I just worry about his ears getting cold because he hates hoods.

Thanks for the nice comments, everyone

Teegy, hmm, I've never noticed any problems with their ears. Mine don't like hoods much either. Our winter walks are generally 20 minutes, a little longer when it's warmer, a little shorter when it's colder. I try to set -5 F as my cut-off point. When it's that cold, walks are very brief.

If any shivering takes place, I either pick up the pace, put them in my coat for a brief warmup or end the walk. I'm sure you'll find a good balance.
