Now that it has been getting colder, Hobie hasn't been too enthusiastic during his morning walks. After exploring dog park, we usually continue on, but lately, he's been stopping and sitting on the side walk, refusing to budge. Once I tell him that we're heading home instead, he pops up and performs his circle dance. I'm not sure if he's stopping because he's in pain, or if he's cold. I suspect it may be the latter.
So to combat the -1 temperature this morning, I put his coat on. It helped a little, but he was still stubborn and kept wanting to turn around to return home. And to think this is still relatively warm - it's supposed to dip down to -20 during the dead of winter. I'm sure Hobie will be thrilled.
Check out the picture a little closer. Notice there isn't a wagging tail to be seen.
