Jealous that you put a dress on your dog??????? No, the majority of dog owners find it completely ridiculous that other people put dogs in dresses.


Poppy has about 12 sweaters for when it is cold outside, and she wears the lighter ones in the inside when it is cold. I'm also all for that and for booties when it is snowing, out of necessity...and yes they are gosh darn adorable...but still a necessity.


But trust me, no one is "jealous" your dog is in a dress. I don't even know if I should say that...if it makes you feel better saying that, alright....but I think the feeling of superiority all of you are allowing yourselves to feel is the same feeling of superiority you are bashing in those that insult you. That is the point I am trying to get across here and if I offend anyone, I am sorry. I am happy you all find a little piece of happiness in dressing up your dog.


Live and let live.


No one is jealous that your dog has a dress on. There are a million reasons to be jealous of a Yorkie and Yorkie owner, but definitely not this.

This thread sinks as low as those who originally insulted that poor woman and her dog. I didn't want to offend but all the eye rolling, insulting and "jealousy...


Rise above it. I feel you are all better than getting so defensive over something you all know is socially not generally accepted. Do what makes you happy and don't give a hoot what other people think, but don't sink to their level......especially with "jealousy" remarks. That couldn't be further from the truth.


IF this thread wasn't meant to be as serious as it is coming across, I sincerely apologize, but it seems genuine and I didn't expect this type of thing.
I think some people DO make rude comments because they are jealous of the fact that they don't have a cute little yorkie to put dresses on. Some are teenagers, whom maybe aren't ALLOWED to own their own dog yet, and some are maybe people that can't afford one of the well bred yorkies. Jealousy is often a reason that people make snide/rude remarks. The rest of the naysayers just don't have any couth.
