Playful Dogs in the Snow

a framed photo of a black dog tracking in the snowDog play is one of the most fun things in the world to watch. And when the weather is cold and snowy my two dogs seem to enjoy their outing even more. It all starts with an invitation. You see, dogs have a language all their own. When a rump goes up with tail wagging and then the dog bows it means "let's play!"

Rob is only too happy to oblige and leaps toward Dulcie.

  12. It's so wonderful when dogs have a life of quality because of their very loving owners, who are really their parents. :)
