With the development of society and the changes in people's ideas, many people now feed pet dogs. However, for pet parents, especially inexperienced novices, they don't understand many things when it comes to caring for dogs. For example, whether they should dress dogs is a controversial topic for parents. So, does dogs really need to wear clothes? When does dogs need to wear clothes?
1. Cold winter
In fact, many people think that dogs have furry hair, which is enough to keep their dogs warm, so they will not make any warm measures for their dogs even in the cold winter. In fact, this is not completely correct. For many dog breeds, even if the hair is thick in the deep winter, they need to wear clothes to keep warm, otherwise the dogs are very prone to colds. Take many small dog breeds as an example. Wearing a good-looking dress in winter makes the dog look very cute and keep it warm.
2. After the windy rain, parents sometimes have strong winds when taking their dogs out for a walk. At this time, they can also wear beautiful clothes for their dogs to resist strong winds and reduce dust accumulation on the fur.
Wearing dogs with clothes generally has two functions. First, it can prevent colds and prevent colds in winter. You can also wear thin clothes in normal times, just to look good and satisfy the owner's psychology.
In fact, in addition to the benefits of wearing dogs, there may be some hidden bad things.
3. Reduce resistance
The dog's own hair has the effect of resisting the severe cold. Many people believe that if the dog is put on thick clothes, it will greatly reduce its resistance to the severe cold. Reducing resistance will easily lead to various diseases.
4. Damage to the skin
In addition, some people believe that wearing clothes on dogs will make the dog constantly rub against the skin when walking. If the material of the clothes is hard, it will lead to the possibility of skin diseases, and even allergies and dermatitis. In addition, many clothes are worn on dogs after dyeing, and this pigment may also enter the dog's skin, causing the dog to suffer from serious skin diseases.
1. Dog Reverse Psychology
Studies have shown that when standing on the dog's standpoint, dogs do not want to wear clothes themselves, as wearing too tight is not conducive to the dog's activities. At the same time, in the eyes of other dogs, a sudden appearance of wearing clothes is likely to be regarded as an alien, resulting in a fight.
So overall, in fact, it is useless to wear dogs except for the owner who thinks it looks better. There are also some bad situations. However, if the weather is particularly cold and the dog is small in size and has poor resistance, you can put on a layer of clothes.
