    Depends what type of dog it is.
    Wirehaired or Short-Haired.
    Important to feed 'em up too.

    I have the dogs in anyway don't know about other people but thats my way of beating the cold "snap"

    my kennels are indoors with sleeping boxes in each ,the dogs sleep on rubber cow mats.

    i filled the sleeping boxes with straw this week ,the dogs love it as there is enough for them to get under it.

    the water still froze in there trocks this week.

    iv been mixing up two pints of ox tail soup in there food each nite .keep them full and warm .
