While Karma doesn't need a coat - in fact he loves the cold weather! - he does at time need boots! Last year he was out playing and playing and playing in the snow and in the evening (when he was passed out!) I could see that the undersides of his paws were bright red! Not good!! And the next morning - before I could get to the dog store - his paws were actually painful in the snow causing him to try to pick up his feet out of the cold. Needless to say I was at the store when it opened buying a pair of "Muttlucks" (LOVE the name). So be sure to protect those paws too!
