| Rosie is a trooper! She puts on her sweatshirt, I carry her down the deck stairs and put her under the deck where there is no snow. Quick pee, quick poop and we are back in the house! |

| I think by now everyone knows Babybear is paralyzed still he goes to work with me. I have a pair of longjohns on him a heavy sweat shirt. Then I wrap him in three blankets and put him inside my coat. I have about a ten foot walk to my truck which has been running for 15 minutes and from my front door to the truck he is shivering up a storm oh and almost forgot also teeth chattering.lol I also put baby socks on his feet. he is still cold. Any more suggestions. Hubby will keep him home with him for the rest of the week.
