Sure enough, as I predicted, we were greeted with snow early Saturday morning.
Ryan and I woke up early, hoping to spend some time in the fresh white powder before it was reduced to muddy slush. We were excited about the season’s first snow but, as you can see, someone else in our household was even more so.
When it first snowed last year, Iggy wasn’t thrilled with the idea. In fact, we could barely make it around the block before ice crystals would cling to his legs and salt would burn his precious paws.
I didn’t want to be that girl who put shoes on her dog, but Iggy’s shoes—little rubber boots called Pawz, almost like rubber balloons—have changed our (winter) life. (Humans get snow boots; why not dogs?)
Our once sulky snow pup had the vigor of a sled dog as he darted around our deserted street on Saturday morning, throwing up fresh powder in his wake. Passersby laughed as he spun and scooted and slipped and slided, coming up with a snow-covered face after every nose dive.
The once ethereal snow cover has already become slush, but I won’t forget this winter’s first snow—a perfect morning with my two- and four-legged loves.

Those pictures of your dog in the snow just warm my heart! Our dogs love the snow, but we have had a mild winter so far and no snow yet for us!

These are the cutest photos ever- I love him!
Iggy looks like he has the biggest personality! I love that in a dog. My previous neighbor’s dog had so much spunk and charm, I swear he was like a human in a dog’s body.
It looks like you guys really enjoyed the snow. I didn’t get a chance to go out last Saturday, but it definitely looks like I should have made time to. Looks so pretty! And I’m so enjoying all the lovely photos on your blog.
Oh my gosh! I love your blog and I love this post! Your dog is sososo cute and your photos are incredible. Love the way your blog is set-up, header, font etc. Incredible. X

Thank you! We’re flattered. 🙂
I laughed so hard at these pictures. Thanks for sharing. They made my night.
Glad to hear it. He’s such a clown! 🙂
My co-worker and I are wondering what type of dog Iggy is?! He’s so adorable! (He almost kind of looks like a Border Terrier….?)
He’s a Brussels Griffon. 🙂
Your dog is adorable!!! I can’t get over his little red ‘snow shoes.’
Thank you!
Love you Iggy … and the streets look great, we are covered in snow right now near London
That was our one and only snow so far this winter. Iggy’s hoping for at least one more so he can break out the orange booties again!
Love this I have a yorkie mix who loves the snow!
