We had the most perfect snow!
No roads were closed, the temps barely got below freezing, there wasn't a hint of wind. I could get behind winter if snow days were always like this.
We had a great time in the woods with the dogs, and I really enjoy watching the interplay between the pups. They are slowly, but surely becoming a "pack", not just a bunch of dogs that live together.
While Albie isn't exactly lovey dovey with the Bigs, he participates in outdoor hunts with them and they have a routine, where he checks underneath the roots, while they scout out the upper level.
He is pretty proud of being one of the big dogs and works hard to keep up.
Actually, he is pretty much on the sidelines, and they don't even acknowledge his help. I don't think he notices, he feels like he is in on all of the action. Twinkle, on the other hand, knows she isn't invited and watches from a few feet away when something important needs to be dug up or chased.
Albie never misses a move, and keeps a close eye on what is happening, in case he is called upon.
He may be delusional, but he is happy.
Over time, we have come a long way with the relationships. And now, on the other end of the learning curve that time created, Twinkle is becoming a Senior dog, and losing her vision. Out in our woods, we have to keep an eye on her so she doesn't wander off and can't find us.
Not that we would ever consider leaving her behind! These walks in the woods are her happiest times.
She isn't the only one who loves them!
Me too.
The snow is beautiful, isn’t it!! Surprised your littles like the snow.
