What is the coldest temperature a dog can adapt to? Owners must pay attention!

November has arrived before you know it, and the weather is getting colder and colder. All pet owners must pay attention to keeping their babies warm. For those of you who don’t know your dog’s cold tolerance, this article should help you determine whether your dog is cold or not.

For medium and large dogs, their tolerance threshold for cold weather is around 7℃. If the temperature in winter can be above 7℃, then most dogs can adapt. When the temperature drops below 7℃, the dog will start to feel uncomfortable. Symptoms include trembling, anxiety, and slow movement.

For small dogs, the temperature of 7℃ is not something they can tolerate, because large dogs can tolerate cold better than small dogs. The larger the dog, the better their ability to retain heat. Because body fat has the effect of insulating from cold, and the fat storage and muscle layer in large dogs are thicker than that of small dogs, so they are more cold-resistant.

There are also some special dogs, such as huskies, Samoyeds, Alaskans and other dogs, which are more adaptable to the cold and can function normally in sub-zero environments.

Therefore, poop scrapers should not let their dogs out to play in winter. Frostbite and colds will not be good for dogs~
