I never even thought about buying clothing for a dog until Gracie came along. She gets cold very easily. When she was a puppy and could not find a lap to sit in she would lay with one of the cats and wrap herself around it to get body heat.
I had to get her some winter coats for outside wear and some sweater dresses to wear inside. She has long hair but the lack of under coat seems to leave her at a loss for insulation. She prefers the sweater dresses because they are loose fitting and I assume more comfortable. She also has socks for when the floors get drafty in the coldest part of winter.
Some Yorkies seem to have better heating systems than Gracie's and don't seem to get cold as easily. I suppose it is up to you and the comfort level of your pet. |
