Do you think it's ethical for dogs to wear other animal materials?

Jesse Lirette (Owner, LA Doggie Style) gives expert video advice on: What shouldn't I put on my dog?; Do you think it's ethical for dogs to wear other animal materials?; Should I dress a big dog? and more...

That's a very touchy question. I mean if we look at everything and look at across the board, we have them wearing leather, which is on their collar, which is the biggest seller in collars is very nice leather. But if we talk about furs, I find it unethical that in our industry we are finding out that we have synthetic furs but then sometimes we don't notice synthetic furs and they end up being in real animals fur. I just don't believe in it. I don't think a dog with fur should be wearing another dog's fur. I just don't feel that is appropriate. We don't personally, you know, work in that direction but it depends on the designer and if the designer can stand behind this product and he wants to put an animal in that, who am I to say you're wrong but I still have my own beliefs. You don't see fur in my industry, I mean in my shop except on your dog.
