Malamutes and Blanketing Outside


If you find that it’s too cold for you to be outside then it’s most likely too cold for your dog to be outside including dogs like the Malamute that are built for colder temperatures. This includes those that tend to live outdoors regularly. If the temperature drops please consider bringing your Malamute indoors for the day or night. If you can’t bring him inside then at least provide a warm shelter for him to escape from the elements. In addition, you may want to consider purchasing a blanket or coat for your Malamute to wear while outside for long periods of time. Please note that a coat does not make it OK for a dog to stay outside in below freezing temperatures. A coat; however, can help keep snow from accumulating in the fur as well as provide temporary added warmth while outdoors. Ask your pet clinic Raleigh NC for help to determine if and when a blanket is necessary for your Malamute during the winter months.
