Keeping tiny dogs warm in cold weather

Keeping tiny dogs warm in cold weather.........

I have a chihuahua and he starts shaking as soon as he feels a cold wind. He always tries to get inside my coat where it's warm and he looks like a kangaroo in the sack. People freak out because he just pops his head out from the inside of my coat to see who I'm talking to.

Every winter I fuss and battle with him just to put his coat on. I make him wear a coat, a scarf and doggy shoes. He hates it for a moment but once he is outside he is not so mad because he can walk in the snow without having his feet freeze and he stays warm. When I first put on the doggy shoes it is hilarious! He start walking like he was walking on the moon, I laugh so hard but after awhile he gets used to it and he walks normal. Keep our little furry friends warm and give them a lots of love they have feelings too.

So keep your tiny dogs warms make them clothes or buy them at your local pet store, ebay has a great selection of doggy clothes at low prices. I have even seen doggy pants, which are so adorable. So if your doggy is cold, put some clothes on him:-) Dogs look so cute with doggy clothes on. My dog MIMO is my best friend and I would do anything to keep him warm and happy.
