| Daisy wears a sweater when it snows, otherwise snowballs accumulate in her long curly hair in her undercarraige and we have to give her a really warm bath everytime. The sweater keeps the snow off and keeps her warm, shes a bit of a wimp and shivers without it!! |

| I put coats and sometimes boots on my Doberman in the winter because she is sensitive to the cold and I'd rather her not have any frost bite. | |

| I have to disagree, I love dressing my dogs up. Lol.
Maisy actually enjoys it, she will jump right in a jacket. But, since they are a bit old now and have joint problems I only dress Java up. He is a bit odd shaped, so I only put knitted sweaters on him, but he does have a jacket. | |

| it kept falling to one side (and i had duct taped the ties, that tie under her belly, on) so it is really hard to tie properly, I have to re-think my poncho, see if there is any way i can fix it, or decide to trash it.

| Stumpy, literally, jumps into her t-shirts, blanket and coat. She is all about comfort, that girl. She likes to be warm. I am all about function so sizing and fit are a priority. For her size, she has a pretty deep chest and it's not always easy to fit. Add to that that I can't stand synthetic material and the few things she has to wear were very hard to find. | |

~MSE | hmm...glad i asked...i think i'll keep an eye out for one to try out, but we probably won't have much rain until next spring so i may be slow going...if i do get one soon and work this out i'll let you know how it goes...if you come up with anything for yours, let me know...
my first thought was velcro that has sticky on the back and elastic straps....or attaching it to a harness to keep it in place | |
