Snow Bunny?

We had our first snow here in Maine. We adopted Ashley in July and it occurred to me......she was from FLORIDA! This might explain why she would NOT step outside the door into that stuff falling from the sky! Abigail and Taz were raised "bi-coastal" and fully enjoyed bounding off the deck and doing the "nose plow" and snow dance! Ashley looked at them and ME like we were all nuts (which we are, but that's beside the point!). It took me untill 10 pm last night to "coax" this Florida Weather Wimp out the door! LOL!! I'm sure she would have bounded outside if it were a hurricane and pouring rain is NOT a problem...but this white stuff??! Ab and Taz kept running up to her and nudging her to chase them. She finally caught on that this stuff could be FUN! I'm sure my neighbors are wondering WHY I was out running around the backyard at 10 last night...! Ashley is now a Snow Bunny! I hope she reaches a "happy medium" because it took me until midnight to get her to come back inside! LOL! She rolled, she plowed, she sniffed and snorted the snow and went FULL THROTTLE all over the yard! We don't call her "freight train" for nothin' !
Happy Snow Days!

That's a great story. Did she discover the pleasures of eating the snow too?
Thanks for sharing!
I'm not sure if she was eating it or just covering her face in it!! I wish I'd had the camcorder! When I first opened the door to let her out she did the "stop on a dime" as we know only KW Trucks and sheepdogs can do! LOL! The look on her face was priceless! I just kept thinking 'chicken little' and the sky is falling! She's out running amuck with the other two again right now and I'm going to join them!
Fun times in Sheepdogdom!
Cathy :D
Nab brings in chunks of snow to eat! At least for now she's eating them and not burying them in the couch like her bones :D I'm glad Ashley discovered the joy of snow.

Nab wears her doggles for car rides and loves them! Her eyes don't dry out while they're on.
Great story! I wish we got more snow than we do (zero... :cry: ) Because we have to drive for 3 hours to get some, probably we'll take Lennon and Sofa in January to have fun and see how Sofa reacts to that stuff.
Hi Nabs mom, I laughed out loud about Nab not hiding snow chunks in the couch!!!!! That is very funny.
Bunker and Nabs. How can you tell that they are related? Bunker does that in my bed and since Sunday with all of the snow arrived, she's been bringing in huge snow balls. SHe also has taken a liking to cleaning the little balls of snow of her feet on the bed. When I yell at her, she cocks her head as if to say"But Mommy, its presents". It is -25 here today and the brat stayed outside for 20 minutes this morning. :roll: I had to bribe her to come in with a cookie. She is a freak sometimes.
