0* here right now.

Primary roads now have two-track secondary still covered with packed squeaky powder. Traction is decent even with tires just a hair shy of the tread wear bars.

Dog's aren't liking it......I won't take them out until it's 15*, not sure if they'd get frost bitten toes in 30-40 minutes at 0* so I'm not chancing it with the Dane as his feet tend to pack ice between the toes unlike the web-footed lab.

We bought Stella booties yesterday… wish I had a video going when we first put them on her… OMG was that a funny walk. Didn't take long and she was chasing the ball at full blast.

I wish you did too! That had to be hilarious!

How much resistance did she put up to having them put on?

Rev won't even let you trim his nails, he has a real issue when it comes to his feet. Amy and I can't come close to holding him down enough to get a safe trim on him. Our vet said she's convinced that dogs with very sensitive feet have higher sensory capabilities vs. the old trust issue adage.

I'd get my mutts boots if they resided in the SV winter climate......one more day here and they should be good.

It's -32 degrees celcius here right now, feels like minus -42 with windchill. We already have over 1 foot of snow, and we are only at 750 feet above sea level on the prairies (wide open no shelter)

Going to be a great winter!

There is a Reason I live in Florida - the Only Warm Spot in the Country the last couple of Days, Mid 80's!

Of course it sucks in the Summer.
