If there's one of fact of life it's the following: dogs LOVE snow. As a dog walker, I have mixed feelings: while I love seeing how happy the dogs are mucking around at our local dog parks, I pretty much fear for my life every step we take towards the dog park :) The dogs are bursting with excitement and even our best leash walkers can't help but try to pull the whole pack (and dog walker) to the park by yesterday.
Who am I kidding though?! I love every aspect of dog walking in the snow ... even the inevitable pulling ... and refusal to leave the dog park ... and locating Kong balls in mounds of snow. Seeing how happy the dogs are makes up for all of it :) Whether it's Princess' inevitable drop and roll at Bickford Park or Winston's hilarious resource guarding of snow at Trinity Bellwoods, it just makes me happy !!! That being said, dog walking in jean shorts at the lake isn't too bad either so summer, if you hear me, don't be afraid to come a bit early this year.
