Double coated big fluffy dogs boil in hot house of cold furless human mom. Big fluffy dogs beg to be let out into nice cool garage for bedtime. Furless mom can't believe even with double coats and foam mats and fleece beds they are warm enough in insulated garage when temps are getting into single digits outside.
Furless hubs gets tired of listening to mom cry about perfectly fine fluffs and goes out to buy a
safe radiant heater to take the edge off the cold.
Furless mom cheers and claps with happiness until she goes out to turn off Christmas lights and is practically blinded by the glow of the heater. Fluffs are sound asleep until mom says, "Awww, it's so bright in here. I wonder if they mind the light never going out for the night?"
Furless hubs put 'Christmas lights timer' on his shopping list.
But seriously, do dogs care if it's light or not. I know I need darkness for a good night's sleep and even then I have the pillow over my eyes.
