You wouldn't go out in freezing weather with a t-shirt and jeans on would you? Why would you expect a little dog with a single layer of hair to go out in freezing weather and be fine?

BTW I love that Juicy coat! They have a pink one for the girls and I really like it, but it just doesn't get very cold here in Texas. We may get a few freezing days but it doesn't last long. It usually doesn't get colder than a nice sweater day - but I still want that coat LOL. If it did get colder here, she'd have several coats.
that seems like something you would get for ur girl... but i can also see u with a matching hat scarf and boots some how lol u guys are really the fashionistas of the site lol.
