  • Now, some if this is going waaaaaay overboard! I think if anyone put my underwear on the dog I'd have to, well, kill 'em!

    The ones where they are actually made to look like small people, the owners need help. And the Weimeraner (spelling?) knows she looks ridiculous. And isn't happy about it.

    But ya' gotta admit, the hot-dogs are funny. I don't think that owner went too far.

    Thanks for digging these up, Dan!:D

  • I'd never put it on Medjai, but I find the costumes that turn the dog into a horse with it's own little cowboy hilarious.

  • I would not put any of those onto Jaycee but the main thing here is "Some people never have kids". Some people cannot have kids and some have lots of money and to them this is there child.

    Everyone has to have something to love so it is a dog, cat, rabbit, bird while we may not like what they do with there dogs. If they knew each of us they may not like the way we have raised our children.

  • I think the costumes are pretty funny though I wouldn't do it. Most dogs are go with the flow for a couple of hours and if the dog's not miserable or really uncomfortable it's their business. My last 2 Basenjis would wear sweaters for a walk when it was really cold but when the walk was done it was "get this off me now"!. Now I haven't tried putting a sweater on Buddy because it has not been very cold and his fur is pretty thick but I'm pretty sure he would rip off a costume in a minute. I was in Target on Sunday and they had dog costumes, even had the hot dog one.

  • I've seen these all before, but I still love the spider and the hot dogs…:D:D:D

  • LOL. THANKs for the good laugh. What a HOOT! We talked about tu tus for the boys, but I will NOT spend $25 on each dog for something they would probably EAT. And then get sick!

  • Some of the costumes are very clever, feel sorry for the Weirmeraner (know i've spelled it wrong), it looks downright embarrased.
    Didnt dress up Benji and Max, exept for a santa hat and christmas wreath.
    Also Benji had utility clothing, that is a knitted jumper and a wax jacket. He only wore the coat in very bad weather and also the jumper. Have to say it seemed to give him a lot of cofort to be warm and cozy in his old age.
    He used to enjoy having the jumper on, trouble was it seemed to make Max fancy him for some reason and he would try to hump him.Or maybe he thought Benji had lost the plot and he was trying to dominate him and become top dog :D

    How come the invisible dogs are so much better behaved than real ones? When I run my invisible dog for agility (aka walking the course), he always qualifies. Well, except when I was running my invisible Jet the try-ing.

    Ms. Rita Jean: I have yet to locate the off switch on any Basenji and I've been around them since I was a baby. When you find it, you will let us all know, right?

    <> Well, supposed to be...that is advertising. I have lots of clients with problem 'labradoodles' and 'goldendoodles' and 'puggles'. They are no more or less likely to be the 'perfect' dog than any dog who was adopted from a shelter, or purchased from a breeder. Again, you can't MAKE a perfect dog for everybody...and IMO there are plenty of dogs out there to choose from, to find the best fit for anybody.

    Random comments on the "kill shelter" vs. "no-kill shelter" thing- I work for a no-kill shelter that rescues dogs from local kill shelters. We take ANY dog that is about to be euthanized. We have taken ones that are missing body parts (eyes, limbs, tails), we take ones that are really sick and we take ones that are really old. We have some that become "shelter sweethearts", dogs that can't get adopted and become permanent residents of the shelter or go to one of our foster homes. And TONS of puppies get euthanized all the time.
