It is that time of year again. The weather is dipping to freezing cold temperatures. Here are some tips to make sure your dog is protected during these cold winter months.
If you have an indoor pet, do not expect he can withstand the freezing temps any better than you can. Your pet must build up a thicker coat and their footpads need to toughen up for snow and ice.
Do not ever leave your pets outdoors without being watched when the temperatures dip to below freezing. Dog’s that get too cold can develop hypothermia or frostbite, especially on their ear tips.
Dogs that have very short coats will have less tolerance for the cold. It is recommended to have a sweater on these dogs to help them keep their body heat in while being outdoors.
Many times dogs cannot stand the ice and snow on their paws. If you notice your dog lifting his paws frequently or whining and stopping when he walks, he simply cannot stand the cold. There are dog boots available to help keep their paws from freezing outdoors. It is important to get your dog used to these boots before the cold weather hits.
Ice balls can also form in your dogs paws. This can be very painful. Dogs will whine and often stop walking and start chewing at their feet. To help prevent this from happening, trim the hair around your dog’s feet. Put a small amount of Vaseline to your dog’s feet.
