After hours of painstaking research involving a loiter and a leisurely look around, it seems fair to say that there are now far more carefully clothed canines than kimonos in the Japanese capital.
A finding that appears to prove that the so-called pet boom is now officially far more than a fleeting fad, meaning maybe ‘movement’ would be a much better moniker. A word that not only describes Japan’s new found devotion to diminutive dogs, but also the fear non-fans have of their faeces.
Although that said, the new plan of putting plasters over their posteriors in public to stop them from pooing may prove to be perfect.

The band aid on the arse is hilarious!

Great find with that band-aid covered butt. Would that even work?
I’d like to know how many of these tiny dogs (I refer to them as clean rats) get accidentally crushed and or stepped on and killed? I’d be constantly worrying about sitting on it or stepping on it.
