In case I don’t say it enough, I love these guys. Even though they bark every time they hear the elevator open (and every time they think they hear the elevator open, too). I love them even though they put up a struggle every time they have to go out for a walk. And even though they take up so much bed space that I sometimes wind up sleeping with one leg on the floor.
Bruno and Fritz are the best. How I ever existed without either of them in my life is unfathomable.

Dogs are funny that way. I have no idea how I lived for so long without mine!
Where did you find those sweaters?
I needed that… thanks. They are too much!
what?? Most dogs love to go on walks!
Those sweaters are utterly adorable, and I’m sure you’ll get lots of oohs and ahhs over the boys if they wear them while out on a walk.
I am in love with their harnesses – I have the hardest time fitting my chihuahua and his barrel chest.

Gotta love the buddy belts (yay Canada!). And Bruno’s sweater is badass.
Love their outfits!

I don’t know how I lived before I got my dog too. His first birthday is next month! Just got him a buddy belt too. He is a pug and it is the best harness I ever got him. No matter how stressed I am, I just pet him and all is right with the world.
I always complain about my dogs, but am like you. They are my babies
I love the way they are rocking that MichelleO cardi/belt look!
Bruno & Fritz are totally adorable …I love them too! We have two Bichons…Oscar & Sadie and I feel EXACTLY the same about them..O&S are twins (the only two in the litter) and I think they are roughly the same age as Bruno (they will be 7 in April). Funny how such little creatures take up so much space in bed…wish they would learn to sleep parallel to us rather than perpendicularly (is that a word??). B&F and O&S forEVER!
Awww! Loving the jolly roger sweater.
Have a fun weekend with your little scallywags 🙂
I’m the same way with my cats… I have to vacuum constantly cos of their fur and even though I complain about it, I couldn’t live without them 🙂 Love their sweaters! My MIL put her Bichon Frises in sweaters and their cuteness went up a couple notches hehe
I feel the exact same way about my dogs–2 mutts that weigh about 60+ lbs each and sleep in the bed with my husband and me every night. We are constantly fighting for covers and space, but I wouldn’t have it any other way 🙂
What kind of harnesses are they wearing? I am looking for a new alternative for my pug (who pulls a lot while walking)
oohh…Anna, Fritz has the same sweater as my chihuahua!

Anna, I think you are just the best.
I feel that way about my cats, even though they’ve destroyed my sofa and I have to have two-sided tape on every piece of furniture in the house to deter scratching.
Those little outfits just made me laugh. In a good way. So cute!:)
I’m surprised they aren’t keen to get into the street and show off those awesome outfits!
i really want to leave a comment, but these photos are too cute for words! i feel the same way about my beast as you do about B+F. hope you all have a good weekend…
Wow. My two little yappers are the same way. But I don’t know what I would do if I didn’t have them to alert me to potential (they have many, many, many false alarms) to action. Love the sweaters!
Okay…that skull sweater is tied for cutest thing I’ve seen in the span of five minutes.
Mark, the harnesses appear to be Buddy Belts. They are expensive but definitely worth it. I have one for my bostie.

Cute sweaters! I love my dog too. Can’t remember ever life without him!
Thanks for the very sweet pics 🙂 hum … I was wondering about your cat … Is somebody looking after it when u live in the city?
a biker and bumblebee? OMG
Thanks for starting me off on my weekend with so much cuteness !!!
Hahahahaha….funny little creatures and cool looking too ;o)
Aw, those photos are so lovely! I love the angle they were taken from!
So so cute! Now I want a doggie to dress up!

Gorgeous little things! Makes me wish I could have a dog too… oh well, one day maybe!
anna – yes they are such lovely parts of our lives and the best family members (like no other!)
Beautiful beautiful dogs. I remember you had problems with them chewing up your furniture a while back but do you mind me asking, how are you getting on with the long-haired dogs on gorgeous textiles conundrum? Do your dogs shed much hair? My dog is in great health, brushed regularly and I love him to bits, but the lovely Ikea Skicka Blanket is more Irish mutt than Swedish sheep at this stage even though he’s not supposed to be allowed near it.
Thanks for reminding me that the goodness outweighs all else..I was thinking I could never ever get another cat, but maybe one day it will happen again (in the meantime I have chatty Isha waking me up 10 times through the night, and meowing like she’s irritated if I pet her at the wrong time but she’s sweet and adorable and when she plunks her heavy dense body onto my chest at night and lets me pet her head, none of that other stuff matters).
Oh please share where you got the skull sweater – my little maltese tobi would love one.
I love your blog when you feature your gorgeous dogs x
Hi Anna,
I passed The Sunshine Award on to you…Happy Blogging!

Those are the two best dog names EVAR. Our daughter named our Boston Terrier, Cherry. When we thought we would prefer something else, she said, “Fine. You call her what you want and I’ll call her, Cherry.” -in such a nice way though, like she (4 years old then) was really trying to be helpful =)
It’s cold here and our pup requires a couple LONG walks each day. My husband thinks the sweaters are ridiculous, but her coat is short right now, I figure she has to be cold. I wish I could find a sweater that would grow with her. Yours are so stylish!
Hey Anna, Love the cute black and white throw on the bed… where can it be bought? Bruno’s cute too, of course!… and Fritz!
Thanks
I guess I should just always include a product list with my posts!
The skull sweater is from Kwigy-Bo.
The striped sweater is from Target.
The harnesses are Buddy Belts.
The blanket is from Crate & Barrel.
With the exception of the Buddy Belts, all of these items were purchased 1-6 years ago, so I don’t know what’s still available.
yay for doggies! and yay for the buddy belts!
OMG, is there anything better then pirate dog?
Oh, I hear ya! I have 12 and I wonder the same thing every day. I can’t imagine a life with out them and I never want to.
My husband and I just got our dog yesterday (!) and he’s a bit frustrating, but we’re already so in love with him that we pretty much don’t care about his flaws!
Aww love their outfits! I love my cat the way you love your dogs. Such good company and entertainment!
wow. great photos! i totally know what you mean. my husband and I have a dog and half the time I want to scream at him because he is so difficult/loud/poops/requires my only free time but i love him!! cute dogs, and lovely blog. i’ll be back for sure.

Anna – Your photos of the pups are amazing!
Hello! I love my dog too. He never ever barks though 🙁
He is a cavalier king and his name is Dante. I even take him to work sometimes 🙂
Too cute!!!!
