What an ingenious way to give shelter dogs a voice... and get them homes too! Chatterdogs.com has designed clothing for shelter dogs that speaks for them. Adopt me! Pet me! Take me home! I love cats! (Well, that last one is definitely special order....)
The idea behind this clothing is that dog vest advertising encourages more conversation and actionable responses than do traditional methods... a sign, let's say, or even a person asking for help. It's much harder to ignore a dog.
Also, by self-advertising, a dog can stand out from the crowd.... His vest can say, "I love kids!" or "I don't shed!" These statements can put some fresh ideas in the minds of passers-by like, "Doesn't shed, huh? Well, maybe I could keep a dog that doesn't shed!"
Chatterdogs.com was developed by a foster mom for shelter dogs who wanted to bring attention to the specific personality traits of each dog she sought to re-home. Her dog clothing line is simple: she has a winter vest and a summer vest, available in three sizes with a range of room in each size. The vests are Velcro-fastened.If you foster shelter dogs, you may want to check out Chatterdogs. Prices range from $19.95 to $28.95 for the vests, depending on size and style; this includes one ad on each side. Pouches and additional ads are charged separately.
That's the buzz for today!
