Bud was shocked by his first sight of snow, he ran back into the house and later, took a big dump on the living room carpet – no way he was going outside.

A half hour later, we all went out, and he was a different dog. He was transformed, tearing up and down, circling the sheep, jumping on Red and Fate.

He seemed to just love it, in the way I’ve seen Labs love it. After about 15 minutes, I saw him start to shiver, and I put him right back in the house. When he came out again later, I saw him run into the barn to stay warm and out of the wind.

We have a sweater for him next time, and I think we’ll use it. But he loved his first look at snow, he can sure run when he gets excited. Gus didn’t mint he cold But is more sensitive to it.

We will take that very much into account.
