This is the first time I'm seeing them - love them!!  I wish we had some snow...shhhh lol  Murphy loves running in the snow, and we really haven't had any in Michigan this year for him to run in.  We've never made any mazes like that, that's awesome!!  I wonder if I could convince my husband to do that?  Probably not!  lol  The dogs usually create their own maze - a big circle around the pool is the first part, and around the deck.  I love how the yellow lab (is that Pearl?) waits and watches to see where the black one is running to!

Thanks for the smiles!

Thanks Donna, and glad my girls could add some fun and joy to your day...... It is hard to believe you live in Michigan and haven't had very much snow, I always thought those northern states get pounded, lol ...... And trust me, both my girls still try to make their own paths in the high snow, especially Zuzu who is my zany, love-of-life yellow Lab with a serious congenital heart valve defect, however, she enjoys and loves life like NO other dog I have ever seen 😊💜 And of course there is Pearl, who is my loving, gentle, and sweet-souled black Lab, that was raised from a young pup to her first birthday by my most special angel, Polly..... Pearl definitely aquired Polly's gentle demeanor and loving, soulful personality before Polly had to leave us for the Bridge almost exactly 2 years ago this month on the 16th.... ❤️🐾

yeah, this has been a very unusual winter, that's for sure!  This time last year we had a huge snow storm, I think we got 17" in 1 day.  This year we've had above average temperatures, it's so weird.  We have just a touch on the ground right now.  Here's a picture of Murphy outside from yesterday.
