makes it very difficult at times... all this snow - again - then the rain, and more rain. but it hasn't got rid of the snow! Not up at the track or in the woods anyway, yesterdy and today it was the weirdest thing - like walking through a slush puppy! The ground is still frozen, you see, and although it's too warm to snow it's too cold for the snow to melt so you get about 3-3 inches of water sitting on top of the snow and when you walk on it it mushes down into slush. With hard-packed, frozen snow underneath in many areas! It just makes it all that slightly bit harder... poor Murpy's walks have been a bit on the perfunctory side.
Maddie loves it though, the only differenceis that she races through all these HUGE puddles and then jumps on you. Her paws seem to be very sponge-like, they certainly leave lots of water all over you! (and mud when she's been under the tree in the garden terrorising the cat (three times tonight - I had to carry her in each time before she annoyed the neighbours with her constant barking at her)
