Fashion faux pas?

My hairy niece (ok, my sister's dog) has been having some problems with incontinence. Not all the time, but occasionally, she has a little accident. Sometimes, too, she'll leave a little present for my sister on her bedroom floor. These accidents don't happen every day, but they have been happening about once a week.

I have offered on numerous occasions to make a diaper for the dog, but my brother-in-law has declined. He says he would be embarrassed for people to see his dog wearing a diaper.

Although I may be a little prejudice, as I make dog diapers every day, I have several objections to this argument.

1. A dog diaper saves carpeting and furniture. It prevents leaks and accidents from ruining your home.

2. Soft fleece dog diapers are not uncomfortable for your pet. Most dogs adjust to the dog diaper within a few minutes. Some dogs may require a couple of try-ons to get used to having something against their skin, but very few dogs refuse to wear the diaper.

3. Is Vogue at your house covering your dog for its monthly cover? How many people see your dog everyday? Aren't most of the people that come into contact with your dog each day friends and family? Will they really make fun of your dog for wearing a diaper?

My brother-in-law recently changed his mind about the dog diaper when he went on vacation and needed to have a dog sitter keep the dog at another home for awhile. He selected a black diaper to match the dog's fur. The black diaper matches her coat perfectly, and you can't even hardly tell she's wearing it.

I'm happy to say there were no accidents while her owners were gone.

I'm also glad to say no fashion crimes were committed in the process.
