We had close to -40 F last week. She still insisted on being outdoors for her potty time. I think there was only one night I thought it was too cold to go out, and she took it in stride-waiting to go till morning and warmer temps. We don't spend a lot of time walking around in that kind of cold of course, but that she'll even go out there...heck she's got more nerve than I ever expected of her, and more moxie than her Fairbanks-born daddy! (my hubby-who is now of the age that cold is just cold, and no fun whatsoever)

I already sent a PM, alaskayorkie, but I loved the "Short People" video. I'm going to try to get through the entire "Jillie Collection" on your YouTube channel! She is such a delight to watch! She and Jenna seem alike in a lot of ways.
Aww, thanks again! I have to admit, I thought you were gonna have trouble in that extreme cold. I'm glad to hear you're figuring it out and Jenna didn't turn into a couch potato! Eddie would probably prefer that kind of life, but I don't let him. One walk minimum a day, cold or not!
