not sleep under a blanket I have a fleece blanket on his side of the bed
for him to cuddle in. I just ordered a Nap Sac from Cindy and hopes that
will give him added warmth.
As far as the house, during the day in winter I keep the thermastat at
60 and turn it up when I get home to 70. I can't stand to be cold either.
I hope this helps you some. I tried boots in the snow but I spent more
time backtracking looking for one or two I just gave up. They don't stay
on. When his feet get cold I just carry him home.
Here I am in the south with moderate temps and a much warmer house than I prefer at night and my husband worries about Bailey getting cold? He's already started covering his crate plus he added an extra pillow for him to sleep on! I asked him just the other night what was he going to do when it really gets cold and maybe have a power outage. He'd never make it where some of you guys live and right now the temp outside is 54 and our furnace is set at 73! We play games with the thermostat year round. Drives me nuts!
