What Is Considered Too Cold?

Extreme temperatures and inclement weather are dangerous for your dog.

As temperatures drop and we bundle up in our winter layers, don't forget about keeping your pets warm too. Keeping dogs warm in the winter can be challenging, especially with sudden temperature drops presenting the life-threatening risk of frostbite and hypothermia. Some may believe that certain breeds are well-equipped to handle the cold weather on their own, but all dogs are susceptible to hypothermia and frostbite. Certain factors, like spending a great deal of time outdoors, being a puppy, elderly, or diabetic, can also increase your dog’s risk of these life-threatening conditions. Frostbite and hypothermia usually require emergency treatment and hospitalization. The diagnostic procedures alone can easily cost thousands and vet bills and pet insurance are very costly. So, we’ve developed smart wearable technology to help guard against these winter pet illnesses.
