I think that person and other who have done, do it because they are attention hogs and they just want people to be interested in them. Yes when we dress them they also get attention but as hopefully all of us have learned, we dress them when the weather is too cold for them. While I dress my baby to keep her warm, yes of course I dress her cute and peolpe think she's cute, but at least I'm not consciously hurting her to get that attention. So for those of you who think "It's not so bad" or it's not more wrong than tail docking...think again...when tails get docked you don't have to watch them all the time to make sure their tail doesn't get stuck somewhere and rip out, or that they mail swallow it and choke to death. All for the attention. I hope it's worth it for those who want it or like or don't have a problem with it.

You go girl! Nobella - you said exactly how I was feeling! I agree 100%.
