Deb

Very diva-ish! LOVE IT!

omg she looks gorgeous!!! :)

She is looking very stylish in that coat !! Desi lets me put anything on her but I've been doing it since she was 12 wks old. I'm in the process of training Millie now and thats like bronco busting.

:thumbup: Well Miss Mini is all of 11 weeks old ..so i guess shes strong willed huh ..giggles for the most part shes a awesome doggie going outside and on paper by the door and learning tricks even hahaha not to mention she sleeps from about 9till 7 am ..good baby ..gotta love her!

She looks really sharp in her new coat!

Love the coat, and the baby is adorable!!

oh she is soo precious in her little coat ;)

She is too cute. Love that coat. Makes me want a little girl. Hubby would kill me also. I live in a house full of boys......me and my daughter.......kinda outnumbered. But they probably couldn't live with much more drama anyways.

Adorable!

Too Cute!!!

I started dressing my girls at 5 yrs old that was 3 yrs ago. The only one that gave me a real hard time and she still does now is Melissa my Malteese, but Buffy my Yorkie is really good with her cloth.

When my sister comes over if the girls don't have cloth on she'll ask "Why are the girls running around naked?"

LMAOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!! This post cracked me up ...she looks adorable for a little Rodeo impersonator

so when they were these outfits are they comforable and how long do you guys leave them on? I really need to find these things out before I try to dress Boston?

what a cutie
 

she is SOOOO cute.... where did you find such a cute coat?

Very stylish....

Very cute! I love dressing up my girls, but tink gives me a hard time too. CHloe doesnt mind, thank goodness!

Almost like Matthias's coat/sweater he has! The fur is the same pattern, but only goes around his neck.

Real cute. I used to have to 'hog-tie' Matthias to get it on too. Now it doesn't phase him a bit. Now he only screams bloody murder when I hook his leash to his harness (no collars). He just hates it. Not like it's hurting him or anything, but he doesn't want me to put it on. Little stinker.

I got her coat at a local pet store a private owned one i believe. Oh and Thanks ..

Deb, In answer to your question, yes I love dressing Chloe. At first I felt silly, I asked my vet if the clothes were made because of teenagers wanting to dress up their toy dogs. Once she assured me, a material coat or sweater supplies warmth for their tiny bodies & was a good idea, that was all I needed! Chloe now has a small size school locker filled with different coats, sweaters but only a few hats (she hates boots!) In the beginning, she fought me the same way, once she realized it meant out to play, watch neighbors or her daily ride in the car - I hold up the coat and she comes runnin!! She even sits now so I can put it on, then runs for the door (she is only 6 months old) We started this in early October when our weather started getting cold and I noticed her shivering. Perhaps "Dogs learn what they live" too? Also I have an oval pet bed on my front seat in the car, in the beginning she tried to sit on my lap while driving, wanting to act like a playful pup, since I drive back & forth to NY every 2 months, I felt this was dangerous. When we first started driving I would pull over whenever she tried to leave the pet bed, Now if she gets up all I have to say is sit and she relaxes in her bed again. Back on the subject of coats: SHe loves fleece best (coincidently we have matching colors as far as her fleece coats-I had mine before she was born) She even loves her sweaters - I love the ones with the full collars best-fuzzy or furry BUT she hates her swede coat and I believe it may be because of the way some coats have a velcro down the entire middle of the belly area. (Maybe it is too stiff and therefore uncomfortable) Also different companies are sized very differently. she wears x-sm in most but after tons of returning, I started keeping a log on which company she needs x-sm and which one the sm fits better. x-sm fits great but too short on some company jackets for the long body on a Yorkie

Don't wish for a girl, take a look at some of those boys clothes Adorable with a capitol "A", made me wish for a boy, the next time but got to let Chloe finish training me first!

Funny sister
 

Your sister is too funny!!!!

I just posted a reply about the coats/sweaters : after reading it, then shopping:watch out for long velcro down the belly area. My Chloe leaves her's on for the duration of our trips outside (we live in cold Michigan climate) That includes yard play, porch watching or car rides. I leave her "nake" in doors. She doesn't seem to mind ha ha. She Hates stiff coats-velcro included) small velcro attachments are ok by her, loves her sweaters & raincoat. If the fit is too big she gets her front leg tangled inside and falls on her face :eek: Makes me feel bad, then we pack that coat away until she grows a bit (did this twice). Have fun with it - I do! :aimeeyork

:thumbup:Pattie sounds like I am gona have fun here with my one woman Rodeo hahaha ..Minis gonna find out fast I am a girly girl .I'll get her some biker chick leather and lace for her daddy the biker and I might even try sewing for her .

Hi Pattie

Poor baby falling on her face :cry8: Have you tried putting large safety pins on the sides kinda lifting the strap. By using the safety pins you can still use it when she gets bigger. I have started making somethings for my girls with the Velcro on the outer side, not the most attractive but much comfortable for hanging around the house and for when their hair is long. Things I have not made myself I have made changes remove the Velcro & replaced it or just covered it....just play around with it when you have some free time. Feel free to PM me if you need ideas or questions.

Yeah, you can't complain if the worst is not being able to dress her! Some of them just don't like the way it feels. Tucker used to get the most humiliated look on his face when we would dress him. Once the weather got cold I think he was happy to put his coat on. Now, he knows he's going for a walk if he gets it on and he loves to walk so he is good. Maybe she'll come around!

Sister is that you???
 

No hats, you get hat hair and not as pretty as pink bows ;)

Matching colors, try matching scraffs or I have a scraff the same print as her coat, or she has a fleece coat with a matching blanket.

I love all that furry or fuzzy stuff they look very nice or sooo cute on those little Diva's. :p Boys are getting there too. :thumbup:

:eyebrow2: Send me a picture of the Suede Coat at Lovmyyorkie@yahoo.com

Too short? just add furry or fuzzy stuff to the bottom with Velcro or make a skirt. :jump28ib:

She doesn't mind wearing them, here are a few pics of her in some of her coats. :aimeeyork
