-22 here with at least a foot of snow on the ground. Pretty soon we will be driving the Ski-doo around the yard making them paths to walk on. Poor guys go out there and come back in hopping on three feet (sometimes two). Sometimes I have to make the big rescue and go out there and pick them up. They come cruising thru the doggy door and straight to the wood stove to warm up. They better not need rescuing in a couple of weeks. I have to go for knee surgery and I don't think I can pack a dog while on crutches!!!
It's been soooo cold this week…

Hope Cosmo's warm enough…

He needs boots, Mom!
-

Well, cute, but he kinda looks like a pile of laundry. He should have boots on too, but good for you to keep his head covered, you lose a lot of heat through your head!! Really though, how cold could it have been?
About 2 hours south of here was the coldest place on earth yesterday… -40. It's been colder than that around here before but Siberia was only -5C (23F) yesterday. By contrast, the warmest place on the planet yesterday was some place in Venezuala... +52C (125F). That's , actually, just as bad as far as comfortable temperatures go!

He knows it's cold. I like the skull

That pictures says it all - "I know I look like a pile of rags but I don't care - it's COLD!" Yah, the boots would have been good too.

Ok, I finally found a super comfy jacket for her for those very cold days!
It's one-piece with a small velcro in the bottom - easy to get in and easy to get out!
-
Where can one find the jacket sweaters that have the little hood on them? As in, a hood that can come up to protect the ears, and stay in place, not one that just lays over the back.
-
On super cold days, I remove the hood that comes with the suit and instead, I put a snood on her. In my experience, it stays on her head most of the time because the back of the snood is loose/open (not connected to anything) so it has room for movement like when she wiggles or shakes her head, and it stays in place
-
ok, haha, that's the word I was looking for. Thanks.

Imbg, where did you get the snow suit? I bought a toddler's snowsuit @ the local thrift store for the frail old girl I've been fostering–it's great for car rides in -35, very cozy, but a little stiff for walks. Plus, no hole for her tail!
-
It's called Casual Canine Snowsuit and I got a Large since she has a deep chest. Normally, a large is too long but it has about a 3-inch slit in the back - just perfect for her tail to slide in and stand at attention :). I waited for a sale to get it.
