A recipe for cold feet
We have had SUPER cold weather lately, but today it is supposed to warm up. And rain. Which means the driveway will again become a luge run. Always great fun.
The FG LOVES the snow and LOVES to be outdoors. I'm not sure WHAT he is looking for under the snow. He buries his head. And then he stands and stares at the snow. Like he is watching or listening for something. It's rather weird. Although he loves the snow- for a few days he was limping because of cold feet. I was also limping a bit - and Frodo, well he goes CRAZY if he gets snow stuck to his feet. He TRULY dislikes that. He basically lies down and starts licking. He becomes completely limp. You can't move him. So he's not limping - he's totally paralyzed. One of my readers asked about paw protection at this time of the year- and I have a recipe from a local dog guru that may be helpful. That or boots.

I haven't tried the recipe yet. It could be a bit of a circus putting it on our pads....Can you imagine?! Get out the video camera...
It's Wednesday. Hump day. Have a great one!
