Cold-weather pet care
Living the Country Life Radio Program
There's nothing cuter than a dog in a sweater, but for some breeds, dressing for the weather is more a matter of safety than fashion. When the snow falls and the temperatures drop, it's important to pay extra attention to your pets. Outdoor dogs and cats should have a warm place to get in out of the cold, and even indoor pets need extra protection for short trips outside. Listen to the Living the radio program to learn about products designed to keep your pets safe.
