While it's cute and fun to see your pets' reaction to snow, there are a number of safety issues you need to be aware of when winter weather hits. In addition, dogs still need walks to burn energy and go potty.

According to PetMD.com, it depends on many factors such as breed, size, and coat style. In general, most dogs are fine until the temperature drops below 45 degrees. At that point, some cold-averse dogs may feel uncomfortable.

At 32 degrees, small dogs, dogs with thin coats, older dogs and young puppies may be in danger if they are outside too long.

If the temperatures drop below 20, dog parents should be aware of the dogs developing cold-associated health problems like hypothermia or frostbite.

Dogs breeds with thick, double-layered coats, such as golden retrievers, Labrador retrievers, Australian shepherds and Siberian huskies, have warmer and thicker coats to keep them warmers. In addition, if the dog is a darker-colored animal (black and brown), it can absorb more heat from sunlight.
