Dress Up Your Dog

by Chris Vegvary

Animals have no need to wear clothes, yet there are clothes out there made specifically for pets. What does this mean? Is it that we want to see them this way, or are they secretly communicating with us in order to let us know that they do, in fact, need clothing in order to get by? I lack the ability to communicate with dogs, so I could never honestly answer this question, but if you and your pet have some kind of mental link, or perhaps it talks to you similar to how Garfield and Jon communicate, then maybe you already know something I don’t.

If you feel like your pet wants to dress up in something, don’t be afraid to make that happen. Dogs may or may not feel embarrassment, but you won’t know until you put them in a ridiculously adorable costume, will you? Christmas already came and went, less than a week ago now, and you have a pet dog. Did you get them anything for the holiday season? Perhaps they’d like to be dressed up as an elf. It’s not strange if your dog enjoys the costume, either. If they didn’t, what would any of this be for? Nothing, that’s what. We can’t let that happen.

You don’t want your dog to go around just looking like a dog this year, do you? No, of course not. It’s not like there are only costumes for one time out of the whole year, right? Halloween is nice, but that time of year has come and gone, and your dog still wants to wear a delightful outfit. There’s all kinds of precious-looking pet costumes, including ones that can make your dog into a butterfly, a pirate, or even Michael Jackson (it’s truly terrifying, as you can see). I dare say that your dog would thank you for such a thing, if they could.

So are you convinced now that the best idea for your dog is to put it in a hilarious costume? I know I am. If you’re looking for the sort of costumes pictured, you can take a gander at those and a whole lot more by following some of the links throughout this article. Unfortunately, there are currently no selections for cats, but that might change…once cats become slightly more agreeable creatures.
