It's important to keep your pets safe and warm during the winter season as the frigid temperatures can drop suddenly and cause them harm. To ensure their safety, here are some tips to follow:

• Trips outside should remain short during the winter months. While dogs need outdoor exercise, lengthy walks can prove harmful especially when wind chill is a factor.

• Wipe off your dog’s foot pads and stomach fur with a damp towel after returning from the outdoors. It is important to clean between the pads, as salt and snow can end up in this area. Source: MSPCA
