I have not seen snow on the ground for years and try to keep it that way.I hate the cold.Every bone in my body hurts when i get cold. Thats the reason I don't go with Bruce in the winter time. Take the time today to be thankful for what God has provided.Trust that he will supply your every need.Don't forget all that He has done for you.God bless you Brutus,Sissy and Claudia

They sell it at Petco and Petsmart in the winter. It doesn't melt the snow as well as the regular stuff but it works well for traction and doesn't burn their feet!

I tried to get Chico to wear the shoes and boots I bought him, but he wants no part of them. So, I take him out in the snow (after I shovel a path) to potty and he's fine. But, I always go out with him and wait for him and of course put a coat on him and sometimes a hooded scarf too when it's really cold and keep him out of the snow melt that we scatter around to keep from falling.

I was thinking more of her being used to Florida weather and this being her first real winter. And we have some nasty winter weather not only being near Buffalo, but also on the lake. :/ I don't want her feet freezing. :( For indoors I can put little socks on her feet, but what about outdoors when I have to take her out to go potty? But I also see why some would say it's best not to put shoes on Chi's because their feet and legs are so tiny. :/ I'm completely confused now. > > For those of you who have winter (especially harsh winter) weather, what do you do for your Chi's feet when you take them outside?
