I love the dog charms! I know some people think they're a bit pricey but actually, they're huge charms! I bought the Brando one in November but I wasn't careful with it. I clipped it on my bag when I carried it to the temple on Lunar New Year and this lady's scarf got caught on one of the eyes. Her scarf pulled the eye out - I still have to bring it back in to the boutique to get it repaired...
I don't know about having one permanently attached to my shoes or bags though...
papertiger: I really like the one that's on the
gucci UK site - the dorothy one is cute!!! I wish they offer it in the US!
