Well, Christmas in March.

IT'S SNOWING!

I'd guess we've already gotten something like 4", hopefully it'll continue. It's mostly filled in my shoe prints in about 90 minutes, so I'd rate it as fairly brisk, though it's probably light for most people's standards.

One thing's for sure: it's going to be really tough getting our poodle to go out and poop!

We've got 4-6" sitting out there right now, so that will definitely help with our fire season. Not a huge amount, but anything helps.

My wife's plan for making the poodle go out and to the bathroom was to push her out and close the door, keeping her out until she went. The poodle thought differently. Wouldn't get near the door. :-) We're planning on Russet coming down to Alamo for dinner and seeing V for Vendetta, she'll bring the poodle for an supersized poop in the park.

What a weenie dog. XD

I remember when we first moved here and got 18" of snow. We opened the sliding glass patio doors to shovel it away (so that it would melt into the house) and Zeke just marched right out there into the snowbank to check it out.

I finally got the poodle to go out. She walked to the bottom step, said screw this, turned around and came back inside.

Russet's previous dog, Daniel, was different. He'd go through the snow to the carport. It's a two car design, and with only Russet's car there, lots of unsnowed (albeit cold) ground for the poodle to piddle on. So that worked reasonably well. She still took him down to Alamogordo every couple of days to let him frolic in the park.

Russet and her then-boyfriend gave Daniel his first exposure to snow up in Philadelphia IIRC. They picked up the dog by his front and rear legs, swung him to a "1-2-3" and hurled him into a snow bank. Apparently Daniel enjoyed it because he dug himself out, ran back to them, and wanted to be thrown in again.
