We have snow!

I took my grand dogs out. The big dog is short-haired and the snow is up to her ankles. The little dog is long-haired and the snow is up to her chest. She came in looking like a Yeti. A few years ago, I read online that you could use a metal kitchen whisk and swipe the snow out of the dog's hair. I just tried it and it works like a charm! She appreciated getting the clumps of snow off quick, and then getting wiped off with a dry towel. I appreciated not getting numb fingers

The whisk thing is clever. I will pass it along to my friends with dogs.
