I can’t sit down, the ground is cold
I can’t sit down, the ground is cold
Yesterday I showed you some images from our walk on Monday. As I mentioned it was gray and chilly. Both dogs would rather go for long walks in cooler weather, but Roxy needs to keep moving or she is not happy.
There is a small picnic area in the pine trees beside the stream. I wanted to sit here for a minute and see if there were any birds in the trees. And listen to the stream. I tethered the dogs to the railing. I rarely do this, but wanted to focus on the trees and the sounds of the stream and not worry about what they were doing.
They were not impressed.
Roxy was hilarious though. Torrey can take the cold ground, she loves cool and is well insulated. Roxy…not so much. She kept trying to sit down on the cold concrete, but the second her butt hit the ground, she bounced right back up.
Then she backed up to Torrey and tried to sit on her. That didn’t really work out either, as Torrey is taller than her butt.
I ended up picking Roxy up because I knew her feet were probably cold too. Once we got moving again she was fine, and ready to go. This little gal can cover a four mile walk pretty easy.
Have a great Wednesday everyone!
BOL funny. At least Torrey makes for somewhere warm to sit Roxy’s butt. Have a wonderful Wednesday.
Best wishes Molly
Well Roxy, sounds like your person should be carrying a pillow for you to sit on when she wants to stop – no matter how many years you put into training humans the job is never done!
That Torrey is a darn cute!!!! A cuddly fur all…:)JP
Not all dogs were made to be out in the cold. Even some big breeds won’t lie down or sit if it is cold. We are like Torrey and don’t mind a bit. Good thing you can just pick Roxy up. Imagine if you had to carry Torrey, LOL!
too darn cute. :)
BWHahahahahha…Poor Roxy! I wouldn’t be too hap-pee either so I understand your pain!
I won’t sit down when its cold either Roxy I think it was a good idea to try it on Torrey. Love Dolly
Looks like it’s sweater weather for Roxy. Unfortunately, that doesn’t do anything to keep her butt warm.
She’d probably like you to stuff a little pillow for her in your backpack. :)
I love the pic with her tongue out! Too cute!
Awe poor baby!
My dogs don’t even like to sit on indoor vinyl or tile. They back up until they come on an area rug which is much warmer.
The ground is soooo cold right now. I don’t blame you!
Oh bless Roxy xx
Oh my dog, those pics are too cute! She’s obviously an excellent little communicator! “I’m cold, Mom. It’s really time to move on!” (Too bad Roxy’s legs aren’t long enough, cuz I bet Torrey would make a warm, comfy pillow!)
I obviously don’t know your dogs but I already love them. Well I’m an animal lover in general so that might have something to do with it;). haha, the picture of Roxy reminds me of me and Tory reminds me of my husband. I despise the cold and prefer to be in a nice 75 degree heat or warmer and my husband likes it cool. Roxy’s face made my day.
Living the life!!! But dont let that little tush freeze!
All of us are the same – we need to keep moving when it is super cold. I liked Roxy’s try at sitting on Torrey though! :)
Cute, very sweet!
Such a great idea trying to use Torrey she looks soft and warm!! Shasta
Your dogs are lovely!
Poor little Roxy, I wouldn’t want to sit on that cold ground either. :-)
A case where lots of fur is definitely a plus. :-)
