A Boston Terrier and a Lamb Kept Watch Over the First Snow

AI imageboston terrierlambsnowy window

Snowy trees fill the frosted window, and just below it a Boston Terrier sits upright with his big ears up and his white chest bright against his black coat. A small white lamb lies beside him with her ears out to the sides, staring toward the camera with a calm look. The room is cluttered in the happiest way, with a basket of laundry, boots and a heap of blankets. Everything inside looks warm and everything outside looks very cold.

Boston Terriers are friendly, short-haired dogs that do not tolerate cold well, so a warm spot by the window is very sensible. Their short noses also mean they can have trouble in extreme heat, so they are best kept indoors in either weather extreme. Lambs are born with a coat of wool, but very young ones still need shelter, especially during snowy weather. Farmers often use heat lamps and dry bedding for newborns, and unfamiliar environments can stress them. If you happen to be around a young lamb in winter, make sure it has a warm, dry place and speak to a vet or a farmer about care. Dry bedding, shelter from drafts and plenty of rest are crucial for a growing animal.

The snow keeps falling, and the two friends keep watching it. It looks like the best seats in the house.
