Cloud Turned the Pillow Into a Feather Storm Indoors

AI imagesamoyedpillow feathersliving room

Feathers float through the air all around a white Samoyed, who sits very still with her chin lifted and her dark eyes fixed on something far above. Scraps of torn pillowcase lie across the floor at her feet. In the background, a basket of laundry, a pair of slippers and a plant sit beside a curtained window. She looks like she is posing for a very fluffy portrait.

Samoyeds are friendly, gentle dogs with thick white coats and a famous smile. They were bred in Siberia to herd reindeer and keep their families warm, and they remain social, playful dogs who love company. Because they have so much energy, a Samoyed left with nothing to do can find creative ways to entertain herself, including shredding soft things. Feathers and stuffing can irritate the stomach if swallowed, so call your vet if you think she ate some.

Brushing a Samoyed regularly keeps that big coat comfortable, and it also cuts down on the amount of fluff around the house. Long walks, fetch and puzzle toys help keep a busy mind happy, and a sturdy bed of her own gives her something soft that is not a pillow.

Right now, it is hard to tell the feathers from her fur, and she seems perfectly at home in the storm. We might call her Cloud, and the name suits her very well.
