Oh my gosh.
Humans. You REALLY are
something. The lure of the
after-Christmas sale can be oh-so-attractive – frequently resulting in the purchase
of items that, well…one would never consider buying if they were not on
sale. What seems like “such a good deal”
often ends up being something that will never actually be used. Case in point: these “adorable Canadian” dog sweaters that
were on sale at – of all places – the grocery store. WHAT came over my human?
It was the 50% off. A sign that causes many humans to act without
reason. And when my human saw that – and
saw these sweaters, she thought they would be the “perfect” addition to our
wardrobe. Did she buy one? Nope – she bought two – in a size large. Thank goodness they didn’t have an extra
large – so Paxton was spared the experience...
First off, you KNOW how Frodo despises
attire. I don’t mind, but honestly, I
have no need for a sweater. But the REAL problem: the size large must be like the size large at the Dollar Store – made
for an obese Chihuahua. My human
struggled to get me into it long enough to take the photo. I couldn’t even run away – the thing is too
tight. It is like wearing a straight
jacket. My human didn’t even TRY to put
it on Frodo – he gave her the “look” and she figured it wasn’t worth the
struggle. Admittedly, I DO look cute AND patriotic in the photo – but then I always look cute. So much for that great after-Christmas bargain.
And God help us, she is going shopping again
today…
