Big Red’s Best Dog Life Ever! Let Me Show You!

How to live in style in best doggie styleMy name is Red, and I am the proud owner of the blogger of this dog clothes website.  She is super nice to me, and I love her with my whole dog heart!  I am part Heeler, part Proud American Mutt.  I would like to share my doggie lifestyle with you.

Today is Halloween.  I do so love Halloween.  However, I have heard strange growlings at the dog park.  Last Saturday I was walking so well in my excellent dog harness and found out that some of my buddies are upset because they do not get to dress up.  Why not? It is a great way for you to meet other hairless, 2 legged friends.  I am so happy to see all the people that talk to my person because I look so fabulous!

Also, a few of my colleagues have been making little comments about the parade of trick or treaters  making them a little nervous.  I always ask my owner to take me out in my costume before the little two legged one’s show up.  That way, I can strut my stuff and let off a little steam before the big night.  This really helps me to not be edgy. You should suggest this to your person for next year.

My only complaint is that I don’t get to eat the little people treats in the big orange bowl.  My person always puts that bowl out of my reach.  She says that it is very dangerous for me to eat chocolate and two legged people treats.  Instead, she gets some special doggie treats for me to munch on, and she even lets me eat them while I am in my costume.  As long as she makes sure that there are  straps or rubber bands under my chin.  Like I said, I have trained her well!

I am looking forward to showing you the other exciting things that I do, after a little nap of course.

Where I live in Colorado, the weather turns on a dime.  We’ve had snow in June, and snow in Aug.  So I always have to prepare my pooches for cold weather. 

I have two herding dogs, Trixy and Turbo.  Trixy is a little Aussie and she is very, very smart and industrious!  When I first brought her home, she was bored and ate five coaches!!!  Then, I adopted a little Eskie to keep her company while I am not home.  No more coach eating.  The key is that they play together outside,  and this keeps them happy for a while if I have to go out without them. 

I also have a GIANT Rottie!!  Her name is  Rosy, and she is just the greatest giant dog.  She loves to dress up and there is nothing more cute than a large rottie in cute dog clothes.  The only problem is that it is hard to find clothes to fit her.  No need to worry about finding a sweater to fit her.  Our new Acrylic Mohair sweaters easily fit Large dogs up to 120lbs.

Now that it is fall, I never know what the Colorado weather will be like in the next couple of hours.  I would hate to have my little coach eating rascals get too cold to play outside and force me to buy yet another sofa!!  So I make sure that my wee doggy darlings are in doggy sweaters when they are out doors.

Ridiculous  you say?  Consider that dogs can be physically traumatized just like people by cold temperatures.  Dogs can get hypothermia, frostbite and can die if too cold.  Especially true for our little ones, and our younger and older pals.

The other benefit is all of the attention Trixy and Turbo get at the dog park.  Everyone wants to talk to me when we arrive in style.   I think it can be a little corny to dress our kids in matching outfits, but it is fun to dress my two trouble makers in matching sweaters.  Trixy loves the extra attention and her happy nature is amplified with all of the admiration she gets when she has on the cutest sweater. 

So, lets keep our dogs warm and stylish this winter with  a sweater or jacket.  We will feel so much better knowing that our friends are comfortable and safe.
