The weather's been changing so we have definitely noticed a change in what people are picking up at the store. Lots of doggie coats and sweaters have been snapped up and on Saturday Buddy the poodle came in fully decked out in her sweater and top coat. She's small and it was on the cool side. She pulled it off well.
Buddy's mom selected a set of blue Muttluks to go along with the rest Buddy's ensemble. She looked pretty stunning and was nonchalant about having booties on her paws. I know the boots seem crazy to many people but with all the salt and chemicals that are spread on the road in the winter here in Boston, the poor dogs suffer like crazy unless their paws are protected. Anyone else have any thoughts on this?
Also, Nina the Dachshund/Terrier mix and her mom Lucy, (an excellent singer songwriter http://www.lucymartinez.com/)
picked up a sensible fleece lined red number to help little Nina stay warm on her walks. Nina looked great and wore the outfit out. Not sure if Nina will do booties this year, she's only about 8"-9" tall and on the older side. She doesn't do well in the snow.
Cat people have been laying in supplies of new indoor toys and the catnip has started to fly as well. Everyone says that their kitties go a touch stir crazy when the weather changes even if they are indoor cats. Animals are so much more in touch with what is going on in the natural world than we are.
