Bare ground is a rare and coveted thing at the ranch in February. You can usually find it only right next to building walls that are facing south (at least until a new snowstorm fills it all in again). I went out just now to put the dogs back up in the cottages for the afternoon and found wobbly Soba had found her patch of bare ground next to Keisha's Cottage. She had been sunning herself there for her mid-day lunch break. Her sister Noodle was not too far away, also enjoying the sun.
It may not look like Soba is very far down, but here's another perspective:
Of course, for a wobbler it's very easy to wobble your way down into that spot to catch some rays, but another thing to be able to get back out on your own. Which is why the ranch provides dogs like Soba with helpful lift-and-carry machines called humans.
