rynlingDoggy massages and canine quiche: A reporter unleashed among Japan’s pampered pooches
https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/doggy-massages-and-canine-cheesecake-a-reporter-unleashed-among-japans-pampered-pooches/2019/02/16/c5815ae0-19c4-11e9-b8e6-567190c2fd08_story.html
At a fashion show during Yokohama’s Pet Expo 2019 last month, owners paraded their pets in an array of human clothes. There was a dog in green camouflage matching its owners’, and another in a knitted hat and cardigan; there were spaniels in black jackets and jeans, dogs looking cool in leather jackets and sunglasses, and even four canines in scout uniforms. On the final day, 45-year-old Nobuyuki Masuyama won a prize with his dog Rei, a dwarf spitz-Chihuahua crossbreed dressed in a yellow coat and jeans, shoes and socks, and, like his owner, a prominent pair of glasses. A single man, Masuyama calls his dog a member of his family and admits he has an “uncountable” number of outfits for him to wear.
The text of this article isn't particularly interesting, but it's worth it for the video and the pictures. My favorite is the picture at the end where a woman is posing with her beautiful pet pig. #liveyourbestlife #goals

Date: 2019-02-25 12:44 pm (UTC)My boyfriend and I drive by this house after grocery shopping that has two pet piggies in the back yard. They're so damn cute. The family also stocks up on pumpkins during autumn for said piggies (there's like over fifty pumpkins all over their driveway, easily) and then puts out holiday piggy decorations for the winter. It makes me smile every time.
