Hahaha, Becky you could bring 100 dump trucks and it wouldn't put a dent in it! I complain about the snow but...I guess it's not so bad. I go out with my coon light after work, strap on the snowshoes, and look for tracks just like I did when I was a kid just getting home from school. It's fun looking for tracks, mostly deer but some coyote, fox, porcupine, moose, fisher, rabbit, squirrel....and when it warms up a bit..coon. I like to head out on the snowshoes everyday, keeps me in shape and keeps the lungs filled with fresh air, fends off the flu. I cant wait for this snow to pack down...been waiting to take my good friends Heather and Bob coon hunting, also my nephew. the dogs have a hard time getting through the deep snow. They have heart and sure will try, but it's aweful tough on them.
To answer your question, dogs can get frost bit but as long as you take good care of them they'll be fine. It's been zero degrees at night here and the dogs are fine...the key is good warm houses, plenty of fresh lofty straw, high protein feed, and warm water to drink several times a day.
At least when the cold temps hit...and the snow is to deep, us New Englanders get to partake in our favorite past time...boiling and eating chowda, lobstas and steamas LOL
