The Window Was Frosted Over, and the Bulldog Watched It Like a Movie

AI imagebulldogchristmasfrosty window

Sunlight pours through the window, and a brindle and white Bulldog named Winnie sits in front of it, her head turned and her wrinkled face lit up. The glass is frosted with delicate patterns, and a pine wreath with a bow hangs beside her. Behind her, a plaid blanket and cushions sit on a couch, and a garland runs along the wall. She looks calm and thoughtful, watching the winter world. Her short, sturdy frame leans slightly toward the light, as though she has been sitting there for a good while and plans to stay for a good while longer.

Bulldogs are gentle, loyal dogs that love home comforts and are happiest near their people. Their flat faces make it harder to breathe and cool down, so they do best in a temperate home and should avoid heavy exercise in extreme weather, hot or cold. Cold windows can be chilly, so a soft cushion or bed helps. Their facial wrinkles need regular wiping to keep skin healthy, and your vet can show you how. Holiday plants such as holly and mistletoe can be harmful if chewed, so keep wreaths out of reach and watch what she sniffs.

Winnie takes in the frosty scene with perfect calm. Whatever is out there, she will watch it for as long as the sun is warm. A winter morning has few better companions than a calm dog, a warm sunbeam and a window full of frost.
