Today, I found my dogs freezing outside. My neighbor was supposed to watch them while I was away, and on my way home I called to let her know she should let them have a quick walk. She thought I'd be home soon enough that she wouldn't have to let them back in. It was minus 10°C out. FML

Today, my dog got out and ran off at 8 p.m., so I had 11 friends and family looking in the freezing cold night for it until 11:30 p.m. Turns out, the dog was locked in the garage the whole time. FML

Today, I got home only to discover my dog was missing. After spending ages roaming the freezing streets calling his name, I returned to find him stuck behind the couch with my chewed-up new shoes in his muzzle. FML

Today, I went jogging. It was cold but I dressed lightly because I overheat when I exercise. Unfortunately, I locked myself out. My wife returned four hours later to find me spooning our dog in the doghouse to keep from freezing to death. FML

Today, I went to check if my neighbours were home to return their dog, having looked after her for a few days. I looked in the window and the place was empty. They'd moved house and stuck us with their dog. FML

Today, while housesitting my neighbor's dogs the phone rang. I answered it and a voice said, "Stop checking your Facebook and take care of my dogs. They look like they need to go out." FML

Today, I woke up on the coldest morning of the year to discover that the gas fireplace has run out of propane, and there is no water because the pipes are frozen. While trying to locate the frozen pipe, I forgot to let the dog out, and she peed on the carpet. FML

Heavy load

Today, I thought it would be nice to take my obese dog for a walk, since she hasn't had one in a long time. She was doing great, until we were about a mile from our house. She plopped down on the ground and wouldn't move. Nobody was home so I had to carry her all the way back to our house. FML

Today, I let my dogs out, and then realized they didn't have their electric fence collars on. I ran inside to get the collars, then dashed out to put them on my dogs. I ran through the electric fence. The collars were on. FML

Today, I took mine and my sister's dog for a walk in the park near my house. The dog managed to find a large piece of rotting, frozen meat buried in the snow and tried to eat it. I had to pry it from his mouth and can't get the smell out of my gloves and coat. FML

Today, it's -20°C outside. Half way through my thirty minutes walk to work, my boss pulled up beside me in her car, said "You look cold. I'll see you at work." And then drove away. FML

You should try and make your dogs poop on her lawn everyday. My neighbour was a horrible neighbour n I made my huge dog poop on her lawn everyday till she left. It took less than a year

What kind of dogs are they, OP? If they have a fair bit of fur on them it shouldn't be too bad. My neighbours' (long/medium haired) dogs typically most or all of their time outside, and it's not unusual for it to hit -20* here in winter.

-20*C that is. Just to clarify. :)

what breed of dogs are they op? My dogs are part pomeranian and part chihuahua and only weigh about 10 pounds,but they live outside and are fine. If the dogs were shorthaired or very small it would be a bigger problem than if they were little dogs.

Why are so many people acting like it's not a big deal? Even though dogs have fur they get cold. I have a poodle mix with plenty of fur and she shakes like a leaf when it's below 50F... Sorry bout your dogs OP!

-10c is nothing but a crisp, cool day. Also depending on your dogs they were probably fine, unless they were hairless.Try coming up to Canada when it gets to -30c, then you can complain.
