Doggy & Me: Dress like your pooch

Forget Mommy and me outfits. If that odd and insufferable trend of mothers and daughters wearing similar designer duds wasn't bad enough, we now have doggy and me. Kim Cattrall -- on the set of the "Sex and the City" movie -- was spotted carrying a Nancy Gonzalez handbag and a leash and collar for her pup designed by Gonzalez too. Then, there's the issue of the matching yellow sheaths. Too much.

Even scarier, Woozie Wear offers matching sweaters, rain coats, and T-shirts for dogs and their owners. Can somebody please call the ASPCA? I mean, come on. Is it fair to assume that your pet has no individuality or fashion flair? Not to mention the fact that those horizontal stripes only make that Yorkie on the right look more squat.

Good dogs, bad trend.

I wish my tongue lolled perpetually too.

I wish Chenille, my beautiful miniature poodle, would allow me to dress her once in a while. Last time I tried, she charged at me and split my lip!
