The deci- sion to have an indoor dog should be made in September to November. A half and half rou- tine (nights inside and days out- side) is more difficult than a com- plete outdoor or indoor life. Without enough time to develop a good winter coat, your dog can- not cope with the stress of winter temperatures. Young puppies, older dogs, toy breeds or short-coated dogs such as a Doberman - are not suited to be outdoor pets. They should only go out when necessary, to relieve themselves or to the 'Car, when the temperature drops below -10 celsius. Salt, snow and ice can be tough on tender foot pads, so check their feet often. Housing should be given top Women priority when you have an out- door dog. The house should be dry insulated'and of the appropri- ate size. It should be large enough to allow the dog to tum around and stand. If the house is too large, it will cause the dog to lose impor- tant body heat. Use straw or cedar chips to help give your dog an extra factor of insulation, if there is no other type of insulation.
