She just came in and jumped on me with muddy, cold paws. I am covered with paw prints! It's GREAT!

4. They like it briefly.
My guys like to stay inside during winter weather. The novelty wears off for them when they start getting cold & wet.

8. My dogs live in Tennessee- we don't do snow too well here.
They treat it like rain here, they don't like being wet.

7. How cute
My dog, who's a veteran to snowfall, still hates it. Come to think of it, he hates all weather...

11. It was our puppy's first snow this morning, too
The "old dog" LOVES snow, and it was a hit with both our puppy and Haruka's mom's GSD puppy.

12. My mother and grandmother grew up in Joplin.
Never been there myself, but I've heard it's a nice area.

15. snow here in Northern Atlanta Area
no accumulation here but the flakes were pretty...heck ARE pretty...still coming down...dog is too old to try to catch them any more. i remember taking her for hikes up in the mountains of NC and she would jump in the stream to fetch various items we'd toss in and then later in the hike she would have icicles hanging off of her...

16. I was born in Joplin and grew up about halfway between Joplin and Seneca.
I haven't been back there in years. I probably wouldn't even recognize the place.
