Charlie Harley, #14153 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Yes, I know what makes the snow and have done so myself a few times. But that’s not the ponderance of the moment. With a week of snow on the ground, every spot of yellow snow still shines. On Jack’s walks,, he stops at each spot for a moment. Why do some spots warrant a minor sniff and move one, some a deeper inhale, a few he buries his face in ecstasy, and he adds his own yellow to about half. What does he glean from yellow snow to elicit such diverse reactions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpo Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Well there's always the possibility that some of that yellow snow was put down by a female in season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyesa Horg Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 When I walk Kimber she checks every poop and pee along the way! If it's her's, she takes a quick wife and continues on, if not she pees on it! Seems to have a never ending marking bladder! After a snow storm gets plowed, it's take forever to get down the road and back as all the smells are now mixed and new! A bobcat left a small pee spot in a snow ball along the driveway, we have to check and remark it twice every day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Injun Ryder, SASS #36201L Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Custer and Ginger (neighbor's dog) have a three-pee routine. First one pees, then the other, then the first one again. Doesn't matter which of the two goes first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
