Micki, as you said about Chester shivering and being cold (although he was sick) she has been coming in from outside shivering and shaking. Of course, there is snow on the ground and the temperature is only about 15 F. or so. So we have just been leaving the sweatshirt on her so as she goes in and out the hundreds time of day we don't have to put it on, take it off....

Being navy blue, it looks kind of bad - her short little white hairs are covering it. She has a little bit heavier coat but it is a little harder to get on and off. I noticed in your pictures before that you wear a lot of sweaters on your dogs. I was afraid that all the rough houseing that she does with the other dogs that they would be full of pulls or maybe completely pulled apart. Do you have that problem with yours?
