Worth keeping them warm. You sleep outside and you won't die, but you will get arthritis. They curl into a ball and shiver and it tightens them up badly. Lots of "hip displasia" is just an insanely tight lower back from shivering in a ball. Vets won't charge you any less for an operation. Plenty of fat in their belly also helps.
My boy will ask for his coat.
