I have an 8 month old Great Pyrenees and I was wondering, how cold is TOO cold to have him outside for a long length of time? I have a fenced in back yard and he stays outside most of the day, unless I feel like it's too cold or the weather is bad. He always comes in at night. Sometimes I don't really know for sure if it would be too cold for him to handle so I end up bringing him inside and putting him in his kennel (which is plenty big enough) but I then feel bad if he has to stay in his kennel for more than a few hours. How do I know if it's too cold? I give him plenty of attention so he's never "neglected" and he gets plenty of exercise, but when I go to work I need to know he'll be comfortable. (link)

If your dog wants to come in, let him in. If he is shivering, let him in. And if he gets wet, LET HIM in! Pyreness are very furry, and can stand cold. I would (so he is warm) make a wooden bow thing with 3 walls. On one side, leave out a wall and face it away from the wind so he has shelter! That will also help!
