I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | 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!?!?!

| 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.

| 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

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.

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | Same here! The last thing I bought Stedman that I got REALLY excited about (and actually someone from YT sent it to me because I couldn't find it here) was the little Bomber Jacket - I just LOVE that thing!!! And my little Stud-ster gets so many compliments on it too It is just precious!

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | I hear ya girl! And the guilt just eats at you and eats at you Makes me feel so awful. I take equal amounts of pictures of both my babies...MOST of the time...except, I do take alot of pictures of Tatum when she gets new outfits - which there we go again...there just aren't that many cute ones for the boys I wish I could have "fashion photo shoots" with Stedman the way I do with Tator Darn it....us YT'ers just need to come up with a cothing line for the little studs ONLY!

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! " .....I guess they think it's natural LOL. Like they are SUPPOSED to wear them or something, they are just so used to it
