PON + Snow = Happiness .

A bitterly cold night brings snow . Glacial conditions that make humans want to stay indoors near the fire. Not Wilf . Something deep, deep in his DNA says that this is Polish Lowland Sheepdog weather . His natural habitat . Bydgoszcz comes to France Profonde .

Out of the front door straight after breakfast . Barreling along. Arthritis forgotten . Across the lane at a trot. Onto his back on the frosty village green . Backside wagging twenty to the dozen . A furry metronome gone mad with delight .

Incredible that the old fellow should be like this . A picture of frolicking fun . Age and illness mere irritants to be brushed aside . There again senior PON's know : " When the odds are a million to one , be the one ".

  3. What a treat for Wilf! And that makes it endurable for Angus, we're sure. Hope the weather doesn't delay the font's return to the fold.

  4. Oh it all looks so beautiful in the snow there. Lucky Wilf.
    Cheers, Gail (in dry and sunny Aberdeen, although it is, finally, properly cold here too this morning).

  10. Petey's a little Scottish dog, nonetheless he loves the snow! Immediately buries his face in it and more times than not, comes up with a new ball. How this happens in Manhattan Profonde is a mystery. This winter, he just has to make due with miles of snowy white beaches! Enjoy it, Wilfie!

  15. Snow makes our Pembroke Welsh Corgi go mad - running about the yard, swinging off the apple tree on his tire roap and finally coming inside by the fire panting and wet. Snow is the great rejuvenator and begs dogs and their people to come outside and become child-like again.

  18. You need to move to Canada!!! Wilf would have such a blast from November to April!! Sadly, it means the humans don't have a blast from November to April though! We want it to be over, but the dogs love the snow. I can feel Wilf's energy all the way from France!! Keep on going Wilf!

    With love from your Canadian pals,
    Dianna along with Tor, Willow and Tucker

  20. I love the picture that you painted of a playful and very happy Wilf. Yes, let us be the ones.

  21. Ah, Wilfee, I know how you pups are in the snow, mad and manicacle! I like it deeper, though, do you? I like to stick my snooter down deep until I can smell a mouse or vole!

    Keep having fun in it!

    Cheers,
