Fashion

Japan’s fondness for dainty and diminutive dogs shows no sign of fading, with miniature mutts milling about all over the metropolis. But having a canine that is considered cute is apparently not good enough anymore, with clothes and carrying contraptions deemed de rigueur — the former, in particular, now so normal that it’s increasingly unusual to see a not so big dog naked.

And then even when one does, it seems natural colourings clearly aren’t cute enough.

The sight of dogs being carted or carried around the capital isn’t an uncommon one, but this little fella is undoubtedly only being lugged about because he’s way too cool to walk — let alone foul the pavement like his family.
