| Just wondering if I'm the Only One Who doesn't buy clothes for or dress their Yorkies? The only thing I've tried was a coat and she was having no part of that so she doesn't have even one piece of clothing. |

| Well not quite the same, but almost. She does have two little woolly jumpers that I knitted for her, as now she's getting old she feels the cold. And she's always had one little mac as where we live, high up on the moors in the north of England, it rains ALL the time otherwise she'd be drenched every time she went out of the door. But I've never bought dresses & such, in fact I've never even seen them over here, & I could just imagine some of the remarks she'd get from some of the old blokes in the village if she were to appear in a frock ! |

| Did you manage to buy the Cowboy Magic in the UK or did you have to order it from the States via the web? |

| Nope, you're not the only one. Tatum has one jacket (leopard print) that is precious as all get out but it's all she has. I think she looks prettier without clothes because of her long hair. I don't bash those that do have clothes and I think they are adorable dressed up but we choose to spend our extra money (if there ever is any) on other fun things. Just a personal choice.

| I tried dressing my girls when they were little. I have a few pictures of them. They hate clothes. When I put them on, they would just lay there acting like they were being punished. I put sweaters on them at Christmas, took quick photos then off came the clothes. It's hard enough to keep bows in their hair. I bought a jacket for Max, he wears it on cold days so far. I decided not to invest in cloths since they won't wear them.

| Mine have loads of clothes but rarely wear any of them. The most they use now is their coats. The reason why I rarely dress them is because I noticed that they matt when wearing clothes therefore I don't even bother anymore. |

BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | I make Vest and Dresses but mainly Lillie is naked! I cant say she "likes" to wear clothes, but she will wear them, but when I take them off her, she goes nuts, rooting all over the place. I do keep her hair up just to keep it out of her eyes. I think like anything, you have to train them to wear clothes, I dont really think any of them "like" it, but we like to see them in clothes so thats why we put them on them. |

| Mine do not like clothes but I do have the harness vests. They only wear them when we go out -- and I figure they would have to have some sort of harness so why not make it pretty? I also have the hoodie harnesses and they wore those okay on a cold windy day. As long as there is nothing on their legs, they seem to tolerate it well. So, I'd say mine only wear functional items.

| Chewy has one sweater for the winter. She doesnt need any more because we dont go out when its very cold. Honestly havent been out in about a month. But before that she used to go out like 4 days a week and then i would wash it. CANT WAIT TILL SPRING!! |
