  2. Hi Eivor and Pearl. Have fun in your snow! Snow is the best thing in the world. Since yesterday, our snow is melting. Martha says we’ll get more. I hope we do because snow is the meaning of life. Your friend, Polar Bear Yeti T. Dog

    1. Hi Tracy, Eivor and Pearl have hair between their pads too and the pads themselves contain the highest concentration of insulating fat in their bodies. They don’t wear booties but they wear an organic paw balm so they can run and zoom through the snow without losing their grip 🙂🐾💖🐾 xxx
