chiang mai is in the north of thailand, and it gets cold here this time of year--sometimes down to 60 degrees! brrrrr!!! so all of the thoughtful and concerned dog owners of chiang mai dress their pet dogs up in little warming outfits--sometimes they get blankets too.... it's funny to think of the poor wretched street dogs of moscow--scrounging out a living in the bitter cold of the russian winter, ala "heart of a dog", meanwhile the domestic dogs of chiang mai never feel the bitter nip of 65 degrees.
