Snout in snow makes me sneeze &#8211; love that. And gobbling snow on the run is just another pleasure I can\u2019t pass up. On a winter walk, the air is dry, so I hydrate. It\u2019s what great athletes do \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>One caveat &#8211; if your dog is older and eats snow obsessively, you might want to make a trip to the V-E-T (I have to spell it for those sensitive dogs out there.) It could be a sign of a health problem.<\/p>\n<p>But if your dog is just as quirky, and dare I say, lovable as I am, Let them eat snow!<br \/>\n<br \/>\n*This post was originally published in December 2008.<\/p>\n<div class=\"linkwithin_hook\" id=\"https:\/\/cynthomas.com\/journal\/snow-dog\/\"><\/div><script>\r\n<!-- \/\/LinkWithinCodeStart\r\nvar linkwithin_site_id = 1331825;\r\nvar linkwithin_div_class = \"linkwithin_hook\";\r\n\/\/LinkWithinCodeEnd -->\r\n<\/script>\r\n<script src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/widget.js\"><\/script>\r\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/\"><img src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/pixel.png\" alt=\"Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger...\" style=\"border: 0\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Is there anything better than sticking your snout in snow?
