Don't eat the yellow snow.

Our dogs love the snow.  They love to jump in it and chase snowballs, but most of all they like to eat it.  They walk along, noses to the ground, grabbing mouthfuls of the cold, white treat.  This is a common practice, which inevitably by halfway through the walk they're now stopping every 5 minutes to pee, Piper always in the lead.  Yesterday's walk was no different.  They were running and eating up a storm.  Piper stopped to pee briefly then continued on.  Izzy, following close behind, was innocently munching mouthfuls of snow.  She was doing this in such a methodical manner, that she obviously didn't realize the yellow snow right in front of her.  She grabbed a mouthful, immediately spit it out, shook her head, and then simply moved forward down the trail continuing to eat snow.  The moral of the story....don't eat the yellow snow.


I am also happy to share that last night the grandest of things occurred...I caught a mouse.  FINALLY!
