I have 4 dogs, one lives outside and just hates to come inside. Of course when it gets really cold out we bring him inside. The others live inside. The one dogs seems to like the snow. The other two do not really like the snow, I am not sure whether or not it is because they are small and the snow is so high but they do not like it. So does your dog like the snow? Do they run out and play in the snow or do they try to run back inside right away?

What kind of dogs do you have? Which ones like the snow and which do not? I live ion Florida. So, I highly doubt either of my miniature pinschers like snow. I did get them from states that snow. But it has been so long that they would freze being outside. Mine don't like being outside unless the sun is shining. They hate the rain.

I have a shepherd/husky cross and he loves the snow. I have a heeler and he likes the snow. And I have 2 papillons and they are not very fond of the snow.

My dog is a short hair whippet breed. Mostly made of muscle. She gets cold easily. She jumps out does her buz, and back in. And that happens as quickly as her legs can carry her. Which is pretty fast since whippets are related to greyhounds.

I'm staying in a tropical country and there's no winter, so my dog hasn't experienced any snow before. But I'm sure she'll like the snow, and play with it. Whenever it's raining, my dog always goes out in the rain and get wet, she seems really enjoy doing it.

All 3 of our dogs hate the snow. They don't want to be out any longer than it takes to go potty and back in they go. I have a brother who's dog love the snow though. He goes out and runs around and messes up all the snow.

My dog loves the snow, and so did my old dog. When my sister and I were little, we would attach the family dog to a sled with her harness and she would pull us in the sled! It was a lot of fun. I thought all dogs loved to play in the snow, but I guess it makes sense that some small dogs wouldn't like it as much.

I have always wanted to hook up our big dog and let him pull the little kids around. Just never got around to doing it. Thanks for commenting.

My dog is half Huskey and LOOOOVES the snow! He gets very frisky the minute the weather gets colder. In the summer, he lays aroung like a blob. The winter is his favorite time!

Our outside dog is half husky as well and I can understand the laying around like a blob. Thanks for sharing.
