Ole the dog is getting a snootful of the stuff. He is absolutely delighted by it, and spends half of his time running around like a complete maniac, and the other half trying to EAT ALL THE SNOW. Yes, folks, my dog thinks that ice cubes are dog treats, and thus snow must be Cookies Covering The Whole World. He does like to lie down in it, but just gets so excited it isn't long before he's just tearing around the yard at top speed again.
Our snow is pretty dry, not snowman quality wet snow, so it's not easy to make snowballs. However I did my best and found out that not only would both dogs joyously pounce on a snowball, but Sofia would snap them out of the air. Viciously! She's good at it!
Sofia has done her Happy Snow Dog Dance twice so far this year, and I'm sure she'll do it again. She loves snow and takes the time to enjoy it.
