Snow big deal

Winter is here… and with it, the possibility of snow.  I’m not a snow lover – especially after last year’s Snowmaggedon – but even I have to admit that animals in snow are pretty darn cute.

  1. Your punny pet names for the week:  Husky Springfield.
  2. The name of this Tumblr says it all: Pets Looking Out the Window at Snow.
  3. Cute Contest, championship round: cats and dogs in snow.
  4. Speaking of cute, this collection of photos is called “40 Photos of Dogs Freaking Out In Snow.”  Could it get any better?
  5. Looking for a way to enjoy the winter with your pooch? If you’re really ambitious, you could create a snow dog like this one.  Or maybe your dog wants to go sledding?

Bella’s never been sledding, but she does like running around in the snow.  The snow was too deep to run in during last year’s Snowmaggedon, but Bella’s not one to give up that easily.  Although she’s not technically a snow dog (like our pals at FiveSibes or the Thundering Herd), she does like to engage in what I think of as snow swimming:



 
Want to see more pups frolicking in the snow?  Happy to oblige.

The one thing I do enjoy about snow is taking photos of Bella playing in it.  It’s my first winter with my new toy, so we’ll see how they turn out.  In the meantime, if you want to see some cool snow photos (easy pun intended), go check out Romping and Rolling in the Rockies.  (Seriously, KB posts some amazing stuff.)

Does your pup like the snow?  Tell me all about it in the comments!  (And remember, winter’s not always easy on puppy paws – make sure you check out these tips for winterizing your wagging friend.)
