Looks like you will have to find a different toy that would interest her inside. Put some dried beans in a small plastic bottle then the lid of course. They usually like things that make noise. Get a packing box that is about 15 or inches tall, put some really super treats in the bottom and let her jump in to get them. (over and over) Maybe hide something she can smell easily, all over the house and let her find them. Get her one of those little robot dogs she can follow around.

Have you tried these ideas? They sound good. It's way too cold for us to go outside but he has a ton of energy. I like the idea about driving in the car with the window partially open. I was thinking about the robot dog the other day. Have you tried it? I wonder if it would scare him or if he would "play" with it. Hmmmmm......

I live in Souther CA, so God knows it is not even comparable to the cold that you are talking about..... but last night it was raining pretty hard and it was really cold (for US) I think it was about 34 degrees F. We tried to take the dogs out to pee and they just stood there and looked at me shaking...... They really get cold, just like us!
We put jackets on them for their walk today so they were ok..... but I can't imagine being in -18.... I wouldn't go outside so I can imagine its freezing for them!
