Today was a beautiful day for a walk so, snowshoes in hand, out the door Ella and I went. We haven't had the most wonderful walking weather on the weekends and Ella was ready for a winter wander.
The only problem was we have had a lot of snow. I don't think this was quite what Ella had hoped for. She huffed.
Poor Ella also puffed.
In the end, she decided a wander in the woods wasn't wise. It was more like work.Of course, the return trip was much easier and Ella couldn't wait to get back so she could melt off the snow by the fire and take a nap. She couldn't understand why I was taking forever.
We did enjoy our winter wandering despite the work.
Looks like a lot of fun, we barely have a cover of snow.
ReplyDeleteOh, poor Ella! I have two Shih Tzu's that simply disappear in the deep snow and hop and hop to get out. And then they come in with snowballs all under their bellies and legs. Ella looks like she's enjoying the rest by the fire.
ReplyDeletePoor Ella:)
ReplyDeleteOh I would have loved it. I wonder if you could make her a pair of snowshoes:) Beautiful. B
Ella needs "doggie snowshoes!" The snow is beautiful, but you do have lots. Stay warm and cozy, XOXO
ReplyDeletePoor Ella! :) She does look like she's working pretty hard on that walk. But it sure is beautiful! I especially like the shot where you can see the house through the trees.
ReplyDeleteElla looks tuckered out; love that couch shot! What a sweetheart she is. Hope you will soon have weather that is more amenable to dog-walking!
ReplyDeleteRipley can completely relate to Ella....but remember I have Little Bruno to take care of as well. We wanted to take quilt photos outside today. But Bruno decided it was too cold. Ripley and I took photos close to home where Bruno could watch from the window. I don't mind the snow-- it's the cold temps that wears me down. Hoping for warmer temps tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteAH POOR SWEET BABY! She looks plum tuckered!
ReplyDeleteI can see why, she is tired. It is just so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYou have quite a bit of snow. Far more than we've had this year! It makes for beautiful shots. Poor Ella does look a bit tired in that last photo! LOL
ReplyDeleteGorgeous snow images, Bonnie! Poor Ella -- I'm glad she was able to warm up and rest after the trek in the snow with Mom. :)
ReplyDeleteIt is hard work in the deep snow. I'm keeping my old boy (dog) on road walks for now as the snow is too much for him.
ReplyDeleteAdorable Ella! and a nap on the couch afterward!
ReplyDeleteawwww I'm often torn between a walk in the snow and a nap!!
ReplyDeletehehe, the nap usually wins!! Ella is such a cutie pie and one smart dog!!
Poor Ella! Those snowy scenes are beautiful!

Looks like beautiful powder! We snow shoe'd today as a family too! Glad the weather allowed you to get out and enjoy a winter's walk :)Jenni
ReplyDeleteSnow and fur don't really mix do they - they sort of fuse together.
ReplyDeleteExcelentes fotografias de inverno....
