[quote=Anonymous] Think about it. Wind cools you down by removing sweat from your skin. It reduces the heat index, not the actual air temperature. The air temp does not actually change! Do dogs have exposed skin? Very little. Will the wind penetrate well through all that fur? Depends on the thickness of the fur. Conclusion: The effect of cooling wind will be greatly reduced on a dog compared to a human, especially if the coat is long and dense. In my opinion, for a poodle with a normally woolly coat, cooling will be significantly reduced. Maybe the dog thinks the car ride is fun, but they don't know it's dangerous. You should know better than to subject them to potentially dangerous heat and dehydration. [/quote]
