Baby, it's still cold outside
Toastie's got a photo essay up about his neighbor's dog who was left out all night last night.
Durham's animal cruelty code requires that a dog must have access to water at all times. Does ice count?
Durham's animal cruelty code requires that a dog must have access to water at all times. Does ice count?
(2) Failure to provide adequate water. All animals shall have constant access to a supply of clean, fresh, potable water or a supply of clean, fresh potable water provided at suitable intervals. If access is not constant, then adequate amounts of water must be provided at least twice in a 24-hour period. If water is provided at intervals, it must remain in the animal's enclosure for at least one hour during each interval.

Since 1949, Durhamites have slept soundly, secure in the knowledge that, in our town, erection can be depended upon. Now, thanks to the power of the internets, we can spread that security all over the world.

I wonder if a lot of pet owners are not aware that heated water bowls are comparatively inexpensive? (although I still think the dogs should be inside)

just a guess, but my suspicion is that anyone who would leave an animal outside in 18 degree weather is not going to go to the trouble of buying a heated water bowl for there dog.
