It snowed a little Monday night and we woke up to a beautiful scene yesterday. Because technically it’s Spring and we’re dealing with the Knuckleheads, this the obvious progression (mostly with Elsa since Sam would rather set his fur on fire than get wet) once it begins to melt.
You planning on any ‘cuddling’ today? Our forecast calls for ‘possible’ showers turning to snow so I’m betting there’s an extra amount around of cuddling around the Ranch. Happy mid-week.
Live, love, bark 🐾
Hi Monika,
We don’t have the melting snow problem around here, but we do have the evening sprinkler system. Rosie turns into the midnight Ninja chasing the water. There’s one in every crowd and most of our dog stories are about Miss Rosie these days.
Best wishes,
Ro
She seems like she has quite the personality.
We are getting rain instead of snow today, and we’re ready for the rest of the snow to be washed away; even though we’d rather be seeing sunshine (I think we might later today).
Here’s to sunny skies for you 🌞
No rain here. Nothing to see – move along. The water level at the Wetland is down quite a bit and there is no bird life to speak of – except seagulls and they don’t really count.
We share that sentiment, both on the water levels and birdlife.
I believe that cuddling weather in most parts of the Northeast is coming to an end. Or should I say, it’s changing. While no longer mandatory in order to keep from freezing, it’s still a quite acceptable form of How Do, lol.
Cuddling weather is a year round venture in these parts.
A good point!
OMD, Ma has that look (of that woman in the last pic) when I come at her with my slobbery beard!!! BOL!!!! Hey, you guys can come on overs here…it’s gonna be 85 tomorrow. sigh. Ma wants to knows where Spring went ~ we went from Winter to Summer….it’s just not right!
Kisses,
Ruby ♥
Oh yeah, those slobbery Muppet beards. And the very best when served on a cold day on a bare huMom’s skin! {snort}
We like cold but we prefer snow to rain and mud. It is warming up here!!!
hugs

Looks like a warming trend here as well. So much for winter. 🙃
Our back yard turns into a lake when it rains and having a cuddly water dog makes for some messy days. They always look so proud of themselves, too.
Indeed, they seem to know exactly what they’re doing when they’re all wet.
That but jumping on my bed!
Mine come racing inside at full gallop trying to hop up on the sofa. Umm, guys….NOOOOOOO! 😇
We don’t have snow just lots of mud 😣
Spring translates into mud everywhere. 😀
Lots of cuddle time tonight at bed time!! Wish we could’ve had morning cuddles but I had to go to work 😒 I remind myself that I work so the doggies can have a better life!
We all do that! Talk about a dogs’ life! 😍
Jealous!
What a great sequence. Rainy here the past two days … More tomorrow already cancelling baseball’s Opening Day in Cincinnati.
It alway seemed bizarre to have opening weekend in the beginning of April. Weather is just too unpredictable. It’s currently a mix of rain and snow right now here.
Baseball leadership moved opening a week earlier in order to give players more breaks during the season. Especially since some off-days get turned into game day because of rainouts. However, I don’t like it!
It’s just dumb having baseball when it’s still snowing. That’s hockey weather! 😊
LOL … Yep!
Opening Day is a HUGE Cincinnati tradition … and the timing of MLB’s change messed with part of that tradition. Then again, it’s not the first time. Opening Day here is like no other place!
To each his own. I’m sticking with scars and pucks in April. 😊
Good idea!
Tippy doesn’t DO rain, but loves snow. Thankfully, she also knows if she is wet and muddy that she has to get cleaned up before she can come in the house, so she doesn’t just run in. But, even messy cuddles are nice.
Cuddles anytime make us huMoms smile from the inside out. 💖
They certainly do!
Oh yes….all run outside in the rainy season, roll in mud and sheep shit if nothing more obnoxious is to hand, race back in to see who can be first for a cuddle…
Devilish little plotters, aren’t they? There must be some rule in the universal dog manual about doing that.
Wish we had some snow so we could test that out!!! We are still putting the Paw Plunger put to use:(
Woos – Lightning, Misty, and Timber
Cleaning muddy feet is the toughest job. For both dogs and moms…everywhere!
Hmmmm….sounds like our Rosy too…She just LOVES the dirt…and mud…and rain…*sigh*
Sweet little Princess Rosy? Who’d have thunk it? 😄
Glory rolled in stink today and wanted cuddles!
It never fails! 😆
Thankfully, Choppy tends to avoid the mud. Algae-covered ponds, though? She loves those. So we’re safe for now. Though come summer…
😆
Mom says after today our weather will be very springy!
Keep Calm & Bark On!
Murphy & Stanley
With that last gasp of our so-called winter, I think there’s definitely going to be much more springy here too.
Keep the wet stuff coming! Hope you get your fill over the next few weeks. As for Elsa I feel your pain because miss Kloe will perform the same routine when it snows as often as we allow her too, which is often cause she’s spoiled. But then again aren’t we all spoiled by our loving pups. Enjoy your cuddle time with the ranch hands.
I totally agree. I hope to never complain about wet walks or wet cuddles. Ear scratches to the ‘spoiled’ ones.
That’s the way it goes too. They don’t realize they are muddy or wet. They just want love.
Have a woof woof Wordless Wednesday. My best to your mom. ♥
Thanks. We pups are always more affectionate when we’re wet or goobered up. That’s just the way we roll.
It’s a beautiful day here and we’re predicting all of that stuff except for the puddle.
We’re all about whatever floats your cuddle.
Yucko on the weather. I think Elsa is so glad to be free of that horrible puppy mill that she revels in everything. Oh, and I never met a schnauzer who minded the weather.
She displays such joy when running the length of the yard. It always makes me smile at how much she enjoys her life now.
Cuddle with a wet dog? Only if I have a raincoat on, thank you. But my girls – all 4 of them – knew/know that the first thing they get after being outside in the rain or snow is dried off with a big, soft, fuzzy towel. Then they get their paws wiped off. The rest of the day we can cuddle or play or do whatever.
I had to towel off the dogs yesterday after their morning walk, the splash back factor was pretty wet. They both looked like they were being punished. Talk about drama queens!
That’s poodles for ya! Kissy was the same way. Callie loved it “cuz” I made a game of peekaboo out of it from the time she was a puppy, just like with Shadow. Ducky likes the game but pretends not to. Oh, the personality of that little monster! 😍
They both deserve Emmys for their hang-dog looks when getting toweled off.
that are the 4 steps to happiness, right?
Especially for Knuckleheads and Ninjas. ☺️
