These paws were made for walking\u00e2\u20ac\u201dto a point. <\/span><\/b>Watch out for sidewalk salt.<\/span>\u00c2\u00a0Pets\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 paws are extremely sensitive, so prolonged exposure to sidewalk salt can be problematic. If you walk your dog regularly in areas where sidewalk salt is used during inclement weather, wipe the underside of paws with warm water and a clean towel when you go inside. Doing so also eliminates risk of ingestion if your pup licks its paws often. Keep an eye on your pet\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s toe pads for severe dryness, cracking, or bleeding.<\/o:p><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Remember, if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re uncomfortable with the outside air temperature, chances are your pet is too.<\/o:p><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Why don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t we bundle up, Buttercup. <\/span><\/b>When pets do go outside during the winter, those with thinner fur coats may need extra warmth. Your local pet store should have an assortment of extra layers for your dog\u00e2\u20ac\u201deven winter boots for pups who need extra paw protection from the cold and ice. Only add layers if your pet can truly benefit. If you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re unsure, consult your veterinarian.<\/o:p><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

All work<\/span>\u00c2\u00a0sleep and no play makes Jack a dull boy. <\/strong>Keep your pets active throughout the winter.\u00c2\u00a0During inclement weather, when you can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t make it outside with your pup, set aside some extra time during the day to make sure they get some exercise\u00e2\u20ac\u201deven 15 minutes of playtime helps. Paying attention to your pup keeps them engaged and happy, and ensures no bad behavior caused by boredom.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
