It was unusually chilly this morning in Thousand Oaks when we went out for a walk. Odie knows that it’s time for the morning walk when I grab a poop bag from the kitchen instead of a coffee refill.
We headed outside and immediately returned for the warmth of the house. We were both shivering and I required a heavy jacket and Odie a pet sweater to keep him warm.
After that, the thirty degree weather had no effect on us and we continued our brisk walk. Sometimes short-haired dachshunds have advantages since they get to wear a nice looking sweater once in a while.
The patches of ice reminded to keep careful and not to start jogging to get our blood flowing. But at least we warm with a extra layer of clothing.
The girls didn’t need a sweater this morning due to the fact that they have a lot of fur and we only dress them up when they go to the snow.
I’m glad it’s warming up here. Kody’s pretty good at going on walks down to 40 degrees, but below that he’s fine going out, but doesn’t want to stay out. I don’t go on walks then, but I worry that he’ll get too bored. But it’s not that often here.
