I think its only common amongst people with small dogs. The rest of the world doesnt get it. This is why I actually dont take chloe or tink out of the house too much. I cant walk 2 step in a store without a bunch of people crowding around the dressed up dogs. I prefer to run my errands as quickly as possible and found that it was too frustrating when I had the dogs. Which is a shame because I enjoy them and enjoy dressing them up but the rest of the world isnt ready for my dogs
BUt I dont thinks it weird. I love dressing up my dogs!
