At Sit Means Sit, we are the best of all the dog training schools in Wisconsin, because we know what it takes to keep your canine friend healthy and happy. <\/span><\/p>\n

In our last blog, we went over the issues that de-icer and antifreeze can cause for your dog. In this blog, we will give you some tips for making winter outings pleasant and safe for everyone involved. <\/span><\/p>\n

  1. If your dog can work with them, boots are a great way to prevent his feet and pads from chafing and irritation. <\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Dogs with short fur or low body fat will do better with a waterproof sweater or coat. <\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Prevent your dog from eating snow – there may be hidden objects in it, and it may upset his stomach. <\/span><\/li>\n
  4. More dogs get lost during winter than any other season, so keep your dog on a leash. <\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Limit your trip\u2019s length to prevent hypothermia and frostbite.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
