I hear ya loud and clear. It was -40 this morning, with windchill at -50, currently we are at -35, but expected low of -51 for tonight, not including the windchill. I haven't left the house for a couple of days, and don't expect to till next week. Talk about cabin fever.

Showing minus 28 here, feels like minus 38 with wind chill warnings. Not a very warm evening out there.

Think I might let my pup sleep in the basement tonight, then again she does have a insulated doghouse, with two light bulbs for heat...

Come on Sheldon, let her in the house. If all you had for heat in your house was 2 light bulbs, I think you would be a bit cold. She deserves it.....

I totally understand, but we are getting a pretty bad freezing spell, with no chance of "climatizing to it".Normally we slowly get colder, but this year it has hit hard and fast. We went from a nice -5 to -30 overnight. That's hard on the animals too. She just might not have enough body fat or winter fur on her yet. Mind you, if she's an outdoor girl, she might not like being in the house, I've seen some dogs like that. Both of my guys were indoor dogs, but they did like the snow, until they started holding up one paw at a time, and limping. Do you have a porch that is maybe not as warm as the basement? That might work out better for both of you.
