The Social Status of Dogs
In today's world you see dogs everywhere.
Everybody knows there is nothing cuter than a puppy at play.
Some women even carry those tiny dogs in their purse's.
It is not uncommon to see the dogs dressed up or have their fur or hair treated as if it were human hair.
I believe this raises some concern about either the safety of these dogs or the ethical treatment of dogs.
Do dogs really want clips or scrunchies in their fur? Do they want nail polish on their paws? How uncomfortable is it for a little dog to wear a skirt or a hat or a full body costume? What happens if dogs eat this material? Will it harm them or will they choke on it? To me it seems like dogs are being used more for a social status, it also seems like more people are treating their dogs like a brother or sister or even how they would treat their child.
Some people might even call it a fad.
However there are good things that come out of this, dogs may be kept warmer from clothes or costumes.
The dog may receive more positive attention if it is wearing something funny or cute, and we all know dogs love attention.
The perception of dogs has changed in America and it seems like this trend is only going to grow.
Since America is celebrity obsessed, every time you look in one of those magazines I'm sure you will see a picture of a dog being dressed up or something along those lines.
