It's the only time I've ever seen it, but my dog is all about dressing up. Except for Halloween, we only dress him up for warmth instead of cuteness so that's probably a factor.

I've seen numerous doggy strollers in Philly.

Really? That was a new one for me. Lol. I can't stomach people who treat dogs that way.

What kind of dog you got, Frown?

Jack russel/bassett hound/sharpei/beagle/etc.

I also have a Shiba Inu who doesn't do much because of his epilepsy meds.

I remember that dog as dog #1, the friendly dog.

Dog #2 was the one that looked vicious.

That is one cute dog.

Sorry to hear the other one has epilepsy; I had one once, a Golden Retriever/Lab cross, and it was horrifying to see him, not only take his fits (as we tried to help him through them) but to know he didn't understand what was happening. I mean, my sister (my other sister) has this too and it's ****ing terrifying, but at least she knows what's happening to her. Poor dog. Is he old?

Ja the fits are awful. Giving them honey raises their blood sugar and has been pretty effective based on my anecdotal evidence, but even then it takes a minute it so to start working and there's nothing you can do until it subsides. He's four years old.

I'd post a pic but I don't know if little Leo can handle all of the hurtful comments from MLM.

I'm sure if he knows he has a condition the Monkey will be kind.
We never got any treatment for Bruce (wasn't anything like that here in the eighties); all we could do was wrap him in towels and keep petting him till the fit subsided. The way his legs would stiffen was really scary, and makes me glad I never have to see my sister like that. Not sure I could handle that with a human.
