Does your dog wear a sweater in the winter?
I would love to see some pictures.

Charlie, Buster and Nacey all have sweaters for the winter, Bitsy doesn't need one. This will be Nacey's first winter with us, I've already gotten her a sweater. Last weekend I got Charlie a new sweater. I need to get Buster a new one too.

They are all sleeping right now, but I'll take pictures and post them tomorrow.

Only sometimes. It really doesn't get too cold here for my muttlies.
Today though, I gave them a bath and Simba was shivering afterwards, so I put a sweater on him.

Nebo has some sweaters/jackets/etc. but I only put them on for pictures, he doesn't actually need to wear them, he never gets cold.

Reggie has quite a few and I just ordered some matching ones for him and Sydney. Both of them do get rather cold in the winter.

Neither of my dogs wear sweaters. They do wear booties sometimes though.

When I get my whippet however it is going to have a full wardrobe ;)

Doesn't really get cold enough down here for sweaters but when I lived in CT I normally didn't put sweaters on the crew unless it was REALLY cold outside and the wind was blowing.

But love seeing puppers with there warm sweaters and coats on :)

Mine didn't wear them until we moved from the USA to Germany. Now I put them on the dogs when it snows or is extremely cold.

Yes all four wear jackets and sweaters. Penny and Theo especially, as they are so little. Clover has her nice green tarten, weather proof jacket that she wears in winter now that she is slowing down a bit. Elvis went through about 2 jackets during winter as he was still growing.

I am not sure if i have photos, i will search through some albums and see what i can find.

Chester starts wearing his in all winter. Soemtimes if the a/c gets too cold for him in the summer he wears one in the house. :)

He has at least 15 sweaters, about 5 coats, and 3 or 4 t shirts.

This one's his favorite

Never. With all of mine having sufficient fur and with it being warm here year round, mine are always looking for a cool spot not a warm spot. If you even drape a blanket over'em, they'll quickly get it off of'em. Gully'll even squeash his bed up in his crate so that part of his body is on the cold plastic tray liner.

It doesn't get cold enough for my dogs to wear sweaters, but Peej does own a green and white one. When I put it on him, he gets depressed. :rolleyes:

Beanie has a nice thick coat,but he is such a baby that he acts like the cols is gonna kill him if he doesn't have one on.(sometimes i just put a t-shirt on him. don't tell him though. he thinks it's a coat or sweater.lol)

My dogs are all medium - long haired so no need for coats where I live... It only rains here.. But when we go up to the snow, Sesh and Megan get sweaters and jackets.. :)

Sasha wore a sweater the first winter I had her cause she was so skinny, she's fattened up over the last 8 years and is ok now, but I don't take her out for extended periods once it drops below -15oC. She does have boots though. It can get quite icy sometimes and they give her better traction.

Not really, but Kito used to have a really nice fleece sweater that our neighbor gave us. I wish I had taken pictures, because it was the funniest sight. As soon as I would put it on him, he would just stand still like a statue, his ears would go down, and he would turn the other way. Poor baby was embarrassed!!!
It did come in handy sometimes though to calm him down if there were kids around.

Abbey destroyed it though, and I'm pretty sure she would rip anyone's off if I put it on them. I'm so tempted to buy them at the store, but hubby reminds me I might as well just hand the $20 to Abbey:rolleyes:

I love the picture of Gino and Speck rocking their couture!!!!!

Tasha does sometimes, it gets pretty cold here in MN.

Tommy doesn't need anything, although I might try to get them both boots as their feet get cold fast when there is snow on the ground and the temp is really cold.
