My Beef with Dog Jackets

If god wanted dogs to wear jackets, he would have given them opposable thumbs, so they could knit sweaters and sew jackets. But, he didn’t; he gave them fur instead. Most dogs that wear jackets probably don’t need them. They may even overheat with one on. The ones that do need a jacket are dogs that man has bred to be too small, lack too much fur or have moved the dogs to a climate they are not suited for. I have pity on the dogs that are forced to wear clothes. They know it is not right and they must feel ashamed. Poor little guys; half dressed. If they are to wear jackets for dogs, where are the pants? The vests? The ties? If you want to dress them up, at least have the decency to fully dress them. Imagine if your parents only bought you a jacket as a child. If you made it to adulthood, you would be a weird one.
