Black Dog Sunday

We are still waiting for our first real snow of the year. As I thought about the recent warmth and dry weather, I realized that we had a really big storm on this date a couple of years ago. Our Black Dog was starting to slow down but he and I went out to play in the snow. The snow drifts were as tall as him!


He was almost completely blind at that point but he romped through the snow joyfully.


I'm so glad that we went out to play in that storm. Going out to play is never a mistake! 

Happy Black Dog Sunday!

  1. "Going out to play is never a mistake". We agree!
    There is a sprinkling of snow here in Aberdeen this morning, but not what you would call "real snow".

  10. Play is the spice of life:) My pups would love even a fraction of that snowfall. We love seeing R finding joy in the snow.

  11. Play is good for the soul! Like you I'm quite concerned we are absent the presence of white stuff but continue to be hopeful.
