Ours love to go outside but not when it is extremely cold. Teeka is 3 lbs and she gets cold easier. She doesn't have as much body fat to keep her warm. I put a sweater on her and a "parka" w/ hood when it is really cold. Yorkies can't take a lot of cold because they don't have an undercoat, so keep the walks short in extreme cold!
