Do I Have Something on My Face?



Pit bulls are not bred for the snow.  Peanut is no exception.  Her belly is totally naked and although she loves to race through the woods, she is reluctant to plow through the snow as she cannot see what is below it.  When we snowshoe, she sticks to the trails running ahead in the compacted path, stopping to wait for us, shivering and taking turns lifting each paw from the snowy ground, relieving it from the cold surface.  On this day, I managed to capture her "can we PLEASE go home now look" when after spending 15 minutes at the park, she refused to chase the tennis ball any more and instead followed me as I retrieved it.
