Too Cold Today it is so cold Gracie is not wanting to go outside and go potty. It has been -27 with windchill most of the day. Unfortunately she went poo out in the garage earlier. The garage is attached and the door was open. My daughter had to clean it up.:( But I can't blame her I would not want to either. We usually do not have this cold of weather. |
BRRRRR... I feel for you and for Gracie. That is cold! Hope it warms up soon! |
Oh my gosh...that IS cold. We had 70 degree weather today.:D |

See This is why I have Sadie going in my basement on pee pads. My hubby thought I was crazy not to train her out side, but it's winter and she was 10 weeks when we got her! So the basement is good for now, she will go out side like her big brother Chewy when she gets older and it gets warmer!!! |
I trained mine to go on the piddle pad at first. She is a winter baby too so I understand what your saying. Now I can't get her to use the pads, she insists on going outside, even when it's freezing out there and the wind blows her over every time she squats to do her business :) |
when it's freezing i'm scared his little wee wee will freeze. lol.. if he refuses to go outside i slap on a belly band. lol.. |
When we first got her in Sept. I tried to train her to go to a pad and she refused so we just took her out. She actually liked the solid floor better than the pad. Then we started mopping with spic n span and it seem to confuse her and she went outside more. |
I know how you feel. It is cold here too. Jasmine won't go potty outside ever! She just stands there. So we have to clean up after her all the time. It can be frusterating!BRRRR! |
i think we should just get them a condo in miami. lol.:) |
I can't even imagine those temps. Never gets less than -1 C here.:) Just some useless information ... CoCo and Coffee's breeders only plan for puppies born in the spring/summer, CoCo was born at the end of August - our spring, and Coffee was born in December - middle of summer. They only have litters between August and March - neat hey? I wishing warm weather for you guys, but that means our winter will be on it's way:( Sheilagh |
I hate the cold, and I feel so bad for Rocky because he has to potty in it. It's days like these that I wish I trained him on the peepads. I think he kinda likes the cold though, he takes his sweet time when he's outside where most dogs hurry up, do their business then run back in! |
Oh, poor doggies that have to go out in such cold! I can't even imagine~it was over 80 here today and yesterday was 84 (I don't think that's normal even for us!). I don't blame the poor dog for going in the garage. I don't think I'd even let my dog out in such cold weather and I'd expect him to go in the garage! Do they really get used to that weather? Brrrr....I'm getting cold just thinking about it, LOL. I'm sure you appreciate the Spring! |
I can relate to that frigid cold weather. The last few days have been horrid here with below 0 temps and as low as -50 wind chills. Last night it got down to -20 something with 50 below wind chill. My dogs won't use pee pads either. How I wish they would! |
We've been below zero for a couple weeks, not -20, but consistently -5 to -10. They seem to know when it's that cold even before they go outside. Jack just starts peeing on the peepads (if we're lucky) more, and Eddie holds it until I put on his coat and booties. Good luck. |
Only my Pommie, Snowboy, will use the piddle pads and he's the one equipped to handle the cold with his thick coat.:confused: The three Yorkies all think they have to go outside and then can't get in fast enough, sometimes forgetting what they went out there for.:confused: All the snow this year has been a trial. Joanne :aimeeyork :aimeeyork :aimeeyork :dog: |
Miss Lola is so funny....she will take off running towards the door after her sister Chloe, the Golden Retriever,she will take one step outside, and turn right back around and come back in! We use the pee pads in the winter ;) |
lacey to wants to go out to do her thing, but usually only pees outside and poops in the kitchen and then tells on herself. lol she is pretty good when its not quite this cold out, unless its raining lol. she will go on pee pee pads but uses them only once if there is something on it she will go next to it lol. |
WOW that is really cold it never really gets COLD COLD out here....poor Gracie. More snuggle time for you guys! :D |
Mine need a little extra encouragement and a good treat, but they will go outside. If there is snow all over the porch, Loki considers 3 out of of 4 feet outside to be "outside" and will just pee on the snow, otherwise he goes over to the mulch next to the porch. Even this morning Sammy was running around outside, sniffing everything... At least they didn't run away when I put their sweatshirts on them. They have been snuggled up in the house though. Usually they follow us from room to room but they just stay snuggled under their blankets! |
Tired of the cold weather too! Was -48 with the wind chill this weekend, Bea won't even try to go outside in that kind of weather. Glad I trained her on the pee pads. Can't wait for spring so we can go outside and play. |
When I took Zoey out this morning it was 11 degrees here....she looked up at me and dug her heels in. I know she was wishing some hateful stuff on me for dragging her out of her down comforter and into the cold. She did go in a record time and looked at me like...oh I did it. She is not a puller but she sure hauled ass this morning and tried to get back inside. |
it is very cold out today i dont even want to go out but i need to go do my taxes so i have to go out there in this crazy windy cold day brrrr...i need to be in a warm place lol..thank god martini was trained in the house |
Yup... I'll chime in with complaints about the cold. We have had temps at 50 below with the windchill for 42 days straight now. Even we hardy Northerners are getting sick of it :mad: As for my girls, they don't even realize that its cold outside. They are pampered pee-pee pad princesses:rolleyes: |
Sending you some Florida sunshine ASAP:daisy: |
oh my.....well i guess i am glad Smokey is not too picky where he goes(lol).....bad for me........he was marking everywhere so he wears bellybands 24/7....but he poops where he wants...thank goodness that aint hard to clean up....most of the time it is on the rug under my dining room table on the backside....so most people wouldnt see it....i just look every morning when i get up and then again at 1 in the afternoon and around supper time.....he goes outside some when it is warm....but he never has been really on a schedule so always ut ohs.....lol......but at least he aint (and i aint) freezing our hinnys off out side right now.....lol........:animal36 :animal-pa _________________________ www.dogster.com/683315 |
I am listening to you guys who have all this warm weather! You guys are so lucky! Breanna:p Sasha:aimeeyork and Jasmine:aimeeyork |
OK I think Sammy is crazy. She pees as soon as she goes outside. Then she bounces around the yard (I know she needs to burn some energy, but it's cold!!) She even plows through the snow banks! After 5 minutes she decides her feet are too cold and she stands there lifting one paw until we come rescue her. She would be FINE if she would just pee and come back in!!! She is good for 5 minutes before she starts to get cold. What on earth is wrong with her? I think it's just a fun game! |
