Today, in the wake of a storm that swept our part of the world, we woke up to a thick blanket of snow. Roxy, who was born last spring, was ecstatic and spent all the time we were out shovelling nosing around, listening for mice under the snow, and generally getting the feel of this new experience.
She didn't much like the feel of the packed snow between her toes, but it was more than made up for by the joy of barrelling chest first into four-foot drifts and galloping in huge circles around her shovelling humans.
The shovelling part took us the better of two hours; that was just fine by Roxy, who found much to amuse herself.
Sweet puppy. Now...does she do the dishwasher thingy? Check out Rob's site for the "dog in the dishwasher" pic.

We've only had a little flurry here, and although I don't relish the fact we will eventually get lots of the stuff, I can't wait for the babe to get his first taste of falling in a snow drift.

Taxi wants you to know that he thinks Roxy is a "hot dog". He is giggling behind his paw at that stupid reference.
I want you to know that I want to SMUSH her. In only the nicest, kindest, gentlest of ways, of course.
Awww!!!
