A blue and tan Yorkshire Terrier and a pink piglet sit close together on a blanket by a frosty window. 18 / 38

Frost Covered the Window, and Two Small Friends Stayed Warm Together

AI imageyorkshire terrierpigletwinter

Winter has painted the window with feathery frost, and two friends have settled in to admire it. A blue and tan Yorkshire Terrier sits upright on a woolly blanket, whiskery face turned toward the glass, his small ears perked. Snug against his side, a pink piglet rests with her snout near the cold pane, her ears relaxed and her eyes calm. A cluttered shelf and a hanging towel fill the room behind them.

Yorkshire Terriers are tiny dogs with big personalities, originally bred to catch rats in mills, and they bring a lot of spirit to their small bodies. Because they are so small and have fine coats, they feel the cold quickly, so a warm blanket or sweater is helpful in winter. Piglets also get cold easily, and a draft-free, dry spot with thick bedding is important. A window perch is fun, but glass can be chilly, so keep a soft layer between them and the pane. If you are caring for a young pig through the winter, ask your vet about temperature and bedding.

Let's call the little pig Pearl. She is leaning against the Yorkie for warmth, and he is leaning back, feeling quite important as her radiator. Outside the frost keeps spreading, tiny stars across the glass. Inside, two small animals sit shoulder to shoulder, warm enough, watching the cold from the right side of the window.
