    When Dexter's hair was thin due to Cushing's I had him wearing a sweatshirt, I think he was okay with it.

    When Sophie was older and it was bitter cold here I bought her a nice fleece coat. When I put it on her she wouldn't move a bone in her body! She would stand perfectly still until you took it off her. When Dexter & Sophie were both still with me, if I did put a t-shirt on Sophie, he would rip it off her.

    LuLu looks at me like I'm nuts if I try to brush her. Luckily she's boxer so she has really short hair. I don't think she'll go for a sweater.

    Erik has a ton of hair.

    Sabre has a fleece jacket and an oilskin jacket. We only use them in the rain or when it's cold as generally vizsla's have short coats (the hair variety) but with Sabre's Lysodren he is the hairest vizsla in the world! We haven't used the coats much this winter ... he is more accustomed to parking himself in front of the fireplace!

    Even during the hot summer, when it rains in Houston, it really pours and sometimes the whole day!!!So how are we going to the bathroom if we don't have a raincoat??? Nina Loves water in any form, but Truffa before the discovery of the amazing yellow hooded rain coat, made her mommy go outside with a big umbrella

    And because WE (meaning Truffa)have to walk everyday at night to poop and just plain exercise, well, jackets are in order so you can walk for 30 minutes and don't get soak wet!!!

    And of course during winter (even in Houston)when we walk outside, I froze to death during our walks so Truffa wears a cute faux suede or wool coat and Miss Nina a light Fido Coat. And if we go on vacations to a snowy place we pack our own valise!!!

    Yunah has a pink (raincoat) hoody For a functional purpose Let's say I have to go to the hospital and it's pouring outside...it's not nice to enter a "clean" place like a hospital with a soaking wet dog, shaking in the waiting room

    I plan on getting Cooper something for the winter, maybe some boots too, Cooper is our 5 month old Shih Tzu, he sure is a crazy little dog as compared to Shadow my husky.

    Crash and Darby don't have sweaters, but they each are sporting a new St. Louis Cardinals jersey. They got them just in time for the Cards to clinch the central division title last night. Wahoooo!
