The answer to your wintertime misery may lie in acquiring a dog—more especially, a Corgi.
Hudson the Fluffy Corgi (@hudsonthefluffyco), a TikTok user, argued on January 8th, 2018, for relocation to a place where there would be plenty of opportunity for snow play. Look it over!
An 8-second film featuring a lovely Corgi has the potential to change people’s perceptions about snow.
People Love Snow Because of Dogs
In the video, we see Hudson walking with his human companion on their regular routine. He is eager to release all of his pent-up energy, of which there is probably plenty, given he is wearing his harness leash.
He’s walking on snow-covered grass, so he’s also wearing small booties to protect his feet. And Hudson is enjoying the time of his life, even though a lot of people don’t care that he’s wandering in the snow.
But he’s not running, and he’s not walking. Instead, he’s hopping around like a rabbit, and if there was more sound in the video, I’m sure we would hear him making the cutest dog noises ever.
The wording on the screen says, “Dogs make snow more enjoyable because it brings him so much joy.”
His mom emphasizes this once again in the caption of the video, adding, “The snow bunny has arrived.” And although though he is a dog, his small size makes him resemble a bunny rabbit hopping through the chilly snow, which makes it the loveliest thing ever.
Many in the comments praised Hudson and the video in general.
One commenter remarked, “His lil boots,” along with a heart and a sobbing emoji.
Another person wrote, “Cutest fluffy boy.”
Still another said, “So cute.”
“Oh, my heart! This is so healthy!” said another.
“More like ‘ more yellower,'” a different TikTok user made fun of
It’s Important to Check the Weather Before Taking Your Dog Outside in the Snow
It’s crucial to properly get your dog ready for the next colder months, advises the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
“Exposure to winter’s dry, cold air and chilly rain, sleet, and snow can cause chapped paws and itchy, flaking skin, but these aren’t the only discomforts pets can suffer,” according to the experts.
For really cold seasons, they advise against shaving or trimming your dog’s hair too short, and to bathe them “as little as possible during cold spells.”
They also recommend that you “make sure your companion animal has a warm place to sleep, off the floor and away from all drafts.”
Comparing your dog’s clothing to your own mood is one of the best methods to make sure it is appropriate for the weather. “If it’s too cold for you, it’s probably too cold for your pet, so keep your animals inside,” they say.
“Pets can freeze, become disoriented, lost, stolen, injured, or killed if left outdoors,” the statement continues. Additionally, avoid leaving pets alone in cars during the winter since they can freeze to death because cars can behave as refrigerators by trapping in the cold.”
We’re happy that Hudson can play outside in the snow without feeling too cold!
