Winter

December 21.  The first day of winter - and the longest NIGHT of the year.  Time for extra rounds of "find the bunny."

Now as we all know, some of us canines are better suited to cold temperatures during these winter months.  Dogs with longer coats don't seem to mind the cold  - but dogs like Italian Greyhounds and Dobermans may not exactly like the chilly temperatures.  They could definitely benefit from wearing a coat.  We have coats that we wear - more for rain than snow - although we do have the dreaded snowsuits to keep off the snowballs when the temperatures are right around freezing.  Actually, I don't mind mine - it's made of Gortex.  But Frodo is not so fond of his spandex version - although it DOES work!  If you look back at one of my old blogs - you can see our suits:

Anyway, with the start of winter - just for fun, here's a little quiz with the names of some dog breeds that are said to be well-suited for the cold.  I've scrambled their names...

1.  taika
2.  kalsana talemaum
3.  nerbsee tounmain god
4.  whoc whoc
5.  tearg neyrpese
6.  seenkdoh
7.  zavsuk
8.  fewnandlound
9.  tains nearbdr
10. beatnit  retreir

There are certainly lots of others - that's just a sampling.  How did you do?  Not sure?  The answers are below..

Well I had better get working on my letter.  Time is running out.  What's the deadline?   I'm assuming Santa will still have all my requests  available.  I'd hate to wake up Christmas morning and have an "Out of Stock" message left in my stocking....

Have a good one!
