The shoes you can't use

It was seeing these doggie shoes that started me on the kick to feature silly and overpriced accessories for dogs.

We are not talking about shoes to keep your dogs feet warm and protected from ice and snow. We are not talking about special boots to keep your dog from slipping on the floor. We are talking accessory shoes for your dog.

These shoes are 63.99 at www.tinypawsco.com and they come with socks. I can usually buy shoes and socks for all three of my HUMAN kids for that price.

You laugh at this, but here in Orange and Los Angeles county - you see this all over!

Most of the crap that we buy for our dogs is not needed. And that poor dog looks ridiculous! That constitutes cruel and unusual punishment!

They look ridiculous even if they have a valid reason, but this, in the name of fashion, is just over the top! Dogs have no business wearing shoes! Maybe these owners' should take their dogs' shoe allowance and and use it to help some underprivilaged kids who really need them!
