Green Goes to the Dogs

by Starre Vartan · 04/10/08

I already have an Earth Day outfit picked out for myself (vintage jacket, organic cotton 7′s, recycled jellies from Melissa), but what about my faithful hound dog? I adopted my gorgeous cocker spaniel from a local rescue group three years ago and he loves nothing more than a day outside. But after a winter of fluffiness, I just had him shaved down in anticipation of warmer weather, but while we’re waiting for it (!) he has been a bit chilly, necessitating a fleece jacket in the morning, and sometimes a t-shirt in the afternoon.

Since Earth Day in in a couple weeks, the weather might be warm enough for him to romp au natural- or not. You never know with Spring, so I’m going to be prepared!

This doggie t-shirt is part of a whole collection of Earth Day tees at Cafe Press printed on American Apparel stock (so it’s fairly made but NOT organic).
