I was wondering how to categorize Mr. N's snow activities for the exercise diary on PetsMove. It's definitely something more intense than just walking when the snow is taller than your legs and you have to wade through it! I was tempted to put down swimming.
Mr N., you're a real trooper! Looks like a cross country snow trek to me! Do they have that category?! Also, what kind of all-weather gear are you wearing. If we get more snow in Atlanta we may need to look into something like that!

It's not a perfect solution but we (much like you) don't keep much cold weather gear around because we don't really need it. He's wearing a Goldpaws fleece, fleece pajamas and a K9 Topcoat and I put balm on his paws. He still got cold though if he wasn't moving. Rocco has more coat though right?
DeleteHi Y'all!
ReplyDeleteYou look so very cute sittin' there in that pile of snow.
Y'all come by now,

On Petsmove.org, use the "other high intensity" to classify snow workouts!

Thanks! I think I went with run/walk, I'll have to change it.
DeleteThat looks like a pretty good workout. We've never been in snow that deep so can't imagine how hard it is to move around in it!
ReplyDeleteMy legs ached for three days straight after. I think I overdid it. Mr. N was fine lol.
DeleteGlad to see Im not the only one burried under the snow! Stay warm out there! Also love PetsMove
ReplyDeleteOurs all melted lol. But we're traveling next month so more snow may be in our future.
DeleteHe sure got a workout. I would say climbing and swimming. :)
ReplyDeleteWalking/hiking in the snow is a great workout for a dog like you, Mr. N. Plus, all you have to do is scoop up some white stuff to munch on if you get hungry! Hehe. Much love, The Scottie Mom.
ReplyDeleteSnow swimming would sum it up nicely....great FitDog workout for an energetic terrier
ReplyDeleteWe just don't get snow here in Australia like that unless you're up in the mountains - which for us is a 4 hour min drive away. Want to take Kate snow camping this year though! Do you wear doggie booties at all? Investigating gear for Kate the Kelpie!
