Hahahahaha that's awesome.

When I get it in the 80s in here on a rare occasion I just put shorts on. I worked to hard for that wood heat to let it go out the window lol

My thoughts too.

My dogs are sound asleep. No one seems overheated. As long as I sit very still it's nice.

My dogs are sound asleep too... And it must not be too cold because even the 4 month old puppy is right out in the middle of the pasture on a hill instead of in the barn. He simply wouldn't think of leaving his sheep, even at his young age.
It's snowing hard and winds are high with wind chills well below zero. Such is the luxurious life of Maremma. As we approach the middle the night the coyotes and big cats will become active and the dogs will have a good excuse for exercising to keep warm the rest of the night. ;-)

Oh...and I'd feed those kiddos whatever they would eat. I've been putting out way more BOSS than normal in the litter and even mixed in with their feed. In addition to the sprouts from the sprout bag.

I can tell they are more hungry in the cold and they eat more of their feed most days even with the addition of the other seed.
