Yesterday was the first day since my little pup could get out, didn't get out walking as it was so cold. He's still too small and it was freezing. Lucky for me I just spent the day playing and cuddling with him

Do your two play together. I know Luna may still be "laid-up" for her surgery. Lisi makes Kitzi play whether or not he wants to----he gives in & plays because she torments him!

Hi there, I think play dates are going to save us during the winter. We are not getting out for walks lately either, it is dark and usually cold when I get home from work. And if its raining too, no walks for us. Jodi slept too long yesterday and was up for a while at 1 am, so we really have to get some extra daily activity in otherwise he'll just sleep and then want to get up during the night.

How about a stroller ride---outside or at the mall? Just thinking here w/you!

**aksm4** · 11-25-2012, 09:36 AM

I'm in the snowbelt region of Southwestern Ontario so its cold and snowy here too. Fortunately Pipper doesn't really seem to notice or care. I'm a different story. I HATE the cold! He still goes out for 2 walks a day with my DH. When I got him a year ago, I potty trained him right from the first day to go outside so maybe that helped too.

Anna, I just have an inexpensive stroller by Pet Gear, I think. I got it for when K had surgery but now I would buy a better one if I didn't have this one. I am taking it to Vienna for Christmas again, as I can use it at the Christmas Markets, etc. & keep the dogs warm in the huge crowds! I bought a nice blanket when K had surgery & left it in Vienna for such things as this. It will be a huge help. Lisi does not like being zipped in but she will have to live w/it!
