Let's get the job done before it gets too deep, afterall, a few inches of snow, and I will be out of luck. I see this man every day as I drive to and from lunch, and you can tell it is his baby. In the Summer you see him out working in the yard and his little pooch is right there with him.
Looks familiar... we are just now (2-and-a-half years) letting Maggie go out in the snow off the leash so we can stay on the porch while she ventures out into the yard... so far so good. She does love bounding through the snow on her little short legs, though, so hopefully she will not decide to bound too far off! :) And speaking of porches... I love the porch in your photo!
