I bet they’d have worn sweaters if they knew they looked that good

My response to "wolves don't wear sweaters" is "apes don't wear coats, yet here we are". Both are equally stupid. Just because a distinct other species that evolved with/from/alongside doesn't do something doesn't mean we shouldn't if it is advantageous for us.

I put boots on my dog in snow or the little turd gets snowballs frozen between his toes, chews them out, licking his feet, making them wet so snowballs attach bigger and faster, until his feet are ice balls. All this because it feels weird to him when the ice balls push on his toes so he removes them. He gets boots so the balls never form and he can run around like an idiot and enjoy the snow!

Sorry! Just to be clear this is my dog!

Didn't mean to post such a provocative title. I just think it's funny that this little blanket burrower who steals treats out of my pockets came from wolves.

He's a Whippet, of course he needs a coat!

Oh I definitely wasn't throwing shade at you! I love that your little buddy is all bundled up! I just hate the sentiment in general of people being snarky over dogs in clothes or shoes. Just had to get the rant out of my system is all!

Edit: dog tax
