That sounds like heaven, 60 degrees. One can only imagine being warm
in the ray's of the sun again. Something to look forward to somewhere
down the road. How far down is another story

LOL! Sorry for laughing but I can just picture it and it has happened to me too. It's so stupid but it's like the first thing you think of is I hope no one saw me.LOL And then ouch that hurt! My babies have a fenced yard so I can open the door and let them out. What I can't get over is how they circle and circle finding just the right place to go poo, mean while their freezing. Today we have a wind chill of -28 and the temp is -3. It has been a brutal winter with temperatures staying so cold. I have to be out everyday like it or not as I have horses that need feeding twice a day and stalls cleaned etc. Talked to my sister yesterday (she lives in Houston) and she was going to the nursery for plants and also said "Oh my roses are blooming.) You know some things in life are just not fair. LOL

Yes, I can understand that not being fair.
You poor thing, having to stay out even longer caring for your horses.
Stay warm somehow and just pray for spring to come ASAP.

[Ellie May]

Heck no.
Ellie is carried out to do her business and carried back in.
If she takes too long, we come in without her doing it.
Apparently it was 15 below not terribly far from here last night.

Roxie will go out as fast as she can and when she's done she comes flying for the door!! After seeing someone throw a glass of water up in air on the news the other day and watching it freeze mid air, I really don't want Roxie out for too long so no walks here right now. Just hurry up and do your biz and get back in.

I have a fenced in yard so I let my guy's run outside for a bit till they want in. I shovel the back patio so that they wont be in deep snow. I also put their jackets on them when its too cold and windy.

Jeter can't tolerate the cold too long, he is 2 pounds 12 ounces and if it is windy out, he actually has been blown over trying to pee outside He hates the snow too, so he only stay's in the shoveled area. He is fast to do his business and get back in the house. He loves our fire place and will warm up in front of it I do not walk him during the winter

Yumi Yasha is a bit bigger than Jeter, she is almost 5 pounds and she will play a bit longer outside with Axl than Jeter but she still gets cold fast too. She is picky were she potties so she takes a bit longer finding the perfect spot She will go on a short walk to the end of our block every now and then but she stops at a certain spot and then you end up caring her home.

Axl, who is an 8 pounder, is a whole diffrent story. He could care less if its freezing out, he loves being outside to run and bark at every thing. He goes off all over the yard jumping in the snow drifts, its funny watching him . He even likes to eat the snow last night I had to let him out at 12:30 and he would not come back in, It took him about 20 minutes to come in the house I was so dang cold and I just had my robe and slippers on and had to go outside and trick him to come in. He also still likes his walk around the block and could possibly go for a longer walk if you want to be outside yourself. Yesterday my oldest son did not have school so he took him on a walk 3 diffrent times. He said Axel did not walk, he ran for the most part.

When I think about Jeter being blown over while peeing I just have to smile. How adorable.

Pao loves it too We just came in...it is -17 celsius...brrrrrr I am still feeling the pain from the cold on my face. The problem is Pao looooveessss to walk and he will stare at you until you bring him out every single day and I feel like a bad Mommy if I don't. Few weeks ago, when there was a snowstorm...we walked too on those days..I could barely open my eyes with the snow hitting my face and he was like Mommy hurry up..let's go let's go!

Can't help but to reply to your post...hehehe your 3 dogs are all funny

Twinkle loves nothing more than running around a muddy field chasing her ball while the rest of us stand around freezing to death.......rain however is another story, if there's the slightest moisture in the air she wont budge from the house It rained all day yesterday and Twinkle held her pee from 6.30am until 3.30pm when she finally whined at the door to be let out - she literally fell out of the door in her desperation and was weeing before we even got to the grass! As soon as she was done she shot straight back into the house. xxx xxx

60 Degrees???!!! you are soooo lucky. In upstate NY we have about 8 degrees, and by Friday they say it will get about 0. My guys don't want to go for walks now, even with the coats on but they can run in my backyard, and I can watch them from the back door. Forget Spring I'm looking for Summer to come!!!!!

I think Jeter finds it a bit embarrassing Poor thing, he likes to think he is a big bad macho man not a wimpy little thing! It's happened to him quite a few times now, it's his second winter and my kids thinks its so funny ( they are all boy's by the way) so they all want to be on potty watch when it's windy out so they can get a good laugh

[chachi]

Chachi will go out to go potty real quick when its cold then hes right back in. Jewels wont even go out. I dont walk them when its real cold
