Walking the dogs in pajamas at night?

I live in a sleepy suburban neighborhood with very few people moving about after dark, and I am about to take my dogs out on their late night walk before bedtime. Would it be acceptable for me to take them on their walk wearing my pajamas (tasteful, long-sleeves, long pants) instead of putting on 'proper outdoor wear' such as a t-shirt and shorts.

Is it proper dog walking etiquette? Yea or Nay?

    If your comfortable it doesn't matter. I often walk my dog late and wear my robe over the top of my pajamas.

    i've seen others do it as well.. only once i felt a little stupid, i came across a couple walking their dog too so i was confronted straight on but it was ok :)

    Yea, it's fine. Put a jacket on over top your PJs and no-one cares. Lots of people do that, early in the morning or before going to bed.

    I even see people wearing their PJs in the grocery store---not that I'd ever go that far, but for walking the dog, I've done it, and see lots of others in the morning in the same attire.

    With dog walking etiquette I only care about how the owners and their dogs act, I wouldn't care about what the person was wearing so long as it is not insulting.

    Based on description of your neighborhood, if I saw you out it would be fine with me. I'm a guy, and wear my tshirt and sleeping pair of boxer shorts when I walk the dogs at bedtime.

    Yes ir is so okay, I do it every night, I get all comfy and just before bed time, out we go in my Jammies as well....

    Long pants and tennis shoes and long sleeve top.

    Go for it, it is dark, and very tasteful and so comfy.

    If your dogs do not mind, why should you, it is up to you and your dogs, no one else need to be involved in this decision....LOL

    I walk my dogs in my "pajamas" all the time, nothing wrong with it. Who cares even if someone did think you looked stupid. I certainly don't care if people don't like my jammies :)

    Doesn't matter, who cares what they think anyway. Its all about make sure your dogs are getting the exercise they need
