- But, extreme colds can affect them. Poodle puppies and seniors are more vulnerable in cold.
- To assist, give a warm sleeping space, use jackets, and limit outdoor time. Protect their paws with booties or wax.
- Watch for hypothermia and frostbite. Poodles can also get sunburn in winter.
- Avoid overdressing them, as they can overheat indoors. Stay alert and keep them comfy!

Factors such as age and size can also impact how Poodles tolerate cold weather.

Younger Poodles: Puppies have not yet developed their full coat, making them more susceptible to cold weather. Their small size also means they lose heat more quickly than adult Poodles.


Senior Poodles: Older dogs may have difficulty regulating their body temperature. They might struggle to stay warm and be more prone to hypothermia and frostbite.


To help Poodles stay warm and comfortable in cold weather, you can:
Provide them with a comfortable and cozy sleeping area.
Dress them in a warm jacket or sweater if they have a thin or short coat.
Limit the time they spend outside in frigid temperatures, and ensure they have frequent breaks to warm up indoors.
