Missy was the same. She needed to wear sweaters that I cut out of socks at 7 weeks of age. She was just so small and young, she'd always be cold. I guess because she had to wear clothes all winter she just got use to it. Even her breeder dressed them up. Missy actually enjoys wearing her clothes. Bows were another story, but now she is use to them too Missy will even wear booties!

Choko is not very fond of clothing either, he'll try to "bite off" his t-shirts for about 10 minutes haha, but if I distract him, taking him for a walk or make him play around with his toys, he forgets about it. After that, he really doesn't care.

Does she seem cold? Maybe she just doesn't need clothes.

Sounds like my little sister's dog. She gives me the dirtiest look whenever I put her in little outfits. But if I play with her right afterward or take her for a walk, she completely forgets. I say you should just put it on her and if she takes it off somehow that's fine. But if she is just squirming, just leave her be. She will get used to it.

our Gracie loves her clothes she wears something every day, and if it is cold outside and im not quick enough in the morning she will try and get a sweater out of the basket it is so funny as she shakes it like mad and then drops it at my feet .Mikey also doesnt mind t shirts but Sadie hates all clothes so we dont push it .they are all so different lol

No usually in the house i dont put any on her cause its warm here but like today it was cold and raining so i put a little jacket on her and i touch her nose to feel if its warm or cold, thats how i can tell usually.

I have dress my girls since little, just make sure that the clothes fit her right and comfortable, my girls in the beginning stay and don't move but I will ignore them, also they figure it out that clothes mean go out, so they now love them, I will make a big deal telling them in a baby voice, que bonita, so cute wooooww you seen them now is so funny they thing they are all that when they were their dresses lol

Mine get excited when I get their clothes out because it always means we are going bye bye, so they can't WAIT to get them on.
