-- Your thoughts on bringing a dog inside please... (http://forums.ukcdogs.com/showthread.php?threadid=392669)

I HAVE TWO HOUNDS. ONE LIVES OUTSIDE THE OTHER INSIDE. WHEN IT GETS REALLY COLD FOR MISSISSIPPI THE WIFE WILL THROW A SHO NUFF FIT IF I DON'T BRING MANDY IN THE HOUSE. IT MAKES HER FEEL BETTER AND KEEPS THE PEACE AROUND HERE(LOL). EVERY THING YOU EVER HEARD THAT WILL RUIN A DOG GOES ON HERE. WE TREE OUR FAIR SHARE OF COON AND OUR DOGS ARE HEALTHY. SO I WOULD SAY IF IT MAKES YOU FEEL BETTER BRING THEM INSIDE.

Mine is an inside dog

My puppies are 11 days old. It has been in the teens every nite since they were born. They are outside with their mom and that is where they are staying. And they are doing just fine.

A friend a few miles from here has a litter of 9 Kansas Thunder pups that are 7 weeks old. They are kenneled outside, have been since birth, will remain outside and they too are doing just fine.


To each his own.........

I live in SE WI. It gets COLD! All 5 of my dogs are inside dogs. They love to go out even in the very cold temps. If they want out I let them out. When they want in they come in. I have indoor/outdoor runs in the garage that is heated. If they want in there they go, otherwise they tap on the door to the house if they want in. Haven't had any problems taking them hunting. They get so excited they don't notice the cold.

.

It is so funny how I point out that the question is NOT "do you think your dogs will be ok out in the cold" but rather something totally different and people still answer the wrong question!!!

well to the folks that want to disregard, sometimes, you repeat yourselves over and over. buckshot, i read, the same thing. over and over. you are over your limit on dogs in the city, and you have found a way to get around it. nice. actually nice job. you have a big basement that is obviously heated and you bring them in. good for you.
now, the smart aleck ,intellectualist i am glad you graduated from eighth grade. you asked a question. if do not want the response. dont ask. simple to comprehend if you are an intellectuallist.
this is what i know about dogs, alot, when it comes to akc. dont try me. obedience and all.
i know alot about deer hunting and hunting in particular, including raising brittany's for bird hunting and shorthairs.
i do not know about coonhunting but way similar in my book.
training is training. irregardless if it is night or day.
so, if i am drunk, read this, i WILL NOT, send my dogs out with another to get trained. if they need it i will be there. then, i dont have to rely on another to tell me what my dog might sound like, act like or otherwise.
but, back to your thread, it might hurt or it might not , to bring them in at night. up to you.
intellectualist. figure it out. to each their own.

While we're all off topic, when dogs get inside, do they have run of the whole house including the bedroom? And if so, how many wonder why their relationships only last for one night? When I wake up because a dog or cat hair is drying out on my face I don't even wait for daylight, I'm Gone.

this is what you originally posted, nice spelling, again,




"I told a fellow hunter that I was going to bring my dog in during these single digit temps and he said the most silliest thing I think I have ever heard. He said if I was not careful that I would KILL the dog. Who else thinks this is rediculous? Not only has it been cold but the wind has been howling too"

thank god i brought mine in. that is all i have to say, it has been under zero at night with the wind chill.

and, a dog can be killed by bringing it in and out, depends, it can get pneumonia.

ask your veterinarian. if you have one.

Okay I`ll answer the question you asked with my opinion. Which everyone has. Will bringing a dog in during a cold snap kill the dog? Of course not. Will bringing a dog into a warm house after it`s conditioned to the cold cause other problems? Maybe. I`ve seen retrievers blow their coats after someone thought bringing a dog into a 70 degree house was a good idea. That didn`t do the dog any good when it went back outside. What is your average winter temperature Buckshot? Do dogs die in the winter? Yes the cold is harder on sick and old dogs. Old dogs do tend to die in the cold and they die in the heat. Just so you don`t think I`m against having dogs in the house, all mine start in the house, and all go outside when their around 6 months old.

intellectualist,
you are going to have a brain cramp if you don't slow down. everyone gets what you are saying, you are just getting advice from the whole of united states. geez. do what you think is best, there is a possibility of pneumonia, if , you keep the dog in awhile and then throw them out. THAT is the issue you ensued. it is true.
but, do what is best for you and yours.

intellectualist, I got to thinking. Over near my folks house, their building a new high school. Weather here has dropped down to teens and low 20's at night.

Come day light, you see those guys on the contruction site hammering away all day after spending a warm night in a warm bed in a warm house.

If we humans can do it, you know dogs can do it.
