| Yorkies are Sun Children :D I've seen many of my friends' Yorkies do this also, so I believe that Yorkies are sun children. Maybe they are trying to get some happy endorphins from the sunlight... Khloe parks it in front of the glass door every day, making sure to lay where the sun is reflecting through. Anyone else's Furbabies enjoy this? Any experiences on how well they adapt to snow? Happy Wednesday, or 'Hump Day'.

| My Annie B would drag the blanket around the room all day long to keep it in the sun beam. Gracie Ruth LOVES the snow. We had 3 major snow falls in Dallas last year and she was impossible to keep out of it every time. DH wanted me to put a jacket on her before she went out but I told him her finally getting too cold was the only way to get her to come back in. I said she could wear a jacket if he was willing to tromp out there to drag her bum back in. lol He was happy to have her go out without a jacket when I put it that way. Tracking wild game in the fresh snow Lost in near white out conditions. Don't melt my snowballs off with the hair dryer, Momma. Let's put them in the freezer for later!! Can I go back out NOW, Momma?

| I think every breed does this, because our doxies do the same thing!

They look very healthy, and you have motivated me to try to pull away from feeding so much table food to Khloe when she begs, barks, and whines. She should get a waistline back instead of a bulge if I stay consistent. It's funny how some love the sun and others like the snow. I wonder if Khloe will do well with snow or if it is a 'one extreme or another' type of person. Thanks for sharing again, and enjoy your week. Love your little babies!

| Pippin loves the sun too. He likes to go outside and lay on our deck in the sun, he even did it in the winter. He wasn't too happy with me when I made him come in because it was too cold to leave the door open. We let him just go out and lay in the sun during the spring and summer and we're having a mild fall so far so he likes to lay outside.

| Sophie chases sunbeams, too. She loves the snow also which is a blessing when she needs to go potty in the winter

| Wow, I thought Bandit was part-cat or something, I didn't know this was so common He just lays in the sun, even in the summer. When we just have the storm door open he's elated! We have to close it if people are walking by though because of his guard dog tenacity lol. |

| Liz is a sun worshipper too. She goes out to the patio, plops down on the hot concrete and starts baking. She also refuses to come in and when I go to get her she rolls onto her back like NOOOOOOO don't make me go in.

| Levi loves to lay in the sun too As far as the snow - he's not such a fan. He definitely prefers warmer weather and no precipitation at all!

| Lacie sits in the sun every once in a while. But most of the time she's moving around way too much to pay any attention to the sun. I'm curious what she'll think of the snow- she's still so young I think she'll learn to love it. Then maybe next summer she'll be old enough to enjoy some sun bathing. |
