    What a weird idea, I don’t even put my headgear on often, and dogs do not disturb the bees nearly as much as I do and generally see every single one and keep away.

    Looks cute though.

        I didn’t even make the suit! It just showed up with it one day to annoy me even when I hid in a cloud of killer bees!

    Don’t beekeepers still get stung through their suit sometimes? I wouldn’t want to bring a dog into that environment even with protection.

    Though I guess the suit plus fur might force enough distance that the stinger couldn’t reach their skin?

      My friend wears full armor because he’ll get in trouble if he has a sting marks on his job (he is a therapist or something); he never gets any bites. I sometimes wear that mesh hat and get about 10-20 stings a year (almost all from accidentally squishing a bee with my fingers, and then a few on winter medication when they get really angry when I open their home at really cold weather)
