love them any less. Everyone's different.

PS. Same with the topnot. We go over Grandbitch's house and she says, "Oh, that's probably giving her a headache." And then she takes it out.

| Chachi and Jewels are usually naked. Every now and then I put clothes on them but not everyday.

Donating YT 14K Club Member | Whatever happened, I'm sure that those that needed to read this will and will understand. Yes, it is hard to express all that you want on a computer. I know that I've offended people before but that's just my straight forward attitude about things. People don't see your smile when you're joking about things or your laugh when you post. Things are taken out of context all the time but hang in there! As people get to know you better, they'll understand what kind of poster you are. I think that people have finally realized this about me just as I've learned about others.

| I completely agree with you. I do think that some of the items are cute and fun but really dont understand the shoes and hats?? They seem kind of funny on when you see them walking in the shoes. I love the sweaters. Brody gets cold in the winter and we put a sweater on him in Feb and March to keep him warm. With him being a boy he will probably remain naked this summer. Still trying to figure out if I want to do puppy bangs or top knot. |

BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | I dont go over board on clothes, I do put them on her in the winter and actually I just washed up all her winter clothes and put them away for the summer. Kloey dont wear a bow everyday either, just when I feel like putting it in! Nice post! |
