New found respect

For you fellas that live up north . I live in La and we got some arctic air, its suppose to not even barely get out the 30 's tomorrow and it even aint that cold compare to yall up north. i have 3 dogs but they stay inside. i have a big ol field behind my house i just went outside with em and i tell you what, i dunno how yall do it with 5 and ten dogs at a time outsdie

 

I was thinking along the same lines. Cold air makes you hesitate going outside. They have cold to deal with we have the heat and humidity.

 

true , but at least at night it aint THAT bad for us during the summer. i was looking at the temps for up north, like minus 20 . its 35 here and it is cold as hell

 

I will have to admit they must be some dilligent owners to make it in those extremes. It must be even harder for our friends in Canada. I have noticed this cold air shortens my walks.

 

yea man i tell ya what ... u really gotta prepare when its that cold out. gloves double socks the hole shin dig or you aint lastin. then up north they got that win chill that is a killer

 

-17 here yesterday w the wind chill....BURR!!!

 

Is Al Gore out in this weather talking about globle warming??????/

 

-22F, no wind, just piles of snow.

 

Yeah it gets cold, but when you've lived up north your whole life, your body gets used to it. Hell, it was 22 degrees the other day and i walked for about and hour and half. The dogs get used to it as well, as long as they're in good health.

 

Yep, we have 8 degree wind chill factors going on here in North La.
Checked on my mutts twice last night and they are good. I wrapped thier dog houses in Linoleum remnants that I picked up yesterday and gave them all doors on the front of the dog houses and made sure they were not facing the wind. Fresh added hay. They looked at me like, WTF?:eek:

 

ive lived in montana my whole life, so it doesnt bother me at all, not a thought when its -30. just like when you guys go out in 110 degrees!!! I would fucking melt!

 

-40 to -50 yesterdays wind chill. luckily im down to two housedogs

its been about 15-20 here with windchill of-10 dogs are weel fed an fresh water all day an they are doing great thank god

 

i live in northern illinois on the border with wisconsin it gets pretty bad but u got to toughin up for the dogs they depend on u do u cant cur out on them

 

I live in Az so it rarely gets below 35f in its coldest day, my dogs are yard dogs , all dogs get aclimated to any weather.

 

I totally agree shit here in TN its been in the teens and single digits for a week and a half the coldest winter we have had in a while atleast the dogs can handle the cold better than me lol

Yea, its down to about 74 here
