Dalmatian excavates in the forest!

Walking with Lusi in the forest yesterday she starts to dig a hole:



Sunny conditions; there has been something of a thaw but the paths are still icy. The thaw has created ideal conditions for Lusi to savour the ground scents but she surprises me in her earnestness to excavate a hole. As her head starts to disappear in the hole I wonder if she has not come across a fox hole or some other wildlife habitat. 


Lusi's excavations end with her retiring from the hole with..... a big stick! I suppose if squirrels can hide nuts in a food stash...maybe dogs hide their sticks?


There's also a nice moment in the video when Lusi hears a train coming and she stops to listen! 


The liver-spotted coat of the Dalmatian is a perfect camouflage in the forest in winter!
