Title: Any other HOT dogs out there?
Post by: Madderoos Mom on December 09, 2008, 01:01:37 PM
Finally, Bonnie has transitioned to the Big Bed.  There's just one thing.  She get WAY overheated if she's under ALL the covers.  Silly goose doesn't know when to come out of the covers either.  She'll just lie there and pant.  Sooooooo, we've devised a solution.  Maddie gets all the covers and Bonnie sleeps only under the quilt.  Perfect solution for her warmth issues AND it keeps her and the Roo apart just enough for random growlies that are happening less and less. 

Any other wieners out there that overheat?

On the flip side, Bonnie seems super sensitive to cold and quivers a lot.  I think that will go away when she fills out a bit.  I think she'd look better with about a 1/2 lb or one whole lbs added to her present 10.5.

Parker is more like a chili-dog. He's also very thin.

I call Simon "the furnace" or my work related favorite "the bullet heater"!

Lord god almighty Simon can throw off some heat!

Simon also shakes a lot if the temp is not to his liking.And yet he'll roll around in the snow,go figure.

Willy is my hot dog.  He will come out from under the covers to the head of the bed if he gets too warm.

Max-angel used to work like a thermostat.  When he got too warm, he'd pop out from under the covers.  When he'd cool off, he'd duck back in.  It would not be uncommon for Max to do a half dozen in-out cycles in a given night.   All the other puppers, once they duck under, they're done for the night.

Porky doesn't usually overheat. He likes to stay completely covered even in 80 degree weather!    :rolleyes:

Both of mine like to snuggle on down !!!!  Glad the girls are working through their "issues"  and that you have a workable solution to the sleeping arrangements !
