Many dogs love the winter - but winter love dogs?
Let's face it - your dog loves her or hates winter. As human beings! If your dog loves the winter, then it's worth thinking about hazards and risks that lurk in the frozen city streets. If your dog hates winter then you need to take steps to make their rides, warm and comfortable as possible.
- Wrap up! Some dogs, like the Pyrenees, Bernese Mountain, Great races, are perfectly equipped for the cold with thick fur and thick skin. In fact originate races cold weather and as such, do not really need coats, unless they are particularly cold or the weather is particularly severe. But most dog breeds especially small and short hair will appreciate the better quality jacket can be purchased during frigid days. Make sure it is insulated, waterproof and windproof. A good idea is to buy a warm sweater along with a lightweight waterproof and windproof shell - that way you have more control over your comfort as you can add or remove layers, depending on the weather. It is very important to ensure that they are a good fit - too loose and they feel drafts, very tight and they cut off the circulation.
- Consider dog boots a good pair of warm boots the dog water not only protect your dogs paws from the elements, but also sidewalks the city with salt. The chemical salts used to melt ice and snow can burn a dog legs - although some dogs seem to be more affected than others. Typical reactions of the Dog in the range of sidewalk salt incessant licking paw (discourage it!) outright screaming. It is especially important to ensure that dog boots are a good fit and tighten safely. If you buy the boots off easily soon regret it as you find they have to retrace your steps every five minutes to find a boot is out. A dog is less likely to reject the boots if they are well equipped and safe. Velcro holds the rubber-soled shoes tend to last longer and hotter, while disposable rubber boots may provide a more secure fit and has a natural feel to a dog. If your dog absolutely not wear boots no matter how hard you try, you can always wax try rubbing their legs. waxes can be obtained from most pet stores and protect against snow and salt.
- Do sure his shoes are convenient! This is probably obvious, but also making sure that his own shoes suitable for walking on icy streets. Company base support is a necessity in the snow without taking into account, but more so when you are walking your dog. If you pull or bolt, the last thing we want is to fall completely in part because behind their shoes do not have adequate grip!
- Avoid metal surfaces Apart from the fact that the surfaces metal can be very cold in winter, there is another fundamental reason to prevent them. The salt falls into manhole covers and grates can corrode the old electrical cables in the streets and sidewalks and cause stray current. This has been a well subject published in New York in recent years and the problem shows no signs of abating as a public service company New York can offer no guarantee that the sidewalks are not current in winter. Dogs in New York City are regularly electrocuted in winter and in a particularly tragic a dog walker in New York was electrocuted and killed after she and her dogs went through an electrified fence. The problem is not unique to New York City - Any place where there is underground wiring and salt, wire and stray current corrosion can occur. For this reason it is best to look out for everyone avoid metal surfaces on the sidewalk during periods of ice and snow. If your dog should scream or cry suddenly without notice, move away as quickly as possible and who may be suffering a shock. Of course not always possible to see beneath the snow and ice, which means that it can always be sure that there is metal underneath. For this reason, you should seriously consider setting your dog with rubber-soled shoes that insulate them from today's.
- Do not allow your dog to go glaciers Dogs go crazy love snow deep snow accumulations. It will literally dive into them and jump around like it was the busiest in the world. While this is very nice and fun to watch, should be discouraged. Snow drifts on the sides of city streets can be formed overnight, often obscures the trash that was last night. Bags garbage can contain sharp objects or protrusions that could injure a dog. Worse, the trend may be hiding something particularly dangerous as a broken or old mirror electrical equipment with sharp edges. Save snow frolicking in the park or dog walking!
- Cut short rides in extreme weather Although most dogs are creatures resistant and tolerant of cold, never keep your dog out for too long when the weather is extreme or cold. Temperatures below zero with a wind chill factor can be as dangerous to dogs as they are for humans. Small dogs are especially prone to freezing - And remember that cold air can be harmful to a dog lungs. While your dog will probably tell you when they want to go back inside, do not be afraid to play the father in spoiler question-over and cut their steps. Remove from toilet rights and bring them back in - you can always make exercise through indoor play.
Take good care and there is no reason why you and your dog should enjoy their walks together no less in the winter months than in any other season!
