What? Dog sweaters?
The couple’s friend spun the dog hair into wool for the jumpers |
A Newcastle couple have found a unique way of keeping their beloved dead pets close to their hearts - by having the dog hair made into woolly jumpers. Beth and Brian Willis lost their white Samoyed, called Kara, 12 years ago and Swedish Lapphund, Penny, in 2002.

Don’t mind saying this really FREAKS ME OUT! My saving grace of not being turned into a sweater is that I have a bizarre gland and bacteria problem that makes my fur smell. I KNOW my people wouldn’t want a sweater from my fur but even if it didn’t smell I KNOW they wouldn’t do
that because it’s just not right.
In my humble, but accurate dog’s opinion. Come on people!

I have to say, this made me laugh. Dog sweaters? I wonder if they’ll make a pair of snowpants out of their next dog.
