Wrong…

Is it just me or is seeing a dog wearing shoes just wrong? I used to be horrified by all the dogs here that wear clothes (and hats, and sunglasses and raincoats etc etc) but I got used to it. My guess is one in three dogs I see walking around are wearing some kind of outfit (So far the best one was a dog dressed in a matching pink jogging outfit same as the owner!) But shoes?

Why? The dog I saw wasn`t limping of anything…and its legs seemed ok (I thought maybe the shoes were because it had problems with its legs or feet perhaps) but nope, I think the owner just decided to put shoes on his dog.

There are shops here that sell only dog clothing. I mean not just shops for dogs that sell everything from clothing to collars to leads etc…I mean shops that sell ONLY dog clothes. The first time I saw one I thought it was a shop for baby clothes..then I realized my mistake!

If you google shoes for dogs about a million sites come up. I guess shoes for dogs are in at the moment….

    heh heh – to stop his feeties getting dirty so he can come inside straight away!

    Although my families dogs could use some – they make the worst noise when they lick between their toes – our old dog used to lick and bite until his foot bled (he was a little nutso!).

    I must confess, I love small dogs in clothes! I am all about tiny stuff and cute stuff so a combination of a tiny dog in cute clothes is mind blowingly awesome to me :D

    Dog shoes on the other hand…they just aren’t really cute, and I’ve never seen a dog who seemed to remotely enjoy the feeling of walking in shoes.

    I figure if you can put a dog through the trauma/humiliation of having to wear a costume, let him have bare feet!

    They had dog only stalls in Korea at every single market, I LOVED them.
