♥My Lil' Monkey Girl♥ Donating Member | I leave clothes on Bailey to keep her warm. Normally it is a cotton dress or tshirts or her pjs. Nothing fancy though. Something simple. And she is fine.

Luvs Lulu Donating Member | My two have clothes on. They are crated when I am not there and they are fine. As long as you have a baby that doesn't mind the clothes then you should be fine. Just don't leave on any bandannas or something like that.

| My Husband says NO clothes on when no one is home. He says 'anything' could happen, and how upset I would be if they hurt themselves or worse |

YT 1000 Club Member | I don't think I'd leave clothes on Roxie when I'm not home. Sometimes her little front legs come out and get caught up inside the outfit. That would be really frustrating for her plus if it was in a position she couldn't move it for a long period of time I'd worry it could cut off her circulation or something. |

| I never leave clothes on Onni when she is alone. I would worry wart that she was getting tangled up in them.

| I was wondering the same thing. The past 2 days I have left Bella with a shirt on. It was only 33 degrees when I left for work today and I didn't want her to be cold.

Donating YT 10K Club Member | This may end up like the wearing a collar thread... Although mine don't spend much time alone...I have no qualms about them wearing clothing. None of mine are tiny enough to get tangled up in their clothing.

| Thanks everyone. I have left for short periods of time such as the grocery store and I was worried about leaving the clothes on. They are fine with the tshirts but I think I'll make sure to take them off when I leave from now on. Appreciate everyones responses!

| Since my husband is retired and at home and I still work, I rely on him to take Gucci out during the day. Now that the weather is turning cooler, I keep a sweater on him along with his harness. Larry has difficulty dressing Gucci and the harness helps keep the sweater in place. Gucci is in his playpen when we aren't around to play with him! |

Mine also wear collars 24/7. The only time they come off is for a bath. I'm more scared of them not wearing them, than wearing them. Everytime I hear of a dog getting loose, I always hear, "they didn't have thier collar on" (w/ I.D. tags)

| The problem I have with leaving clothes on my yorkies is that their hair gets matted if it is on for more that a day.. I never thought about them getting tangled up in them.. good though.. |

| The only time mine wear sweaters and jackets is when it gets really cold. If we go anywhere that we can't take them, I have no problem leaving sweaters on them. The sweaters would be very easy for them to take off if they wanted, but so far they have always left them on. The youngest, Razael has pj's and she LOVES wearing them. Last winter I think she lived in them hehe!
