Hi If I could knit I would make leg warmers for all 4 legs and feet. I can not find doggie booties small enought for Ricky. He is so tiny around his legs, he would need handmade just for him. I would like to see leg warmers that go on the legs up over the shoulders down the other leg. this way they would stay on. (one piece warmers) same with the back legs. I know they make pajamas, but those are to big in the legs for Ricky.
how about THERMOS for dogs!!! Make them like the pajama's but thermo material. I think I am going to order the pajamas for Ricky. At least it will be something to keep his poor body and legs warm somewhat. Now if I could only fine booties to fit...

To: [email protected] Date: Wednesday, November 24, 2010, 11:45 PM Glad you mentioned leg warmers, I was thinking of putting on pj's under her sweater, since they have legs. I haven't seen a full coat with legs yet, You would think that some one would make some thing like that for the toy breeds. I guess I am going to have to get booties too. Last year unknown to me they must have put that liquid stuff on my walkway for the ice because when Princess and I went out she was holding up her feet, one at a time, and would look up at me with her ears pinned back. I knew something was wrong, so I checked her feet, wiped them off and she was fine inside, but then when we stepped outside she did the same thing. So I carried her in (all 18 pounds, Lol) and washed her feet off. It wasn't the ice because she was fine when I carried her to the street. The next day I bought boots, which she manages to get off no matter what I try. I really need boots that go higher up on her leg in order for them to stay on. She now has two pairs and neither one stays on her paws. ♥ Peggy & The Girls ♥ -----Original Message----- From: Kavi <[email protected]> To: Chihuahuas <[email protected]> Sent: Thu, Nov 25, 2010 1:09 am Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] How cold is too cold for a Chi? Here is vegas the temps are dipping in the low 30's at evening and night. I put a sweatshirt/hoodie on Ricky and go. If its windy out, he does not like it at all... kinda crouches down and then sits down... turns and heads for home. If its not windy, he seems to be ok with going out doing the duty and then getting back inside! I do have potty pads on my patio that he will use. so we may resort to those when its cold. I think the most important part to keep warm on a chi is the chest and round the back, neck also. The sweatshirt hoodies work well for Ricky. He needs some leg warmers!!! little tiny ones!

The temps have dropped to the 40's and I was wondering if I put a sweater and a coat on her would that be enough to prevent her from getting chilled? She has been inside for two weeks because of the cold and or rainy weather. I am concerned that she may catch a cold. With Princess, I only put a coat on her once the temps reach freezing or below, even then she does not like it. So how cold is too cold for a Chi to be outside, even for a short 15 minute walk? And how much do you have to bundle them up? ♥ Peggy & The Girls ♥ -- Rylee O'Neill Email: [email protected] <a href="http://pitapata.com/";><img src="http://pdgm.pitapata.com/N9lQm6.png"; width="200" height="80" border="0" alt="PitaPata Dog tickers" /></a>
