Is it fair to dress dogs up in pretty clothes or do they not like it? Some breeds seem happy wearing clothes but are they really??

Answers:

They're not happy, they're just use to it like getting use to wearing a collar when they are puppies. I think it's pathetic. Have a baby instead is what I think. Dogs have fur, they don't need a designer jumper over the top.

I detest seeing dogs dressed up like kids.they are DOGS!

---

I think it is bizarre. Some dogs may like the attention from their owner but really!

---

i dont think fat dogs like it

---

depends on the dog. Some will do it just to please you. You should never force a dog to do somthing they do not want to do

---

It indulges the owner not the dog

---

No it isn't, if you wanted to dress up a dog then buy one from Argos!! Winter coats etc for older dogs but that's all.

---

Easy Answer: Why do you think dogs bite people? They have being dressed up.

---

i say if its a short haired breed and its cold out, a sweater or jacket of some sort is ok. but other than that, its just dumb.

---

well depends, if they're used to wearing clothes. they won't know any different. But if not, they will not like it and it won't be fair on them.

---

no dog likes but some will tolerate it. It is not natural to them and if they have a heavy coat they may over heat.

---

Some dogs do it to make you happy. The happier you are, the happier they are. For smaller, short haired dogs and elderly, i thinks its OK for a sweater or jacket during the winter. Otherwise, I would recommend staying away from clothing.

---

No, it's wrong!

---

i don't feel these dogs LIKE it, they just put up with it! animals love to make their families happy!

---

If it is a small dog it's pretty cute.and pretty cold! I think dogs dressed in clothes are cute if they are smaller breeds. but other than that answer this question: Why do dogs bite people? OK give up? answer: they are being dressed up and most dogs don't like it!!

---

I think it ok to put clothes on a dog in certain situations. If the dog is old or has a very short coat and it is cold out, they may need a jacket to keep them warm when they go outside to the bathroom. When it is raining and the dog is an inside dog I think it is ok to put a raincoat on them so they do not get soak and wet.

haha well i try to dress my kitty up but i guess they are nothing like dogs. if she's fine with it go for it.. otherwise dont force it on her. i doubt any dog loves wearing clothes they just lyk pleasing their owners.

---

i think its gross its taking away the poor dogs dignity. Big dogs do not mind bandanas around their necks though. But tu-tus are discusting. I really feel for tinkerbell paris hiltons dog poor thing. Some breeds of dog need a jacket as they are almost hairless.

---

No it isnt right,I would never dress a dog of mine up, no I don't think they do like it.

---

I had a dobie who would get cold in the winter so she loved it when I put on a sweater. She didn't wear it in public.

---

I think its very unfair to dress a dog up in clothes, how uncomfortable must the poor things be, we saw a woman with a pug during the summer and she had the poor little thing dressed in this stupid jumper, the poor dog was in so much distress panting with the heat, she wasn't best pleased when I told her I thought she was been very mean distressing her dog like that, dogs don't need clothes to restrict them, they just need to be what they are, DOGS.

---

Well i have 3 Papillons and have proper winter coats that just sit on top, but i must admit i have bought them all a santa outfit so i can take there photo at xmas.The dogs don,t seem to have a problem,to little dogs who like fussing they love the attention but i would not let them wear them all day as it would be like them being in a straight jacket and i love my babies to much to hurt them in anyway.

---

don't listen to all the negative answers that people are giving you. ill the winter ill put sweater on both my dogs, i think its cute

---

dogs should not be dressed as Barbi dolls..they are dogs..i have a rule i don't wear fur and they don't wear human clothes.

i feel very strongly about this it denigrates the dog who is beautiful in its own right and not a toy to be dressed up taking the animals dignity away.

---

it is not fair to dress up dogs in fact I've never heard of anything more stupid no breed is happy wearing clothes if you want a baby substitute and if it's possible have a baby and leave your poor pets to be what they are animals who all through their development have had their natural clothing

---

my opinoin is that it depends on the owners my dog has different types or coats as i have a horse and when i take her with me i put it on her to keep her warm not in the summer but definatley in the winter
