What is the New Year Bringing For Your Chi??

Well, the new year rolled in with a bang, all the house was quiet and still, until someone nearby popped off some fireworks and Shorty went into his crying bit. He whined and whined and of course, he had to be soothed so he wouldn't wake up the whole house. What does the new year bring for your chi? For mine, I think that they are going to get a new outdoor pen to be able to go outside in for brief periods of time when it isn't cold. I know they will really enjoy that alot. I take them out on the porch sometimes and they really seem to love it. Chi's love the outdoors, but they surely don't like the cold weather, so if you go out on an outing, make sure they have on their coats or sweaters !
