Pure Paws' Dr. Stephanie Liff Shares Expert Advice on Winter Pet Care in W42ST

NEW YORK - Feb. 13, 2026 - PRLog -- Dr. Stephanie Liff, veterinarian and medical director of Pure Paws Veterinary Care in New York City, shares expert tips on keeping pets safe and comfortable during the winter months. In a recent feature with W42ST, Dr. Liff shared essential tips for indoor and outdoor pet care during the colder season, helping pets enjoy winter while staying healthy.

As temperatures drop, Dr. Liff emphasizes the importance of layering, not just for humans, but for pets as well. "Your pet may have a fur coat, but just like you layer up in the cold, they might need some extra warmth too. Dogs with thin coats particularly need assistance staying warm outdoors, and even some cats enjoy wearing sweaters indoors when the temperature drops in your apartment," said Dr. Liff.

Dr. Liff also provided practical advice on winter wear for pets. For outdoor adventures, she recommends using pet-friendly paw protection to shield dogs' paws from salt, snow, and grit. These elements can irritate their paws, leading to discomfort and infection. She also suggests cleaning paws regularly after walks to remove harmful residue.

Dr. Liff's commitment to pet wellness extends beyond typical veterinary care. She is also preparing to launch an Instagram account dedicated to pet streetwear, where she will share insights on pet fashion and the latest winter pet fashion trends.
