Protect your pet in Winter

Help your pets remain happy and healthy during the colder months.
Don't leave dogs outdoors when the temperature drops. Most dogs, and all cats, are safer indoors, except when taken out for exercise.
Short-coated dogs may feel more comfortable wearing a sweater during walks
No matter what the temperature, windchill can threaten your pet's life. A dog or cat is happiest and healthiest when indoors. If your dog is an outdoor dog, he/she must be protected by a dry, draft-free doghouse that is large enough to allow him to sit and lie down comfortably, but small enough to hold in their body heat. The floor should be raised a few inches off the ground and covered with cedar shavings or straw. The house should be turned to face away from the wind, and the doorway should be covered with waterproof burlap or heavy plastic.
