The real measure of the snow is that it reached up to the handle of my snow shovel...I had to shovel in layers...my poor old girl (she is 13) was traumatized by how the world changed. I shoveled her a circular area so she has space to do her business. I cant believe how much snow we had overnite!

Crumbs! A dog that weighs around the same as I do - yes I am on the rather short skinny side

Poor Story, I hope she recovers from her ablutions trauma. To be fair, if I was an animal I wouldn't want to be pulling my furry knickers down in the snow either!
