[Petopop Style] Even small dogs who are sensitive to the cold can learn to love winter! 3 easy and stylish tips for keeping them warm

Have you ever felt a chill in your heart when you saw your beloved dog shivering violently on a winter morning? Small dogs, with their small bodies and close proximity to the ground, are more susceptible to the cold than we might think. Winters in Japan, in particular, can be a harsh environment for dogs, with cold floors and dry air from air conditioners.

"But I'm worried about leaving the heater on all day..." "I don't know what kind of clothes to choose..." For pet owners like you, Petopop has carefully selected three easy ways to keep your small dog warm in the cold that anyone can do. Have a warm and happy winter with your beloved dog!

Tip 1: Wearing innerwear indoors is the new normal! Protect yourself from the "invisible cold"

You might think, "It's okay because it's indoors," but in fact, because warm air rises and cold air falls, the temperature near the floor where small dogs spend their time is much lower than adults feel. In particular, when a dog is left alone without its owner, it can get colder than you might imagine if the heating is turned off.

Solution: Wear some comfortable loungewear

That's why we recommend light, easy-to-move-in loungewear. Even a single layer of thin material can act as an insulator, protecting your dog's body from the cold coming from the floor and drafts. It also helps prevent dryness by eliminating the need to turn up the heating too high. Warm, easy-to-move-in loungewear is perfect for times like these.

Tip 2: Create your own "warm hideaway"

Dogs have a tendency to recognize small, slightly dark places as their "territory" and feel safe there. Take advantage of this habit and prepare a special winter "hideout" for your dog. This is a very effective way to protect your dog from the cold .

Solution: Create a snow hut space with a bed and blanket

Add a fluffy blanket to your regular bed. The key is to use a dome-shaped bed, or even create a snow hut-like space by loosely covering it with a blanket like a roof. Your body heat will heat the space, and you can maintain natural warmth without using electricity, creating a safe and secure power spot.

Tip 3: Be careful of heat shock and dryness when walking your dog

Just like humans, dogs' bodies go through heat shock when they suddenly go from a warm indoors to the cold outdoors. Also, the cold, dry asphalt in winter can strip moisture from their paws, causing them to crack. Choosing the right outerwear is crucial for keeping small dogs warm when walking.

Solution: Cover your body well and use moisturizing products

When choosing clothes for walks, make sure to choose something that covers your dog's belly and back well and is made of a material that keeps out the cold wind. Down jackets or fleece are recommended. And when you come back from your walk, make it a habit to gently wipe your dog's wet paws and apply a moisturizing cream for their paws. This simple step will protect their delicate paws from drying out.

Summary: With a little ingenuity, winter can be more fun

There's nothing special about keeping small dogs warm in the cold.
