Does your pet enjoy wearing clothes?
Our dog really seems to like it. First, it was her collar. If you took it off, the minute she saw it again, she jumped up for you to put it back on.

Then, we bought her a Halloween costume, Yoda. She loved putting it on and when she saw the package, she got all excited and cooperated quite well to put it on. She would just sit there and let us laugh and laugh at her, although she got a bit impatient with the ears after awhile.

Then, she started dragging snow in the house because it stuck in clumps to her legs, so I got her booties. She waits at the door for you to put them on and then to take them off when she comes back in.

I think she's getting a sweater for Christmas.

What about your pet?

2. Not at all
We tried to get the dogs to wear booties to protect their pads in winter, but they don't like them at all.

4. Never tried.
His collar never stayed on for more than a few minutes before he peeled it off (he's a big longhair cat.) I probably wouldn't be able to type anymore if I tried "clothing"

5. My dog likes his Christmas collar
but I could never gt him to wear anything else. And god forbid that the cat should be subjected to such humiliation.

I had a lame dog that I made a bootie for. Ralph was an abuse victim whose leg had been partially amputated. He loved to walk, but it would irritate his wounded foot, so I made him a little bootie from an old sock and some foam rubber.

8. why do pets like wearing their collars?
I've had two that when you take it off, they can't wait until you put it back on.
