Well, I live in MN and it's been COLD this winter. Lots of days in the negs and lots of icy wind this year. Those of you that live in these climates, do you still walk your Newf? I have a Mini Aussie now and prior to the winter we were walking 4-5 miles a day, well I have not walked her much of the winter because I was afraid it was too cold for her, and well, I don't enjoy it much either.
I know our Newfies love the cold and handle it just fine, I'm just wondering if most of you on here are winter warriors and still go out no matter the weather (so long as it is not dangerious)? Today it is about 16F and pretty windy, so I'm not out, but would most of you be out there with your Newf? I'll feel better knowing if I should be out there once he gets home in a couple weeks, or not.
On a side note, at what age do you really start walking them, and how far?
