ANIMALS IN TARTAN TREWS

What's your position on dressing up pets? Is this a socially acceptable pursuit? Is it ethically questionable? Does the ensuing hilarity for you, the human, justify the abject misery expressed through the eyes of a doggy-style Batman? I've seen quite a few pooches trotting about in Rural Perthshire and looking very comfortable in  tartan trews, cable knit sweaters and See-You Jimmy hats. Perhaps there are a number of attention-seeking critters who genuinely enjoy dressing up. So there's no harm in it, is there? I've also seen a number of dogs-with-owners sporting matching outfits. Clearly this is a completely different issue, and one which needs further scrutiny under Animal Protection and Mental Health legislation.  

 

   

Tartan trews chaps? I don't think so
