Weird Idea

It will be even colder weather in Sweden. North of us, it is colder than here, of course. There was a radio show today where they spoke about the cold weather. They talked to a dog ower who had a weird idea. She said she planned to learn her dog to go on a litter box indoors on the really cold days, instead of taking him out. This is weird. How can you deny your dog to go outside to do what he or she has to do? It is close to mistreating the dog. You can take shorter walks or have the dog in your yard for shorter times, the dog would not want to stay out for long either, but to completely deny your dog to go out should not be allowed.
