soc_puppet: Dreamsheep as Lumpy Space Princess from Adventure Time (Default)

It is snowing in southeast Iowa. Probably in other parts of Iowa as well.

Chester the dachshund has liked snow exactly once, and that was the first time he saw it. After that, he quickly realized that snow is simply rain on a time delay, and he doesn't like rain. It's difficult to get him outside to do his business in any precipitation, and also when it's cold enough out that we want him to wear a sweater, and snowing is (usually) two of those things at once.

This afternoon I managed to get him bundled up by sweater-ifying him while he was half-asleep on the couch; after that, I got him to spend more time outside by denying his initial request to go back in after spending only sixty seconds out. We went for a bit of a romp around the yard; while it wasn't as much of a walk as I would have liked, it was still better than if I'd have let him go right back in. Hopefully the weather will be better tomorrow.

In other news, my Mukluks have officially gotten their first real taste of winter weather and have passed with flying colors. An expensive purchase, but with the weather in Iowa sometimes getting ridiculous bad, very worth it.
