“COLD HEARTED”
This winter make sure you keep an eye on your furry friend and don’t leave them unattended for too long in the cold weather! Many dogs freeze to death every winter due to neglect from their owners.
The idea that animals can “handle it” is an excuse for abuse. If you notice a dog being left outside in the cold, contact the police or animal control and tell them the dog has no access to water or shelter (if applicable) and needs to be taken indoors as required by law. That simple action could save a dogs life!
Naturally the cold affects different breeds of dogs differently. However, any dog is vulnerable to catching hypothermia or frostbite in weather below 20 degrees F.
So stay warm with our furry companions and keep a protective eye open for other animals!
