The Pooches' Staycation in 10 Pictures

A and I were not the only ones taking full advantage of our staycation. Since a lot of people were out of town for the holidays, we had free reign of all the dog parks, tennis courts and many fenced in areas.
Ms. M is obsessed with snowballs and she would zealously wait for me
to throw these magical snowballs only to find them disappear in the snow.
She then tried to catch the magical snowballs in the air, before they disappeared.
Though most of the time, Mr. B was looking for snowier pastures outside of our fenced in areas, every sof often he would get a random spurt of energy and
 he would run full force around the park or tennis court for several minutes, like a little rabbit.
However, this would lead into a game of puma and rabbit.
Poor little rabbit...
Though A and I hate when it snows in the city, the pooches are in heaven.

Look how much fun they had!! My two could play in the snow all day too, though I'm ready to go in after 2 minutes!

It looks like they had a great time. Lola loves catching snowballs too. And then she never quite understands why the disappear.

So happy to see, that you two dogs are powder hounds too! Snow just makes everything more fun! (As long as you are not driving!)

Love those snowball games! I wish we would get enough snow this year to really do some full-fledged romping. Looks like fun.

What a great stay-cation! The most important thing is of course that the dogs had fun - which they clearly did!

Our dogs have been like puppies with the new snow we got in December! There's something about it that really gets them going.

We have no idea what is in that snow that makes them act so crazy. Love the pics of them running, the look so happy.

Kristine said...

Awesome! Now I am wishing the snow would come back. :-P

Does Miss M normally likes to play with balls? Or is it just snow balls? I don't think my mom has ever thrown a snow ball for me. Maybe I'd like that better than regular balls. Which, well, are kinda boring.

It looks like everybuddy had a good time. I especially luv Miss M's happy face in the last picture.

Snow is so much more fun when you don't have to commute! You can leisurely hang around and then take the dogs to play when you are ready. I love to see them running around off-leash. They go so crazy in the snow, they get tired faster, which is always nice. That last picture of Ms. M. is too adorable!

Oona Johnson said...

OMG, the first and last photos are my fave! They are sooooo precious.

LoveandaLeash--The 'puma' just wanted to use the 'rabbit' as furniture. Just like in our house, Mr. B always needs to run away from her.

Mayzie--Despite her unathletic demeanor, Miss M really likes playing fetch with balls, and gets even more excited when the balls suddenly disappear. Mr. B will just stand there and get pelted by snowballs.

I LOVE it when it snows, which is not often enough here on the West Coast of Canada. We're lucky if we get snow, and so far we've only had a couple of days with it before it melted again. I love it because the dogs go NUTS and its so FUN!!!

Wow they look like greyhounds out there! Ms. M is so funny in these pics. Snowballs sound fun and tasty.
