I don't think theres much hunting to be had in a blizzard , it stands to reason in some parts of the country they might not be ideal and better coated dogs stand above, but not every county in the country is as harsh as others so to generalise is a touch unfair , down south you can count the minus temps on 2 hands in the winter along with the snow days ,that don't mean to say we don't get out in the colder days
