I am going to apologize from the outset for this post because it always seems that I am defending someone on here.
Mette, I thought your post was very nicely phrased when you asked about why we like to dress our dogs. I did not take it as criticism but as an honest request for knowledge and understanding. I know I get teased all the time by my friends and family who think dressing a dog is silly and pointless, but I try not to take it personally and get overly defensive.
I do dress my dogs. They seem to like it and I certainly do. I loved to dress my kids when they were younger too and I love to dress myself. I have always enjoyed fashion.I never thought about the fact that, for us, as people, dressing is "unnatural" as well, but it is. I learned something today. I can use that argument on my friends and family who might tease me for dressing my dogs.
AND...I am jealous of all of our members and others who own these stores and get to buy for their job!! How great is that? |
