I havent seen the episode but I get the diaper thing I really am not a fan of those and one of the things is they keep dogs from sniffing eachothers hinny which they do when they meet eachother most of the time. Now clothes......it really bothers me when people dis dog clothes or say they are cruel because actually what seems cruel to me is to see my dog sitting there shaking because she cold and not doing anything about it. Obviously I'm not going to dress her when its hot but even mine at 16 pounds is small and with no under coat is going to get cold and I cant imagine the real tiny ones with out at least one or two sweaters. Even when Callie is inside at night she gets cold with the ac pumping and as to have at least a tshirt on. With some people I feel like if you havent owned a dog thats small and with no undercoat ya aint got any room to talk because you dont fully understand. Sorry I get a little worked up about the clothes thing. My parents where big believers that clothes where stupid as they have two beagles and had a lab mix when I was growing up and they dont really get real cold although my my parents smaller beagle about 20 pounds would go under my covers and sleep at the foot of my bed at night
, but when they saw that Callie would shake when she was cold they understood it a little better. And if your going to have to dress them to keep them warm it might as well be cute
and its so not torture for Callie in anyway she pretty much dresses herself if a person holds the shirt she puts her head in, then the left paw, and then the right paw then prances through the house for a few minutes.
