going outside?!

[bauercrazy]

i just recently moved to china and it is super cold here.
i just got bauer a couple of months ago and he hasnt gone outside once!
i was just wondering if it is bad not to let him go outside.
they dont have shoes or good coats here to buy...so that was the main reason for me not taking him outside.

My main concern would be exercise. Is he getting any around the house? If not, try dedicating 20-30 minutes a day to tossing a ball and getting him running.

I think he'd be happier with outside walks, but I don't blame you if it's that cold. Do you sew or know someone who does? Maybe you can get someone to make a simple coat for you.

Maybe you could buy a kid's sweater and alter it a little. You should be able to find something that would work in the children's clothes section. If you are like me and can't sew that is what I would try. Or maybe you could get someone to buy something and send it to you. I didn't know it would be that cold there. Good luck.

I never thought of China as being cold. Can someone here get you something, and mail it to you.
