With temperatures expected to reach single digits over the next several days, the Weston Fire Department gave some pointers on how to keep pets safe during the cold weather. An animal’s tolerance to cold weather can vary based on its breed, age, fitness level and health. Arthritis in pets can often be exacerbated by cold weather. And pets with kidney disease, diabetes and heart disease may be more susceptible to extreme temperatures. Short-haired pets cannot withstand cold conditions for very long without some kind of sweater or coat. But, of course, each pet is different. Pet owners are encouraged to closely monitor their pet’s behavior in the cold weather.
