Ha! Betty Jolene hops through the snow. I’ve never had a dog
that hops. I am glad LCP is enjoying the snow. She will be good
and tired.

It always freaked me out when Dakota would lie in snow with her
back legs splayed out so she could get maximum cold on all her
lady bits. Ziva will lie in snow, too, but she's very demure:
legs together and tail right up between them.

Mr. Hastings leaped in the snow especially when young. Part of
being a great runner (with some sled dog heritage) apparently is
the ability to do that, he could do 6 foot leaps through 1 foot+
of snow. Now he has bald undersides, not a good idea anymore.
Very different from my previous dog. Enjoy!

So Oldest has taken to telling people that LCP's OTT
enthusiastic greetings make them special:
"Jeepers, she must really like you. She doesn't do this for
just anyone, you know."
Reader, this is a bald-faced lie.

I've been trying to find a class that LCP and I can attend for
the dual reasons that she could use the focus work around other
dogs and also I need to get out of the goddamned house because I
have covi-cabin fever.
So I'm in a conversation with a local trainer, and we had a
conversation kind of like this:
ME: Looking for a tricks class.
HER: How about basic obedience?
ME: I want something more fun. For me, I mean. LCP thinks
everything is fun.
HER: She's a lab, right?

LCP is signed up for a tricks class beginning in April.
Pray for us.

3 Lab snow things:
1. Ziva will be running and dip her head to get a mouthful of
snow.
2. When she's out in fresh snow, she almost always has snow on
the tip of her nose.
3. If there's fresh snow in the yard, Ziva will go to the
deepest drift farthest away from where any humans have walked to
poop.

I was unable to discover the upper limit to the number of times
that LCP would do a vertical leap to catch a shovelful of thrown
snow.
I was struck last summer by how quickly she wilts in the heat.
The corollary, evidently, is that she is completely impervious
to cold at any level above absolute zero. She's like a small
brown polar bear with springs in her feet.
