Does my dog need a sweater?

Ok, I am not going to lie.  At Tobiah’s expense, I would LOVE to put cute little sweaters on Z and Roo for our daily walks.  Plus, I always wonder, do dogs get cold in the winter? I mean, don’t they all need sweaters?  Sigh, to my dismay, only small dogs and dogs with short hair/thin undercoats probably need sweaters.  And apparently, dogs have higher internal temperatures than us humans- ranging from 100-102 degrees.

This brings me to the topic of snow.  In Houston, we rarely see any snow.  This year, we got one day of it. Do your dogs like it?  Rocky kept eating it and Zeus was a bit confused by it.  Pretty funny to watch for those of you who have dogs that are accustomed to snow.  LOL.

Tobiah grew up in Idaho.  I hope we can take the puppers up there one year for the holidays.  I wonder if either of them will love snow as much as this little one?  Enjoy!

Cheers and Happy Barkin’!

Annvi and Tobiah
