Just like you and me, sweaters and outerwear are so important for us, so I don’t see why it would be any different for your pet when they’re outdoors this winter…. Yesterday, I saw this article online and I think it would appeal to you and answer your questions. It’s online at PetProducts
My pit bull LOVES her sweater! She comes running up to me and sticks her head in the sweater and never wants to take it off! I say definitely give the sweater a try.
I think a sweater is a good idea - if you start them young, they don't freak out about the feel of it on them. My sister has a Rhodesian Ridgeback (sp?) and he's much happier (and warmer) with his sweater on.
My hubby thinks it's silly and mean to dress dogs in any clothing - but he's the first to cover them with a towel or light blanket at night if it's chilly in the house!
My Mini Schnauzer has coats, sweaters, long-johns, boots, etc. I was one that NEVER put clothes on a dog....until the Schnauz came a long. He just can't stay warm long enough to enjoy a walk or a hike with me and the Newf this time of year, so, bundled up he gets.
