Dear Vicki My dog’s thick fur is normally enough to keep him warm, but it’s been so cold recently I’m worried he might not be warm enough on his walks. Does he need to wear a dog coat? Dogs with fine or thin fur (e.g. greyhounds and whippets) and dogs that are very young, underweigh­t, old or unwell should wear a dog coat when it’s cold. They should also only be taken outside for short periods during cold weather. A healthy dog with thick fur should be fine without a coat for short periods, but no pet should ever be left outside without access to shelter and warmth. If you notice your dog is shivering, bring him into the warmth straight away, as this is a sign that he’s cold. Being cold can also lead to hypothermi­a, a serious and potentiall­y fatal condition. I have a three-year-old male rabbit and I’m getting him neutered as I want to introduce a companion for him. What’s the best way to do this safely? Rabbits should always live with a companion as they can get lonely, so it’s good you want to find him a suitable companion. A neutered male with a neutered female is normally best, but remember to leave it three weeks after the surgery before introducin­g them, to avoid accidental baby rabbits! Introduce them in a large run with a mesh divide to begin with so they can gradually get used to each other’s presence and smell. When the rabbits are relaxed in each other’s company with the mesh divider still in place, you can consider short supervised sessions, returning the divider if they begin to fight. It may take several weeks for them to bond and be able to live with each other permanentl­y.
