I would never dress my dogs up and parade them around. Thats weird, and makes you look like a kooky dog owner. The worst I've done is to put a sweatshirt on a dog when it was super cold and wet. It looks funny and kind of cute. They love it.
Little Z, where are you in CR? I've got a lot of friends who either live there or own property there.
HEy, what's that easy lead harness doing on that gorgeous yellow lab. Labs never need reining in! I've owned labs and I accommodated them by allowing my arms to be stretched so that I can now scratch my heels without bending over.
If there was a "like" button I'd hit a lot of these pictures. Puppies are just killer, can't look at 'em without smiling. A close second are pictures of dogs that obviously want you to play, or take them for a walk.
Our two dogs form a "dog committee" that often walks into the room together, goes up to a human, and stares expectantly. The dog committee has decided that it is now time for dinner, or a walk, or for you to take them on a ride in the car. They don't care where, the ride is the thing.
You are cool with the big hole in the Yard aren't you? You did want the towel in the hole right.
Cause I ripped out that rose bush for nothing it you didn't want the towel in the hole, & that was a lot of work.
