Happy Halloween!

Lola is not much for trick or treating, but she does put on her dinosaur costume every year!
What does your dog get dressed up as for Halloween?  Let me know!

Chihuahua Clothing: Function or Fashion?

It was 11 degrees yesterday morning when I got up to let the dogs out.  Lola ran out on to the deck, turned around and ran right back into the house.  This is definitely a signal that if I don't want her using the pee pads (or worse, the rugs) that I have to put a jacket or fleece garment on her to keep her warm enough to do her business.


This is Lola's blaze orange sweater that she wears when we go hiking during hunting season.  You can tell by the expression on her face that she does not like wearing it, even though it keeps her safe.  I knitted this wool cable sweater for her, but she still doesn't appreciate its worth.
