You might think that because your dog is covered in a fur coat from head to foot that it will be protected against frostbite. However, you would be wrong. Some breeds of dogs such as, Bernese Mountain Dogs, Huskies and, Malamutes are almost made for winter, most others are definitely not and like humans, if they are left out in the cold for too long, frostbite is almost inevitable.

Just like humans, dogs like their own space. Dog crates, kennels, and exercise pens are widely available. But which option is right for your dog?

When winter chills strike we can put on a sweater, crank up the heating, or put another log on the fire. Your pets grow a winter coat but it is not always enough. There are things you can do to make your pets healthier, safer, and more comfortable through the winter months.
