[Must-See] SOS signs for small dogs who are sensitive to the cold! 3 cold weather protection measures you can take right now

With winter now in full swing, we humans are starting to feel the cold more and more often. In fact, many dogs , especially small breeds, are more susceptible to the cold than we are.

"Shivering" or "Sleeping curled up more than usual" - these could be signs from your dog that it's cold. For small dogs that live close to the ground and have difficulty maintaining body heat, taking measures to protect them from the cold in winter is very important for their health.

Here are three ways to keep your beloved dog warm and comfortable during the winter.

1. Check for cold spots in your room

Something that is surprisingly often overlooked is the environment inside the room. In particular, wooden floors can get freezing cold in the winter. Dogs spend much more time closer to the floor than humans, so the cold from their feet directly affects their bodies.

【countermeasure】

• Place a warm rug or blanket in areas where your dog spends time.
• Avoid placing your bed near a window or door and move it to a place where it is not exposed to drafts.
• Provide a fluffy dome-shaped bed or a bed made of warm material.

This alone will make your dog feel much more secure when you leave him alone in the winter .

2. Stay cool and stylish with functional wear for your walks

Not taking your dog for a walk just because it's cold can lead to lack of exercise and stress. For winter walks, we recommend dressing your dog in warm, easy-to-move-in clothing.

[Points to consider when choosing clothing]

• The inside is made of fleece or boa material.
• The outer layer is made of a windproof material such as nylon.
• A design that fits the body and does not restrict movement.

"But winter clothes are so fluffy and unfashionable..." Have you ever thought that? Petopop's warm and stylish items will make your pet's wishes come true. They will keep your small dog warm while enhancing its cuteness.

3. Often overlooked! Winter "dry skin care"

When you use a heater to combat the cold in winter, the air in your room dries out all at once, which is a major enemy to your dog's skin and paws, and can lead to dry, flaky skin and cracked skin.

【countermeasure】

• Use a humidifier to maintain the appropriate humidity level in your room (50-60% is recommended).
• After a walk, gently massage your dog's paws with a moisturizing cream.

Protect your dog not only from the cold but also from dryness.
