As an Australian Shepherd they're referred to as Aussies or AWESY in this case, in case you didn't know.
-5*F and she spends an hour picking up sticks like its nothing.

Shit my pitbull hates the cold she pees and poops and runs back inside lifting either her front or rear leg within 3 min.
Yup our other dog is a corgi mix of some kind he spends 30 seconds out there. lol
Snowblow and shovel a trail around the yard because the dog is short, goes into the deep snow to pee anyway. SMH.
3 min might be long I always go outside with her since I worry about her getting her ass whooped or eaten by a yote.
I call it the racetrack cause he will go outside, do his business, then sprint around the yard on the track a few times, then run inside cause its cold.

Your dog is squatter? Or he raise his leg ?
Both. He usually squats unless he feels the need to piss into a bush, on a tree, or a fire hydrant, then he lifts.
Dunno if its because I have no trees in my yard?
Mine rings a bell on the back door when he wants to go outside, this morning he rang it, I opened the door he ran out then ran right the fuck back in.
Had to put on a jacket and shit and go out there with him to go.

Our little guy Bear has been having some trouble walking the last week or so, at first I thought it was just old dog/hips and lots of hard surface floors around the house but then he started having trouble on the rugs and on walks on concrete, like his knees weren't folding his feet out at the right time.
My wife took him to the vet yesterday and they took some blood and urine samples so we'll see.
Vet is afraid that what we thought may have been bladder cancer a few years ago(never took samples just treated and symptoms went away, we continued to treat to keep in remission) may have spread to his nervous system.
Normally cold weather really saps him, he's only 12# so not a lot of mass...this morning wife took him out to for a quick potty and the little fucker decided to go on their 4 block long warm weather morning walk, no leash, no coat(4*) nothing, just we're goin on a walk mom so follow me. She said he only got tipsy once when she had to stop him and turn him around or he would have kept going. Goofball dog.
Forgot about this thread lol.
Our dog is starting to have some health issues. About 2 weeks ago she started getting puss in her eyes, left one more so than the right. Took her in last Friday and the left eye has an ulcer, right eye just minor infection. Got her on pain meds, antibiotic and eye drops. Supposed to go back next Friday for a checkup. She barely opens her left eye now and even when she does I think she is blind in that eye.
On top of that she started walking with a slight limp about a month ago. I thought she possibly slipped on ice or did something minor going up/down the stairs. Well it’s getting worse, so I’ll let the vet know next Friday. Really hoping it’s not her hip or acl (whatever they call it for dogs). If it is and pending the outcome of her eyes. We might have a decision to make. She is going on 9 yrs old and I thought she was only 7 lol. Everyone I know that had a pit that had the acl surgery, after rehabilitation they blew out the other one. My Dad actually just had it happen to the tune of about $7k.
If she was 4 or 5, I’d probably put her thru the surgery if needed. But approaching 9, and possibly being blind in 1 eye as well. We might have to put her down. I’ll see what the vet thinks next week.

I took these yesterday. It’s Maia, who is our special needs cat. Was basically on death’s door this time last year:
