hello all,
I have a pug that needs to stay warm this winter and I was wondering if anyone has a favorite.  Personally, I would love a north face down vest just like mine for her, but I didn't see any for sale. Thanks.

I'm between dogs right now, but the past few weeks I've been working in snow at a ski area up at 12000 ft and a guy I work with has a pitbull mix with him that wears Fido Fleece, apparently with good success:

 I've liked all of the ruffwear products my dog has ever had.  All the mushers I've talked to like foot pads.  I don't know who makes them, but they sell them in the dog shops around here.

If you have a pug you probably need to know about the recall:

This breed most certainly would not be around if it weren't for humans helping, that's for sure.  But oh man are they hilarious and agreeable.

 To answer the outer wear question for your Pug, my pug wears a fleece turtle neck jacket from ORVIS. Iaeb55b0d_CIMG6278.JPGt works great and she loves it. You can order them online from the orvis site. It comes in a variety of colors. Here is a picture of my dad cross country skiing with ELoise the pug wearing her jacket :)
