My Poodle-Terrier Brandy wears hand knitted dog sweaters that I buy from an old woman in town that makes them.
I would buy one of these dog snow suits if I saw one in the store.

Would you???
I also have Wolf Hybrids and German Shepherds. They don't need anything for winter, they have really thick fur .

I have this thing about clothes on dogs. And my dog would eat anything I put on him anyway. But I'm moving up north and I own a 6lb yorkie. We had a cold snap here and he gets so cold he wont even go out to use the bathroom. I found him a very simple coat. It wraps around his tummy and shoulders. He LOVES it! it's soft and warm. And it's reflective for the shortening days!

Yes. Where I live winters get bitterly cold and I've got greyhounds, which not only have thin coats, they also don't have undercoat, nor do they have any body fat to help keep them warm. They all have warm fleece coats as well as boots for my little female who's feet are extremely sensitive to the cold.

This will be my dog's first winter. I bought her a coat because she is small and gets cold easily (and she hates the rain, so I can only imagine what being covered in snow is going to do for her).

My current dog, a Corgi Fluff, has plenty of fur to keep him warm.
I used to have a Beagle that had sensitive paws and he used to wear dog boots in the rain and snow.
I think a lot of small dogs need winter gear.

OK??!! and the most best thing!!!.......They look sooooooooooooooo ADORABLE!!!

It's natural. I just got a new puppy and shes only about a month old, I got her a little cute brown winter jacket and little velvet boots. She does not mind. It is a little weird, but adorable. I dont care.

No. Where I live doesn't have distinctive weather difference. It's around high 60s in winter. My dogs love it because they have long coats.

I do put clothes on my puppies. It does keep them warm in the winter and they look sooo cute. =)
I have camofluage pullovers for them and little matching boots. I think it is perfectly normal.

I have to put a coat on my Chihuahua now that winter is coming because she needs it not because I want to put it on her. Other than a coat and a collar nothing more.
