Oh my God. That article is basically saying we are all stupid and act like sheep.
The trend came about with the celebrities and their handbag dogs, and they see the trend with people wanting owls as pets because of harry potter.
I got my first Yorkie long before they became as popular as they are now. And I know people put clothes on dogs long before pet boutiques started popping up because when I was younger, I met a lady who had two small Yorkies and she put little socks on their feet, and she would put baby shirts on them.
I am sure there are people out there who get small dogs just to be trendy and they don't get taken care of. But I know I take damn good care of my dogs and they do get dressed.
If they didn't like it then why does Duke go crazy when he sees me with a new shirt for him?!? And he gets excited when I put his clothes on him.
Lucie just doesn't care what I put on her. Neither of them don't like hats or pants, so I don't make them wear them, if I did, that would be mean. In the past two months my two dogs and rabbit have gotten more things than me or my husband both have. I would raise hell if someone tried to accuse me of not taking good care of them just because they have clothes.
