Fiona loves winter...I do not.


Fiona can sit out in the -15 below wind chills until her paws glaze over. It does not faze her in the slightest. I on the other hand cannot even stand near the sliding glass door (indoors mind you) to knock for her to return inside without cursing the chill. I hate denying her some outdoor time, and certainly I am aware of the dangers of dogs in the cold. (stop your hate mail now) But good gravy, how do I learn to embrace winter the way my silly setter has? I'm more like Dugan our 8 year old Irish setter. His creedo is "go out only when necessary, return inside immediately and burrow under warm blanket."
