Winter is my Eskies favorite time of year. There is cold enough for outside activities, no heat that makes them suffer and the most important thing during winter: snow! You can run in the snow, play, chase each other, eat snow. So many things you can do!

| Just being in the snow is fun! |
Of course, I don't take my dogs for long walks when it's very cold, like this year in Chicago, when we had polar vortex(wrrr.) The temperatures dropped to -24F and with the wind, you could feel as cold as -50F. It was chilly, even my car's battery died. My dogs weren't walked for 2 days in a row during that time. But normal winter snowy days seems totally different for us: lots of fun outside!

| Eating snow is fun! |
When it's snowing, my Eskies rarely drink water from their dishes, they just love to chew snow!

| Digging in snow: maybe there are hidden treasures ;) |
Buddy often tends to dig in the snow, sometimes he refuses to leave his "treasure place" until he gets to the bottom. Most times the hidden treasures he finds out are grasses.

| Snow is fun at night too! |
During the night time, when it's colder, my American Eskimo dogs love to walk and run in the snow and it doesn't matter what's the time. The only negative experience of snow for dogs its time, when is a lot of salt that is bothering their paws. I always try to find places salt and other chemicals free, but it's not possible during quick walks.
