DOG GONE IT! IT’S SNOWING!
(A dog’s perspective on the first snowfall of the season.)
Yawn.
Is it snowing?
I think it’s snowing.
Yes, I’m sure I’m quite right. It’s snowing.
Mom! It’s snowing!
I’d better go out into the snow.
***
Is this snow?
Yes, I believe it is snow.
I’m going to push it around with my nose.
It’s SNOWING!
Wheeeee!
Uh oh.
Mom! It’s snowing.
I’d better come in from the snow.
***
Yawn.
Hey! I think it’s still snowing.
Mom! I’d better go back out in the snow.
***
I’m going to push it around with my nose some more.
Wheeee!
Wheeee!
Oops.
Gotta pee.
Wheeee!
Better pee some more.
Oh, and a little over here.
And here.
Wheeee!
Uh oh.
Mom!
It’s snowing.
My feet are cold.
I’d better come in from the snow.
***
Hey! Is it still snowing?
It IS still snowing!
Mom! I have to go back out into the snow!
That’s my squeaky toy covered in snow!
Wheeeee!
Hey. It’s still snowing.
Mom! I better come in from the snow now.
***
Whew.
That was fun!
Hey. It’s still snowing.
Mom!
***
Wheeee!
Uh oh.
It’s still snowing.
Mom!
Mom?
Mom?
***
Yawn.
I love snow.
