Since this is the newly minted small dog thread, does anyone have suggestions on winter clothes? This is my second actual winter, and I am scratching my head over how my dogs survived the last one with no "real" winter clothing to speak of. Sure, I had their sweaters from those chilly <50 days in California but that must have sucked for them at 6a.m. in subzero temps. Last winter we got down to -14 but most days were single digits or teens. I just bought some silly wool blend custom jacket for the mini dachshund who spends about three minutes outside at a time. He's 13 and poops/pees basically the instant you put him down so he gets to go back in after a little reward jog. I love him, but I'm not the one who takes him outside. I get stuck with my dog, a jerk of a rat terrier mix who has to poop directly onto bushes/trees/walls/rocks or through fences and needs some wind up to do so. I'm trying to find something for him that isn't $80 w/o shipping. He also is not afraid of snow at all and last year got stuck in snow drifts a few times due to his tiny stiletto paws, what a ditz. This is how they spend most of their day: being two old men.

That dog looks pretty uncanny! Mine sleeps like yours all the time, must be a terrier thing.  I figure him for a rat terrier, but dunno for sure since I found him on the streets. I've had him for 7 years now and he's down to 11 teeth remaining. Good boy, bad genetics. Not even remotely interested in small animals at all, either.
