Keep Your Dogs Inside

Does your dog spend a lot of time engaged in outdoor activities? Did you know that puppies do not tolerate the cold as well as adult dogs, and may be difficult to housebreak during the winter? If your puppy appears to be sensitive to the weather, you may opt to paper-train him inside. If your dog is sensitive to the cold due to age, illness or breed type, take him outdoors only to relieve himself.

Furthermore, be sure to thoroughly clean up any spills from your vehicle, and consider using products that contain propylene glycol rather than ethylene glycol. Like coolant, antifreeze is a lethal poison for dogs and cats.
