You read that right! I took my dogs out this morning to use the bathroom, and ended up having to rescue the oldest one because her feet froze and she couldn't walk on them. The biggest one, a black lab named Jake, came in limping on his hind leg and refused to put it down once he got inside.
They weren't outside any longer than it took them to squat and pee, but it's so cold here. -13º with a windchill of -35º.
I feel so bad for them. I know they need to go out, but they won't. And I don't blame them! Can you imagine having to use the bathroom outside? Barefoot?

That actually happened to my sister's dog. She was in the backyard and her feet got cold and she was walking funny. So she stopped walking and rolled over and lifted her feet up. My sister ended up having to carry her back in the house.
