I can say we just had a blizzard and have been getting one to two storms a week. Oakley has a Hurrta coat, a snood which he sometimes uses as a neck warmer and boots used for wet snow or extremely cold weather. Despite that his paw pads started bleeding yesterday mid walk…he really can't handle the constant snow,ice,cold and ice melt..
I think you should be able to bring your pup out; just keep an eye on any signs of hard shivering or motionless (not wanting to move), lifting up of one foot at a time and staring at you. All those can be signs of cold uncomfortability. Congrats on your new pup and I do agree to use caution around dogs you aren't familiar with, but also keep in mind socialization is super important as well. Try for positive experiences with dogs at a safe distance and try to get in up close experiences with dogs whose medical history and owner reliability are there
Might be bringing home 2nd B!!

Well we first applied for Meeka, but the coordinator wasnt sure if she was the right fit, so she talked to another coordinator in her area and she had a girl that isn't posted. It's looking like we will get the one thats not posted, but Meeka is still a possibility.. They both sound great so I'm super excited!!

again, congrats, hope all goes well

After I got my 2nd B, I swore I would volunutarily ban myself from looking at the BRAT website, but wound up volunteering for BRAT instead:p I think they have some sort of Basenji hypnotic powers on that site.

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!! We got a boy from BRAT that sounds very much like Meeka – shy , scared etc.. He has recently been warming up to us and is proving to be a GREAT dog -- just takes a lot of time and patience. Hope you all get along great and again CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

Congratulations! I truly believe that two are better than one. I think Bs do much better with a companion. Can't wait to hear how things go.
