Any ideas? Winter is coming fassst up here and they will be needing some new coats before the snow is up and over their nekkid little bully bellies! Thanks, Jaeden, Tydo & Brooklyn. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 DMX has been under heavy scrutiny for his dog fighting videos and reported participation. but he is started a clothing lind for urban dogs called "Boomer 129" named for him favorite dog and the street he grew up on. it looks pretty good although they havent officailly released the clothes there have been a few desigs released and i am very interested myself. take a look: http://www.boomer129.com/ Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 Thanks. I knew about that clothing line already. But I REFUSE to support that piece of sheet. I use to like his music, but after his animal cruelity charges, actually reading his lyrics with all the dog fighting references..and he admitted in his book that he did in fact, at one time..fight dogs. I have no respect for him, and though his hoodie for dogos is what I am looking for....it aint happening! But thanks. And I really hope you find your sweet angel face Snow White soon. :cry: Deja is simply stunning! :D Quote
Sanvean Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 The Drs. Foster and Smith catalog has some nice, simple doggie coats and sweaters. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 believe it or not, the petco and petsmart websites actually have a lot of cute stuff. tons more than in the actual stores. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 I have looked at Petco and Pet'certa...they just don't have what I am looking for. I think I am going to pull out the sewing machine, and get busy! I hate sewing but got keep the babies bellies warm! Thanks for all the replies though, I will let you know what I come up with! :lol: Quote
mydogroxy Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 absolutely the cutest stuff ever! http://trixieandpeanut.com Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 try www.fidofleece.com these are very nice an what I like most about them is they close on top along the spine and provide much more belly coverage than most. Very simply styling and very warm. Mary likes hers a lot. Quote
Peng1zrule Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 I see people agonizing over these things every year (especially people with larger dogs) a quick cover up for a five minute outing (like for the bathroom) ---go to walmart or super k or target or whatever. find the men's clothing section. buy hunting vests. you can also get those padded women's or childrens vests, if you like patterns or need smaller sizes. put them on so that they velcro or zip or snap up the back. ta da! dog's vital organs are warm enough while the dog goes out to pee. For longer outings, I go to dr foster and smith or jeffers and order from the catalog, those four-leg coverage sweat suits or sweaters. even the pajamas for the smaller babies. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 Trixie and Peanut rock! I bought collars, leashes and clothes. Thank you!!!! Quote
mydogroxy Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 haha! that's great! i plan on buying roxy a bunch of stuff soon too. peng1zrule: i don't think anyone's agoinizing here. we just like to spoil our poochies! Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 I honestly am not a huge fan of dog coats on big dogs...but up here it's -25 to -40 most winters. It's a need, not a want! But after checking out that site mydogroxy linked...I am addicted. I bought um four coats for each dog, all matching! And two collars with matching leashes...needless to say, I spent WAY too much money. But my dogs ARENT spoiled! :roll: Quote
courtnek Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 I'm not a big fan of clothes for dogs, but if I lived in those temperatures I would have coats for both Freebee and Laurel - short haired dogs need a little extra protection. Those styles were cute. :) Quote
bk_blue Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 Driza-Bone coats- Rinny had one (well, BK can wear it now, if we can find it :lol: ). They are waterproof and warm and for tough dogs. :lol: :lol: More info here: http://www.buyinaustralia.com/en-us/dept_23.html (scroll down to the very bottom) Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 STOP! I am going to go broke! LOL! I bought..... For my Jaeden, in baby pink because she's the little princess! Again for Jaeden...I know it's a bit strange..but I like it! And that for the king, Brooklyn! Omg...I am turning into one of those people with matching sweaters for them and their little dogs. Hrmm I wonder if there are bags I could buy for carrying Jaeden around? hahaha 43 lbs of Pit bull in a plaid tote..wouldn't that be a sight? Quote
mydogroxy Posted September 24, 2003 Posted September 24, 2003 i'm thinking about buying that sweater with the crown on it for roxy. i'd like to get one of those little hoodies, but they don't carry big enough sizes for her. you must have spent a fortune, some of that stuff is expensive! Quote
xavierandrea Posted September 25, 2003 Posted September 25, 2003 To ThePoutyPitbull.... I am confused a while back you said you own 2 Pitts, but you just posted you are looking for clothes for your Bulldogs. Did you just get more doggies??? ( I must have missed it. ) The more the merrier!!! Hope to see pictures...... Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 25, 2003 Posted September 25, 2003 lots of people refer to pits as bulldogs. it goes back to the breeding of them some people think that there is no terrier in the APBT and say that the bulldogs was crossed in instead, others just say that there is bulldog in as well Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 25, 2003 Posted September 25, 2003 Guest was right! I meant my Pit bulldogs..Pit bulls, if you will! :D I do only have the two that are mine own, and one foster/rescue/someone ditched dog looking for a new home! So about the confusion! Also no more pit'ers, bulldogs or otherwise for me...for awhile. Famous last words. 8) Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 26, 2003 Posted September 26, 2003 To Pouty Pitbull. I'm confused by your sig - ""Please don't breed or buy, when Pit bulls in shelters die" You not only bought your puppy, but bought her from a backyard breeder, correct? Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 26, 2003 Posted September 26, 2003 Yup, I did. They were going to keep her a breed her, so instead of adding to their collect of dogs. I bought her. It was not the way I wanted to go, but I did. And I am not sorry that I did. I am sorry I supported a backyard breeder, but I would rather have her here with me, spayed..then pumping out more puppies. In the future I would not take the same route, but I do not regret doing it. I think it's a lot better to adopt, hence the signature. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted September 26, 2003 Posted September 26, 2003 It was pretty hard to just leave her there, she was the last one. And I didnt know what they would really do with her. I loved her the moment I met her, scammed or not (though Im sure I was) I wasnt leaving her there. I would never do it again. :oops: But I am glad I did that first and last time. I guess I thought more then likely these people will breed her, use her or sell her to someone who wont care about her. She will have a crappy life, probably end up in a shelter at some point, if not then probably later. By then who knows what kind of life she would have had? :oops: At least this way she's loved, spayed, safe and most of all happy. I am not pleased with myself for buying her, and adding to the byb's profit and buisness. And I do think about the fact that there were and still are so many adoptable Pit bulls. And that they might have used my money to simply buy more money makers, which they would have done without sadly, Im sure. :( I did what I thought was best at the time, and I am not without some shame for doing so...but I also have an amazing dog whom I love dearly. So that's really all I can say about it. :( Quote
