Snow does not faze her. She likes snow. The 12F to 19F (-11C to -7) temperature is WARM to her. She has layers of fur. She likes the cold. If we let her she will sit out, in snow storms, for hours! But, we don’t — not because of her, but because it bothers us.
She also likes her walks — actually her hikes. We live in the sticks, on a dirt road with dirt roads all around us. Don’t get much traffic even when it is not snowing. A day like today, we saw 2 vehicles in 2 hours! So she gets to roam around. She knows the roads. She comes when I call.
I did 11,000 steps (4-miles) in two hours. She, of course, did more. Probably 5 or 6 miles. When we got home she sat at the door. No desire to rush in!
