First snow of the season- many pics!

[goob]

Sorry for the poor quality, I need a decent pic editing program

First, the little dogs...

Annie looking a bit perturbed at the reminder of the seasons


Casey looking like a wooly mammoth


Rotating for the dry ground for "facilities"


Joey looking less than impressed with the snow


Casey and Joey looking on as Annie plays


Headed on back


Hot dog zoomies


More zoomies (ya think she was excited?)


Finally, Case got the hint (Joey wasn't moving anymore than he had to, he's a warm weather critter)


Next was Haley...

"Uhhhh... where's the grass? You know, that green stuff... that I pee on... graaaasssss..."


"Bwahahaha.... I am the great white hunter in my great white home!"




It was a flyaway ear day, as you can see


She kept eating the snow, then sneezing from it getting up her nose


I believe this may have been brain freeze here, she stopped eating snow and just stood for about 15 seconds before moving on


Snow zoomies


To the water


Wondering if something was going to jump up and eat her


Finally she worked up the nerve to check it out


Before running away


And finally Goo

First on the agenda was a good shake, keeping the couch from darting out of the house can be a heavy task, and she needed to loosen up


Checking out the yard


And of course, the candid Goo snow zoomies




They all have to look at the water, it's like a ritual in winter... check water to see if it's "stiff" or normal


Our trip was cut short when a friend came to visit and Goo dragged me up the yard to greet them


That's all for now, we're supposed to get a bigger snow this weekend though

Great photos! Nala would love a nice snow, but the weather is not obliging. Apparently we got 9 inches over Thanksgiving when we were gone, but nothing but ice since then. Ice is not as fun.

Talk about zoomies, though. I brought the dogs to the oh-so-muddy dog park yesterday afternoon and they spent 90 minutes with the zoomies. They came home totally caked in mud (and so was I). After baths and laundry, they flopped over and were still the rest of the night.

One of these days I will bring the video camera to the park to record the zoomies.

"Zoomies" is where they dash around crazily, like ZOOM!

[honeybears]

hehe, luv it, zoomies, Wylie was doing snow zoomies on Sun. she was sooo fast, I cant believe how much a short hair dog loves the snow. She has to go off the packed trail and into the the 3 ft drifts and just bounces thru them

Nala likes to cram her head in snow banks. We haven't had a good snow since we got Bonnie so I don't know what her opinion of it will be. She gets colder than Nala and typically seeks out warm places whereas Nala likes the cold, but so far Bonnie doesn't seem that bothered by freezing cold and ice.

Great pictures Goob! I just love watching dogs play in the snow.

Hey Goob--Your Annie looks like my Zoey!! See:

[goob]

Thanks everybody

Coppersmom, they do look a lot alike. How old is your girl? Annie just turned 7 this month, so I joke that she's prematurely gray

[coppersmom]

Zoey turned 9 in September. I say she's prematurely grey too! Then I started saying she has highlights! She'd much rather be an only child...so it's probably stress!
