So, my oldest dog, Daisy, was given 1-3 months to live after cancer was found throughout her body. What do you do when life gives your dog cancer? You go play in the snow!!!!! We didn't want to sit around all weekend moping, so we took the two mutts up to the mountain to play. Daisy has always been a huge fan of snow and water. She and the other dog found a creek next to the meadow that we were playing in, and went for a swim. I was freezing bundled up on land and they were playing polar bear before we even knew there was liquid water in the area.
For those of you who are wondering, Yes- I am one of those guys who treats their dog like a child. Daisy is 11 and we've had her since my son was 5. Most of his memories involve her eating shoes or barfing on his rug and lots of playing in water.
So, here are a couple of pictures from the day. One is of Daisy chilling in the snow. I ended up blowing out the snow so there would be detail in her black fur. I know a lot of people like to see texture in snow, but when I set my exposure, I got what I wanted.
The other picture is Daisy sitting and watching her idiot brother catching snowballs in the air.
