I love my dog

I love playing with my dog. He gets super excited and loves playing tag, tug-o-war, and wrestling. When I went outside yesterday to help my mom finish shoveling our driveway he made his rounds of the yard, then he ran down the street to say hi to our neighbor who was shoveling his driveway. Then he sprints back to me so I can make him a snowball. The second I reached down to get a fist full of snow he attacked. He kept jumping at my hands trying to get the snowball before I could throw it. So I packed it really tight and tossed it at him and he caught it and started whipping his head back and forth like he was trying to kill it. He cracks me up. Then he looks at me a certain way that tells me he wanted to play tag.....So we did. He does this thing where he tucks his butt when he knows I'm close to him. He goes sprinting into the yard full of snow tucking his butt as he goes by me, scooping up all the snow in his path. Then he runs by me a second time to see how close he can get before I catch him, tucks his butt again and escapes. As he's running away from me, he's running toward the mound of snow my mom had built up shoveling. Ran right into it full steam. KAPOOF!! Snow explodes everywhere!! It was awesome!! Then he turns around in our neighbors driveway to take another pass at me, but only after he rams into what's left of the mound of snow. He cracks me up. I love my dog so much.
