We offer you a list of practical ways you can keep your pets safe and comfortable all winter long. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Cold Weather Safety Tips<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Stay home <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 Pets are not much safer in a cold car than they are in a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ovrs.com\/blog\/hot-weather-pet-safety-quiz\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">warm one<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Hypothermia is deadly and pets are just as susceptible to it as humans.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Stay in <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 Dogs and cats should not be outside for prolonged periods in the cold. It\u2019s a myth that animals are more resistant to cold than humans; the reality is that our pets can suffer the harmful effects of cold weather just as easily as we can.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>If you must leave pets outside<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 Provide a warm, dry shelter with plenty of cozy bedding. Puppies and older dogs are more sensitive to the cold so it would be better to take them outside only to relieve themselves. Shovel out a spot if there\u2019s deep snow. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Paw protection<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 Be aware of your dog\u2019s paw pads while walking as snow and ice can damage the pads or make walking difficult. Clip the fur between toe pads to reduce the amount of snow collecting between the toes. Or spray the pads with cooking spray just before your walk in very cold weather.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take a moment to wipe your dog\u2019s paws, legs, and underbelly after you arrive home to remove any chemicals that may have accumulated, such as deicers, salt or antifreeze. Place warm water and a dry towel near the door to rinse and dry paws. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Speaking of protection<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 Short-haired dogs may benefit from wearing a sweater or dog coat while outside. Make sure to remove your pet\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ovrs.com\/blog\/dressed-choose-pet-clothes\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">clothing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> if it gets wet as that can actually make your dog colder. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Frostbite<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; if temperatures fall below zero, even minor exposure can lead to frostbite of sensitive areas such as nose, feet and ears. Frost-bitten skin has a red, gray or whitish appearance. Use a warm, moist towel to help thaw any frostbitten areas and bring your pet to your vet or pet emergency. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ovrs.com\/blog\/starting-new-year-right-winter-wellness-pet\/\"><b>Winter wellness<\/b><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 If your pet has not had his or her wellness exam yet this year, winter is a good time to make an appointment. Cold weather can exacerbate certain conditions, such as arthritis, and your pet may need to be checked out.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>A Word About Fences in Winter<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cInvisible\u201d or underground electric fencing is growing in popularity as a way to keep dogs and cats in the yard without the cost or unsightliness of a standard fence. Please keep a couple of things in mind during cold winter weather: <\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Invisible fences can malfunction and cease working in the cold months, especially when ice and deep snow covers the area where the fence is buried. This may allow your pet to get lost in the cold weather. If you let your pet outside on his or her own, be sure to check that the fence is operational.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With any type of fenced-in yard, if you allow your dog outside before bed for a potty break, be sure that your pet is warmly tucked inside before you go to bed (or fall asleep on the sofa). \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><b>Staying Active Inside or Out<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeping pets active during the winter months can be a challenge, but both pets and people need exercise everyday!<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Get outside<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 Yes, it\u2019s cold, yes there\u2019s snow on the ground, but chances are your dog doesn\u2019t mind. So bundle up your pooch and yourself and get moving. Take a walk, have a snowball fight, even throw the Frisbee a few times\u2026who knows, you may even have a little bit of fun yourself!<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Obstacle courses\/agility training<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 Indoor agility courses are a wonderful way for dogs to burn off energy while engaging their natural hunting instincts. You can even set up your own dog-friendly obstacle course in the basement or garage.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Back to school<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 Winter is a great time to sign up your dog for training or obedience classes. Classes such as these allow your dog to socialize and expend excess energy while fine-tuning his or her behavior and skills.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Feed the brain<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 Keeping our pet\u2019s brains active is important during the long winter months. Food puzzles, slow feeders, cat trees, and indoor games can provide pets with much needed mental stimulation. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ovrs.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oakland Veterinary Referral Services <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0hopes that you, your family and your pets stay warm and safe this winter.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It may be an El Nino year, but that doesn\u2019t mean it will be warm in Michigan this winter.
