Winter sweaters and jackets

I have a sweater and a coat and Alex does not mind either. In fact he gets as excited by the coats as he does by the leash. My problem is with the boots I got. He just stands there in them and looks like I have hurt him or something. When he does try to walk, he can't stand up. Do they take a long time in getting used to? I even tried to get him used to having something on his feet by putting on baby socks and he acted the same. The 1st pair I thought were a little short so I exchanged them for a larger pair and I know these are plenty big enough. Anyone else have this problem?

Jane, Mom to Alex,

With Maverick, I put his boots on and right away I take him outside.
 
Kosmo and Faith both took a bit of time getting used to the muttluks. Faith still hates them, but she doesn't have much of a choice :rolleyes: I put two on in the house (1 on front and 1 on back) and left them on for about 5 minutes, then the next day I put all 4 on for 5 minutes and just gradually made them get used to it.. Faith threw a fit and wouldn't walk ANYWHERE with the booties on so I had to do a "if you want a treat, yo'ull walk to me in those shoes for it!" game. . . but she eventually got used to it and will now at least tolerate it :flwr:
