I’m in S.E. Tennessee near Georgia so our winters are pretty mild. All of my outside dogs love cold weather and I always put clean hay and shavings in their houses. Our summers are more brutal than our winters but they have a huge shade tree in the yard and “swimming pools” made from large heavy rubber stock tanks that they get in when it’s hot. I also take them swimming at the farm pond. :-) They are also very good to sleep together in winter if it gets really cold. My JRT has a fenced yard at the end of the house where he plays with Sara, the Aussie mix that my neighbor left me with. She is an outside dog but he’s indoor/outdoor but always indoors at night and when it’s cold. The good thing is that I have an enclosed shed with windows that the outside dogs can be put in at night if it were to get unusually cold. I always make sure they are cared for, indoors or out.

Hey, SR: Do you know of anyone who operates a ping list for info on dogs or wolves on FR? I have some very scary news about Canadian wolves a friend is currently experiencing and would like to get the word out. It is something everyone should be aware of. Please FReepmail me in response. Thank you. Paperdoll
