BATTLING THE SNOW

We have about six inches of the white stuff. It's beautiful, but poor Rufus, who used to like snow, is having a very tough time.

There's a crust on top of the snow and he can walk on it for a while and then he sinks down into it. There's no place to sniff, which means nowhere to relive himself.

Then he comes back in with ice imbedded in his fur.

I've resorted to putting pads down everywhere, which he is using, I'm happy to report.

I'm thinking about getting bundled up and clearing a path for him in the yard, but that would mess up the beauty of it!!

It's just not easy to be a little dog!!
