Nice grab Paul. I'd say tolerance/fancy of the cold varies from dog to dog. My folks have two collie/spaniels, and while one of them would prefer to be running about all day/night in the snow (I was so concerned about frostbite getting their scrawny paws) to sitting around in a warm house, the other one goes outside for 10 minutes and retires to the stables/garage, unresponsive to my call. Go figure :)

He (or she) seemed quite happy. Dogs with that kind of coast arte quite comfortable int he cold. My dogs love the cold.
