Sweater weather

Fall started last night, around 10:30. And right on time came chillier temps (well, it was chilly pretty much the entire day). Today, it was even cooler in the morning, but the temps did climb a bit. Not enough for Sadie, apparently.

Late this afternoon, Sadie was leaning on the kid, who was attempting to do her homework (on the floor, at the coffee table in the living room). J.T. noticed Sadie shivering; the kid could feel our tan and white furry family member shaking against her. So J.T. decided Sadie needed her trusty sweater. 

Unfortunately, we have not had a lot of luck outfitting the dog. At around 45 pounds, Sadie is too big for all the cute doggie outfits little dogs can wear. In fact, I found this adorable dress two years ago, but Sadie was just a little too chesty to pull it off; she was in the biggest size PetSmart had.

The only thing that remotely fits her, but is not the least bit cute or feminine, is this sweater. Unfortunately, the sweater rides up and the buttons sometimes become undone, but it does the trick for the most part and keeps our "puppy" a little warmer than she would be au natural.

 

Hope you stay nice and toasty, Sadie!
