Yes, folks, it is SNOWING in southeastern Virginia. I don't remember having snow this early here for many years. My 20.5 month old Berner went out and stared at the sky, trying to figure out what this hard stuff was, pelting him in the head!!! As you may remember, Klarsson is a "rescue" that I adopted in August. He is adjusting well and I've been reading him the emails from you folks up North about the snow and the Berners. I have noticed that on the mornings that it is really cold outside, I have a hard time getting him to come back in the house. He goes out, does his thing, and then lays down on the cold concrete. My Sheltie, on the other hand, wants to run back into the warm house because she is shivering (she has blown all her coat)... Anyway, Klarsson's first family lived near Greenville, SC so I don't know if he has ever really seen snow (read falling ice) before. He is pretty cute!!!
So, maybe it'll snow a lot (about an inch) here so things will shut down and then I can take the dogs to my parents to romp (they have an acre and a half of yard) so he can REALLY get the snow experience.
