Trends in Dog Fashion

Posted by Clare Bristow | 2 Comments

I've never been one for putting clothes on my dogs - apart from the fact that Zoe and Fritz are too big for wearing doggie t-shirts and hoodies, I think dog clothes are better suited to small dogs.

However, Zoe and Fritz have owned many a fancy collar, so I think that in a small way they are followers of dog fashion.

In these 7 short videos Jesse Lirette (the owner and head groomer at LADoggieStyle) talks about dog fashion trends and answers these questions:

Hypothermia and frostbite are two potential problems your dog can suffer from in winter .

Both occur when your dog has been exposed to the cold for too long, and whilst hypothermia and frostbite are treatable they may leave lasting tissue damage if the symptoms are not spotted and treated promptly.

Which dogs are most susceptible ?

  • short haired dogs;
  • small dogs;
  • wet dogs;
  • dogs sensitive to cold weather; and
  • dogs that are outside for long periods of time who do not have access to warm and dry shelter.

Why - because for one reason or another (be it an environmental, genetic or health reason) these dogs find it more difficult to keep their bodies at their normal temperature than dogs who don't fall into any of these categories.
