Do you ever feel guilty? I don't know about the rest of you, but I always feel so guilty because I buy Tatum more than Stedman. It's not that I do it on PURPOUS...but honestly, there just isn't as many cute things for boys as there are girls. I always feel so guilty about this :( Like today I went into Petsmart and bought Tatum a new bed for Valentines Day, a new toy, and a new blanket...and didn't come out with a single thing for Stedman :( It's not that I didn't LOOK for him something, because trust me, I DID...but I just didn't find any cute boy things that I liked :( I HATE this! I wish there was more out there for boys. Any time I find something cute for boys, I buy it...but I always see cuter girly things :( For example, they have the cutest little Valentine toys out, but they are all GIRLY! I guess maybe because Valentines is mostly "pink" - but it looks like they could make some cute things in red or something, lol. And don't get me wrong, Stedman has ALOT - in fact, 90% of all the toys are "his" (of course they share them though - well sorta, when Tatum feels like being nice LOL)...and he does have a ton of clothes too...but lately this is just something that has been bothering me :( Anyway, I feel so guilty about it but honestly I am not intentionally doing it. I WANT to buy him more things, but most things I see for boys I am just not all that crazy about :( Does this ever happen to anyone else? Please tell me it does so that I don't feel even worse LOL. |
YES I FEEL GUILTY!!! I feel guilty because now that I have Roxy I actually pamper my niece and nephew less!!! Which I think is worse... But Roxy is mine... I don't have Chompers yet... but I already have a few shirts for him... but the fact is they dont make as cute stuff for boys... WalMart has a few cute stuff in their Maximillion collection... I bought most of those, and I bought a little polo shirt at Petco. Besides that... I already feel bad that there's not that much for little boys thats cute... Maybe look on ebay, but that just means its more complicated... With girls you can go right to any store... AND I REFUSE TO DRESS MY BOY LIKE A GIRL!!! lol... I dont think its right... lol Can you believe ppl think Roxy is a boy sometimes.... OKAY>>> 1. She is dressed in all pink 2. She has pink bows in her hair.... 3. Uh, she's wearing a DRESS 4. She doesnt EVEN LOOK like a BOY!!! Her face looks like a GIRL!!!! HOW CAN PPL GET THIS WRONG!?!?! |
Me too! I buy alot more for Jewels same reason. I get really excited when I find something cute to buy Chachi because its not too often. I wish there was more out there for the boys |
Guilty, guilty here:( ................I buy stuff for TInkerbell alll the time, but not always for Chiquito:( My maltese........I EVEN TAKE WAYYYYYYYYY MORE PICTURES OF TINKERBELL THAN CHIQUITO:( |
I know exactly what you mean! It's so easy to find super cute girly things all the time. Boys are tough to buy for, poor little guys! |
I don't have any boy dogs but wanted to add that it's the same way in the people world. I have 5 skin boys and it is so hard to find cute clothing for them. And you can look over to the girls section and it's a sea of pink gorgeous clothing |
You guys wanna talk about feeling bad... I didnt even TALK about my Chihuahua Chico in the last post!!!! Chico has one shirt thats all bones and glows in the dark that says Bad to the Bone. He has like 4 Bandanas, and he has 2 sweaters for the cold... But thats it... thats nothing compared to what Roxy has... She has her own CLOSET!!! Dresses, jean skirts, outfits, hair ties.... Plus, Yorkies are easier to accessorize I think... we live vicariously through them, especially if we don't have kids, or our kids are too old... Chico doesnt like being dressed now anyways, his poor little legs have arthritis, so its hard to get stuff on him... But ROXY loves getting dressed & ready to go places, I get her clothes out, and she just sits there and waits... She loves it. |
since i only have one pup, i dont feel guilty, but i do wish there was more for boys out there. ive started making my own "beds" and clothes for dex cause then i can make it as cute and "boyish" as i like! i did try to find a little girl stuffed animal as a valintine "date" for dexter but couldnt find one either... |
I only have one, but there are so many less boy things than girl things that you can't help but buy more for the girls. Plus, I doubt your babies think you love them any less if they aren't getting as much stuff. Now, if you give one a treat and not the other, they might get a little jealous though :p |

My Stedman has pretty much everything from the Max-A-Million line also - they really do have some cute things! :) I just wish there was MORE out there, ya know? :( I don't think I have been anywhere where I haven't found SOMETHING cute for a girl dog....but it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack almost when looking for cute boy things :( Usually when I buy Stedman something, I DO buy it online - because I just always seem to have better luck there than in the stores. |

And your Roxy sounds alot like my Tatum ;) She LOVES getting dressed (well, so does Stedman) - they both just sit there and let me do it like, "whatever mom! :D" .....I guess they think it's natural LOL. Like they are SUPPOSED to wear them or something, they are just so used to it :p |

I have the same problem everyone is having finding anything cute or different for boys. So, I do end up buying more for Ruby, but I don't feel guilty necessarily. I don't think Reno minds too much, he would just as soon not wear clothes anyway.:cool: It was the same problem with my two sons when they were younger. I would go into the stores and see rack after rack, row after row of sweet little girl things.......only to see the same 2-3 lonely racks of boys striped t-shirts, polo style, sports t-shirts, cartoon characters shirts, jeans and khaki pants.:( |

OK - I think I am seriously starting to lose it here :D We ARE after all talking about dogs...geez, I am talking about them like they actually KNOW what clothes are or something. Good grief :p |
Guilty!!! I have two little girls, and they have matching outfits, but I buy things I know the larger, Maggie (10 lbs), will look good in. Then I look for the smaller version of it for Bailey (4 lbs.) It's just that Magpie was my first yorkie and she'll always be my special baby. I love Bailey with all my heart, she's my cuddle bug. But Maggie is the Original!! Does that make sense?? |
Quote:
I totally get what you mean though...there is ALWAYS that "special bond" with the first, "original" baby :) :tinyheart |
Guilty here also!!! Sasha has 3 drawers full of dresses, sweater, etc...Poor Seth has a few things thanks to Jody and Carol but not much. Sasha is dressed everyday and Seth is not. I like everyone else try but there are not as many things for boys and believe me I LOOK. |
Having 3 boys i know it can be hard But they have draws fulls of clothes & they really couldnt care if there toys are pink lol we go by squeek & funness lol i do feel bad sometimes Austin has a carseat & stroller & comes EVERYWHERE with me & its not possible to take the other 2 they dont seem to care tho they just take a nap Mabee stedman wants to be nekky !? Mabee he likes the color Pink !? |
I get so frustrated too when I see so many cute things for girls. But Samson barely puts up with me putting a sweater or a hoodie on him when we go out. So I just satisfy my need to spoil him by over doing it with buying him toys. He loves having soooo many toys. He's got TWO toy boxes that he just loves to jump in and bury himself in. But it sure would be nice to have more cool stuff for boys. |
i only have one so i cant say..but i know that when it comes to even skin boys there arent as many nice things as a girl..girls have dresses and bows, etc its harder for a boy...i dont blame u for feeling guilty but its not ur fault its the fault of the stores and desingers they should make more things for furbaby boys.. |
I have two boys so I don't feel guilty about buying more for one and not the other, I just hate not being able to find anything and I hate ordering everything I buy for them. I stocked up on a bunch of sweaters from wal-mart that were $5.00 and I have all the maxamillion stuff. |
