We had our first little snowstorm the other day. For Olivia it was the first time she has seen more than a couple inches of snow. The skies opened and dumped about eight inches of the white stuff which is a nice amount for some backyard fun!
Olivia did not shy away from the new snow at all. She was having a real blast chasing leaves that were blowing over the top of the snow. Yes, it’s true, Mom didn’t do a lot of raking, but our yard will survive.
Bailie also loves a good little snowstorm! She was cruising around the yard to do her sniffing.
Olivia always tries to be Bailie’s friend, so she stopped racing for a few minutes to do some sniffing with her big sister. We all know, rabbits have been known to live under our pine trees sometimes.
Having no fear of going in deep to catch a scent was an easy task for Olivia. She doesn’t mind sticking her head right down into the snow. The cold air makes odor sink, unlike heat, which causes it to rise and spread.
I came out to join in the fun too after a while. Being short, eight inches is up to my belly! It’s not a problem for me as I can still run like the wind.
Olivia and I also did some sniffing together, but we have a hard time slowing down. Both of us love to race, but it is more work for me with my short legs. We had Mom measure us this week and I’m still fourteen inches at the withers, Olivia is seventeen, and Bails is twenty. We hope Olivia stays at that height, but who knows.
Look out! Incoming wild puppy dog! My sister is nuts, and she has no problem tackling me at full speed sometimes! We often hear that we look like twins, and in a way we do. How does Mom know who is who? I am really jet black, and my ears are too. Olivia has more sable in her face and ears, and if you see her left side, she is white with black freckles. Her right side looks like me. Mom’s other clue when going through photos is our different collars. She always knows which ones we are each wearing.
Now for some more photos of our wild puppy romping about in the yard.
A focused happy puppy racing through the snow. Smile, a leaf is blowing around ahead!
Such a happy little girl! Mom says her legs and huge paws remind her of a Clydesdale horse, what do you think? We are afraid our little snowstorm snow will be gone after the weekend, but at least we had it for a few days of good fun!
We are joining our friends at Living Laughing and Barking in Our Backyard for their Nature Friday blog hop.
da nelly said he loves snow, because he comes from a place near siberia, so he missed the fun while watching your fab photos..
We would really miss snow if we had to move too!
You all were sure having a rip, run & romp blast in that white stuffs!
We love wintertime.
Oh what FUN! I love orange girl’s head buried in the snow! Those are some sweet memories of MN. Wish me a Happy…today I am SIX! XOXO, Sparkle
Happy 6th Birthday to you today! We hope you have a fabulous day with extra love, good food, and maybe some gifts too!
How jolly to see you guys frolicking in the snow.
Happy Nature Friday!
Toodle pip!

Maybe your rain will turn to snow so you can have some fun too!
Such joy!
We do get energized with cold and snow around here.
What fun! They al seem to be enjoying it. l’m glad you have it instead of us; “fur snow balls” are no fun to melt off!
Lots of those around here, but it is what it is. For all the fun, it is a small price to pay.
I LOVE snow and the weather peeps are saying that we might get some of it on Sunday and Monday. Paws are crossed! Great fun pictures, girls!
Hope you get some. We are getting more tonight, but then it will rain tomorrow…Booo!
Nothing like having run romping around in the snow. You are all so adorable.
Have a woof woof day and weekend. My best to your peeps. ♥
Thank you. We do have a great time in the snow.
Hooray!! Puppies and snow are the BEST! Puppies in snow we mean!! Well.. . we mean all of it! What a good sweet addition your baby sister is! Enjoy the snow!!!! your friend Lilly
Hope you guys have snow to play in too.I bet your furs also get tons of snowballs 🙂
What fun !
Loads of fun to be had in the snow.
Those are some fun snow photos, glad we didn’t get the snow.
We are always glad to get the snow. Now we have more, but it will be raining during the day, and then snowing again. The rain needs to go!
Your snow is beautiful. We saw the snow on our weather and know you’d be happy. Please keep it up there. BOL!!
We will never give it up once we have it. Snow is great!
What fun you are having, and i know there is more to come when the snow comes to stay for the rest of winter.
We are hoping for a really snowy winter.
She looks soooo happy. Madison, how are you and Ballie doing?
We are taking it super slow, but doing well. Bailie is still a bit afraid of me, but we are just taking small steps so she learns to trust me.
You girls really had a blast out there! We are so glad Olivia loves the snow, since we know how much your whole family enjoys winter. We are due to get a foot or more over the next couple of days!
How lucky for you guys! We had some sleet and rain yesterday, but more snow too. Hopefully it will stay cold now so we can keep it. Olivia is Ethos Loving The Northland, so she has to love winter.
When we look at your happy snow pictures, Winter may come our way too. So much fun😺 Pawkisses for a Happy Sunday🐾😽💞
We love winter, so we are super happy to have snow.
