Hey Everyone,

My name is Olivia and i'm from the sunshine state :] I have one dog, a shih tzu named Chilli, and i love him to death!! I love large breed dogs though, especially sighthounds. I hope to get an irish wolfhound pup soon! I'm against animal cruelty, but I absolutely hate when people dress up their dogs! it just bothers me. Ive had dogs all my life and i love them will all my heart.

Well, i'm new to this site but i cant wait to get involved! Thank you all for having an introduction section!

Sincerely, Olivia from Florida Stick out tongue

Welcome; glad you joined us. Big Smile We bought a raincoat for Jessie but she didn't like wearing it so we don't put it on her, but I don't think there's anything wrong with dressing up a dog if they don't mind it. Irish Wolfhounds are awesome dogs; good luck in finding a pup.

*waves*

what part of FL are you from? We're up here in Clearwater. Your dog is adorable! I put a sweater on Casey when it gets 'cold' during the winter, but that's as far as I go for 'dressing my dog'.

I'm sure you'll love this site, welcome!

Hi Olivia!

Nice to meet you and your Shih Tzu Chilli! I'm new here as well, so hope to see more of you on the forums!

P.s. I really like IW's too! Make sure that you find a responsible breeder when looking for your pup, cause with the big guys, health testing is a priority!

I'm convinced he fell off of a pirate ship - hence the name Pirate :)
