Hidden treasures of the melting snow

Tawny loves playing fetch. Not too surprising, since she is a Labrador Retriever after all. The problem with a lot of throw toys is that they are relatively heavy, so will sink down through the snow. One of the best toys to in the winter, is the Kong throw toy that is made out of tennis ball material with a decent length of rope (not too long, not too short). The tennis ball material is light enough that it won't sink too deep into the snow.

However, even though it might not sink too far into the snow, we do lose a few over the winter. The amazing thing about the melting snow is that the lost toys become found. On Wednesday, Tawny found two of these Kongs that she lost or dropped somewhere when a scent distracted her, so Freda came home with three of these!
