Best-Dressed Pet: Weird and Wacky Animal Apparel


If you have a dog (or know someone who does), chances are good that the dog is better-dressed than most people. Doggie clothes are big business. According to the American Pet Products Association, we spent over ten billion dollars on pet supplies and accessories in 2009, not including food or veterinary care. That’s ten billion dollars spent on sparkly collars, fuzzy sweaters, and all manner of bizarre and borderline ridiculous pieces of apparel. And if you thought cats were safe from the pet-cessory craze, think again.

Dog-kini

So much for being jealous about pets’ ability to run around naked. If you’re worried that your pup’s showing a little too much fur at the beach, outfit her with the Sunset Red HulaHound Bikini from the Posh Puppy Boutique. ($29.99)

These are all so ridiculous! But having said that...I kind of want to get my friend's puppy a Snuggie. It'd be so cute!
That blond wig is killing me ... I can't believe these animals had the patience to keep these costumes on even long enough for a photo.

I want to say that the butt cover is a good idea, because it is. But it's just so .... wrong. So very wrong.
It feels good to write.
