Some people dress their pets up to protect them from the cold, snow or rain … others dress them up for special holidays.

Do you dress up your pets for fun? For Halloween, Christmas or other holidays? If you do I’d love to see your photos!

So far we haven’t dressed up our puppy and I’ve said in the past that she won’t likely ever be in a costume. We did however buy her a winter coat (that’s too big for her right now!) as she sometimes seems cold when she’s outside. We also bought her some booties for her paws to protect them from the ice and the salt people put done to melt the ice and snow. That stuff cuts their tender paws!

Ok here’s some festive animals:

A mouse to help pull the sleigh …

Turkey Dog

Santa Paws?

and Mrs. Claus Paws?

Of course we can’t forget the turkey that’s all dressed for the holidays can we?

Remember if you have any funny photos that you’d like me to post feel free to send them to me by email.

I don’t know if this started as a way for prisoners to learn a new skill that they might use when they are released from prison or if a charity minded inmate came up with the idea but either way, inmates at hte Cache County, Utah jail are knitting caps, blankets and booties for kids around the world. So far, the inmates have knitted more than 300 hats, half of which have matching booties.

Dave Evans, one of the prisoners, says that even though they are criminals they have big hearts. Jail officials are being cautious though, as knitting needles are collected and counted before the prisoners go back to their cells.
