Dear Miss Fifi: 

Why do people put clothes on their pets? It looks stupid to see a dog, especially a proud, big dog in a shirt and pants or a big cat in a skirt. Ok, for a coat for those one fur layer in the winter—but northern dogs (like huskies and shepherds) are suited for the cold here. Clothes make them look silly and humiliated.

Dear John: 

The right fashion and accessories can make any canine or feline all the more lovely. Perhaps you've just seen the bargain basement variety of clothing ... that's an injustice regardless of breed. Plus, it's all opinion. For example, why just wear any plain ol' drab sweater for an evening stroll through the neighborhood when you can wear faux-leopard fur trimmed chasmere? Hmpf.
