Hi there! I have a question. When it snows, would you recommend that we leave the doggy door open and let Rex have free reign, or would you recommend that we close it during the day when we aren't here?

He just loves the snow, and I get worried that he will stay outside too long, and freeze to death get really sick or get stuck in the snow (the snow here in Colorado is really, really heavy during the fall months, and sometimes Rex gets his little legs temporarily stuck in the heavy, wet snow).

I don't know what to do. I really don't like leaving him in the house all day while we are at work b/c I don't want him pooping and peeing all over the place.

Any suggestions are welcome - I'm at a loss...
