I can say we just had a blizzard and have been getting one to two storms a week. Oakley has a Hurrta coat, a snood which he sometimes uses as a neck warmer and boots used for wet snow or extremely cold weather. Despite that his paw pads started bleeding yesterday mid walk…he really can't handle the constant snow,ice,cold and ice melt..
I think you should be able to bring your pup out; just keep an eye on any signs of hard shivering or motionless (not wanting to move), lifting up of one foot at a time and staring at you. All those can be signs of cold uncomfortability. Congrats on your new pup and I do agree to use caution around dogs you aren't familiar with, but also keep in mind socialization is super important as well. Try for positive experiences with dogs at a safe distance and try to get in up close experiences with dogs whose medical history and owner reliability are there
Ziggy gets a B sister!

Congratulations! Having more than one basenji in the house means double trouble but at the same time is well worth it.

Congratulations to you & Ziggy!
I recently went the same route and added a boy (Brando - also a retired show dog) as playmate to Ruby. If it goes anything like it has gone at my house, you are in for a blast and so is Ziggy.
