Aw, she's so precious, deserved the entire commercial, not just a featured part, LOL. On another note, in another video, your baby was wearing booties that actually stayed on as she ran in the snow. Could you tell me where you got them from? Riley is sooo sensitive in the snow. Thankyou!
| Thanks, everybody. She's going to have a hard time spinning with her head so big from all the compliments! :p
Azureblue, I've finally settled on a bootie I like for my gang. They are pretty simple and could probably be made easily, but if you're interested in ordering some the woman does have a Web site. Page 1. Her pictures aren't very good, though, so it's hard to tell what you're getting.
All they are is a rectangular fleece sack with some stretchy elastic at the top securing the Velcro . I like the fleece because they are light and the dogs get used to them easier. They do get damp in wet snow, but that's what's nice about fleece. It keeps its insulating capacity even when damp. The stretchy velcro is the secret. You can clamp it down just a little bit tighter than you could regular velcro, and it stays on pretty well.
I order the 3xs for my 4-pounder. The 2xs's fit better on my 10-pounder, but I find she leaves that Velcro just a little too long. It doesn't fit as securely. I guess my recommendation for a larger Yorkie would either be to go with the 3x's or ask if she'd put 3xs-length velcro on a 2xs bootie. That's what I'm going to do next time!
Hope that helps. |
