Awesome! Our two chis don't like to keep their sweaters on all the time either, so we just put them on when it's really cold outside--otherwise our home is fairly comfortable, and they are strictly indoor...we use the puppy pads and they do extremely well with them (actually not puppy pads, but the adult incontinence pads). We have a heating pad on the floor for both of them to lay down on in the living room (we like to have them around us all the time--they are so precious!) How do your pups like the Christmas decorations? Trees, etc? Mine barely pay attention to them! :)
