They do get cold. Some dogs are more tolerant, depending on age and breed. For example, a husky will do much better in the cold than a Chihuahua. Small dogs, short-haired dogs and dogs from southern climes should all have extra protection when they go outside in cold weather. There are even doggie boots available, although it`s usually best to teach them to wear the boots when they are young. Vaseline also protects the pads from sharp ice and salt.

What are you speaking approximately? What dogs? Are you speaking some stray dogs? if so, you may desire to take the dogs to the vet's, or community shelter/rescue/pound, and function the dogs checked for a microchip. you may additionally call Animal administration and function the dogs picked up. Why do you may desire to flow on line to make your mind up something so trouble-free?

What about the gecko whose feet get out in the desert and he has to alternate arm and leg combos to stop himself burning!
I imagine that a dog's leathery paw increases his tolerance of cold temperatures.

They certainly do get cold! My Danes are outside right now, lifting a paw every so often because of the cold. With their short coats, they have no protection, so they don't stay out very long when it is bitterly cold.
My niece's husky needs boots in the winter to protect her pads.

They do. The amount of cold they can tolerate depends on the breed - northern breeds can tolerate it, while breeds like whippets and greyhounds can't take more than a few minutes in extreme cold.
