Dogs in Snow!!!

LOL Clodagh it depends - Flick and Hoover are not hugely impressed, Amy and Millie (especially Millie!) think it is BRILLIANT :D :D :D

I had to take them for a lead walk today as our usual routes are snowed up, it was... interesting... :D

Lacey is BEAUTIFUL! Compared to her Mrs Spaniel is a scruffy mongrel

We also have a Lacey with very similar colouring on our flyball team, she has a bit more white in her though.
 
Aww, this thread has really cheered me up and alleviated the cabin fever a bit. There are some really classy canines on here.

Here are my two this morning:

Little Westie knickers loves the snow, but can only stay out so long before she is defeated by ice boots forming on her (despite my best efforts with vaseline)
 
I have loved everyone’s photos. Sadly we couldn’t join in as we have had no snow!

So in Essex we have snow and you are Scotland and you don't? Are you in the bottom corner? I went to Portpatrick on holiday once, it was a lovely place and had palm trees I seem to remember.
 
Clodagh, yes, opposite side to Portpatrick, lovely harbour town isn’t it. I have palm trees in my garden. Our winters are usually mild, there is a botanic garden here. Our summers don’t get as hot as the south but that means flies don’t bother the horses especially by the coast.
I came from Hertfordshire 5 years ago and miss the cold crisp winters and the odd snow in.
 
No pictures sadly but the lab was launching herself in and out of massive snow drifts, attacking snowballs and generally being a clown and loving it. The JRT took the stance that the white stuff was hiding little critters that needed to be sniffed out and eaten, so in his own little way he was loving it too!
 
Thank you xx She's AKA "L'il Miz Crayzee Blue Eyes" ... & they get her away with murder! I must add ... when she gets excited they glow red! Seriously!!
 
Thanks again - i do get plenty of practise, they are quite the little posers. Your boy is very cute - i love the close up nose photo :-) xx
 
Is this Joe? He looks terrifying! Great photos, did all your animals cope OK? Are you lambing yet?

It is Joe. He always manages to pull faces that make him look 90% wolf! Not lambing until the 14th April although we have had one or two early ones. Thankfully most of the livestock seem to have coped really well. We were worried because rather than the amount of actual snow it was the blowing and drifting and there were some drifts 40ft deep but having had a rough count so far all seems ok. There are some drifts we won't be able to check until a real thaw but fingers crossed it is not looking like a disaster.
