Coats

There is a real chill in the air in the morning and when I walk my dog, Bella, I put on her coat so she can be as warm as I am.  It is very important to keep small dogs warm in the colder months.  They are so close to the ground and for my Min Pin she has short hair and she needs her dog coats.

Maybe some of us have a tendency to forget about our dog comfort.  You know some people say, “they’re just dogs”; however, small dogs need the extra protection due to their size.  So when you’re out walking your little dog don’t forget the dog sweaters and dog coats that are available to keep them warm, fashionable and healthy.



Boxer Puppy

Dog Jackets

I have just become a new doggy grandma.  My son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter just brought home a new Boxer puppy.  Her name is Roxie and she is just the cutest thing.  With those long legs and big feet the vet says she should weigh about 100 lbs.  Thus some interesting facts about Boxers.

They are considered guard dogs because they symbolize strength, agility and awareness.  This is why my son likes Boxers with  Roxie being his second one.  He wants his family to have protection and with their amazing loud bark they certainly would scare off anyone.

What these dogs need most is love.  They are very social and love to be around people.  They don’t do well when they are left alone for very long.  When they know that you are a friend, they become your best friend in return.  Boxers sure know how to give you that look with caring eyes and they know how to give comfort during sad times.  They also know how to “beg for treats”.

I found out that Boxers are very sensitive to extreme temperatures.  In times when it is to hot or cold the Boxers really need extra care.  They can overheat in the hot temperatures and get to cold in the winter months.  Their hair is short and close to the skin which makes very sensitive to the cold.  They do better if they can be in the house during extreme weather conditions.

So for my new Granddog, for the winter, she will be in a cute dog jacket and in the summer one of the great looking jeweled dog collars will be perfect.



Small Pups Are So Cute!

Dog Sweaters

Little dogs such as the Shih Tzu, Pomeranian, Chihuahua, and Yorkie breeds are small and have are best known for their high energy.  These dogs are especially great if you’re in a small space.  They do not shed as much and produce less dander than the larger dogs which makes them great pets for people with allergies.

Although these pets are fun they are small and these small animals may acquire health problems.  Arthritis, broken or fractured bones, loss of eyesight, hair or smell are very common due to their small frames.  It is very important to keep this in mind although they can reach up to fourteen or fifteen years of age, these small dogs may have health issues later in their life.

One of the most fun things to do with you tiny dog is to dress them when it’s cold outside.  Small dogs require warm clothes.  Since they are so small they have a tendency to get cold.  The warm dog sweaters and dog jackets will keep your tiny puppy warm when the ground is cold and covered with snow. A lightweight dog t-shirt is also great for these small breeds while they are in the house. 

Enjoy your tiny friend and be sure to keep them close.  They require a lot of attention and they want that attention from you their best friend.

Dog Carriers

If you’re like me you like to show off your dog.  I like to take Ricky with me on my trips to the park when I exercise.  I found the front style dog carriers do the trick for me.  I can have him close when I walk and he enjoys the great outdoors.

Dogs like to go along all the time and I found with a great looking small dog carrier my dog can be with me on my short trips.  If he gets a little tired he can curl up in the bottom and take one of the many naps he takes during the day.  Dog’s life gotta love it.

Holiday dog clothes are so cute and I couldn’t hardly decide what to get but when I saw this outfit I knew is was the one.  Maybe I’ll let her wear it for Halloween!

I am always looking for cute dog dresses for my little dog to wear.  She is pretty, prissy and loves to be the center of attention.  There is such a variety of dog clothes to choose from that it’s really hard to make a decision. 

I can almost guarantee that she will like whatever I put on her.  She loves to dress up in her designer dog clothes because she knows she looks so stylish.  I like to make her happy so I usually give her what she wants.  Isn’t that what we all do for our dogs?

It’s all about the fashion for the holidays.  Whether it be people or dogs we all like to look our best.  My little dog just loves to put on her dresses.  She is really small and I don’t like to overwhelm her with a lot of excess clothing so when the holidays come around I look for something a little less bulky.

She loves to show off her holiday dog clothes and she looks so cute in them.  She’ll get a lot of attention this Halloween in her cute dog dress.

Dog Collars

I try to keep up with the styles and I found this cute Skull and Crossbones collar for my dog to wear.  I see so much of this style that I thought my dog had to be the one sporting this style.

I love these twinkle dog collars because the twinkle stays on the collar and not all over everything.  The crystal rhinestones are so sparkly also.  He looks fabulous.
