Louie bounding through the snow this morning, 2/9/2013
Our dog Kelvin (see right sidebar for our "Walkin' Kelvin" column) draws inspiration from a few sources, one of which is Louie. Seen in this clip bounding through the snow this morning, Louie is owned by Mindy, a friend of Head in the Clouds Amherst, who had this to say about Louie's most recent outing:
Quick update with the snow: Louie loves the snow and she is undaunted by its depth. We got about 20-24” of snow in Amherst, and taking her for her morning walk quickly evolved into a morning “hop” as her gait was a contant leaping. Think: surfer waves. Somehow she found a spot to take care of herself, but continued to leap around, stopping for a brief gulp of snow to quench her thirst. At the end, her leaps had created several paths through the yard. We’ll see how the wind fills in the paths in the next few hours. Remember in the snow: keep an eye on your pooch, and make sure if you leave your dog in a fenced-in yard that you assess how “low” the fence is now with the snow. You might reconsider relying on a fence that is now covered with snow and provides no barrier.
