My dog is an Italian Greyhound. He doesn't have a lot of fur to keep him warm. The little coats and sweaters he wears in the fall and winter keep him from getting cold. There is no way he could go outside in cold weather without them. It would be cruel to NOT dress him.

Also, people put orange vests on their bird and rabbit dogs to keep them safe in the woods while hunters are out shooting. Don't forget sled dogs, they wear boots to protect their feet from ice.

People should pick the appropriate animal giving their weather. For instance, it would be cruel to buy a Bermese Mountain Dog, or a Husky, if you live in El Paso. Likewise, it would be cruel to buy an Iggy, if you live in northern Canada.



I'm not saying you are doing wrong having your Iggy in Michigan. Rather, the opposite. You are doing absolutely correct by getting a dog that is not built for the weather, and rectifying that situation.

i totally agree with both of you guys. especially newt. my dog is a miniature shnauzer, and he cant be in the snow longer than 7-8 mins before bad things start to happen.

depends on what the dog was bred for.. yorkies are for killing rats and as ornimants for people.

i have never seen these before... always surprised by the things they come up with for our pets.. as far as using little jackets and coats for dogs.. in harsh weather it is extremely smart to put a little extra layer on your pet.. they are in the warm house all day long and outside is extreme opposite.. i even put coats and blankets on my horses when it is bitter cold.. but never use these to the extreme.. let nature takes its course.. only when extreme temps require it..

These might be an alternative to declawing but I cant imagine a cat keeping them on I know my cat would work all day to get them off.He always manages to wiggle and squirm out of his flea collar.I would never declaw a cat,they depend on their claws for soo much and if somehow the cat gets lost it couldnt defend itself nor could it climb a tree to escape if it had to.

Agreed. Its a very basic thing to take away from them.

Yeh those are common. Stupid IMO...along with declawing...stupid and cruel. I hate it when people alter animals to tailor their preferences.

go buy a $2000 livingroom set and git yourself a cat you'll be proud to have claw caps
