Adopting a Dog in Winter? Read This First

So you want to adopt a dog, but it’s snowing sideways and your yard looks like the set of a disaster movie. Welcome to winter pet parenting! Here’s what I wish someone had told me before I brought home a rescue pup in January: Potty training in subzero temps is a team sport. Shovel a patch of grass, invest in paw balm or booties, and yes, your dog needs a jacket. If they’re still refusing to go outside, potty pads are your friend. Walks? Think sprints. If you wouldn’t touch the sidewalk barefoot, neither should your dog. Salt and deicers are basically kryptonite for paws—wipe them down after every outing. Cabin fever is real. Brain games, puzzle toys, and training classes are lifesavers. Bonus: they’ll tire your dog out faster than a blizzard walk. Adopting in winter is tough, but seeing your new best friend curl up after a snowy adventure? Worth every frozen finger. #DogAdoption #WinterPets #RescueDog #Pets
