Video - 18th Century Spanish Aristocrats and Their Sleeve-Dwelling 'Perritos'!
Did you know that in the 18th century, the Spanish aristocracy had a rather peculiar obsession with little dogs, known as "perritos"? These fluffy companions were so adored that they were often pampered more than the aristocrats' own children. Some perritos even had their own miniature beds and were fed gourmet meals. But wait, it gets crazier! Aristocratic women would carry these tiny dogs in their sleeves to keep their hands warm during cold winters. Imagine going to a fancy ball and instead of a handkerchief, a little dog pops out of a sleeve! Talk about a fur-tastic accessory. So next time you see a pampered pooch, remember they might just be channeling their inner perrito royalty. Have you heard of any other bizarre pet obsessions in history? Share in the comments!
