Dang Cold

Okay - what is Dang cold. I could have swore in colourful words but I will be good -  boy is it cold. Dogs are picking up their feet to tell you their pads are cold so in they go. Charlie found a new playmate today - our Willow. He's played with her before but today it was on your back legs full out fun play. He is really having a blast.

Here is the gallery. The title is January Monday but it is really January Sunday. LOL Funny how all days merge.

We have different stages of comfort ability for new dogs. They come - they observe. They start playing - they bark if barking is what they do. They stop barking as you say no bark and they get it. What a rewarding transformation and it always happens. Nothing better than seeing dogs having fun. It just makes me smile and smile. 

Dogs have had an amazing day despite the cold. Roast beef added to their food tonight - yum!  

Life is good despite the cold. But hey spring you can visit, if you like - minus the rain.

I have a coat for Rusty but he hides when he sees it even though it is not uncomfortable on him so if my walks are short he goes naked. Which he is fine with but it makes me feel colder. He loves the outdoors.
