Shiba Inu in the snow: Japanese dogs melt hearts with their love for the cold【Pics & Video】
Warm your cockles with these smiling pups gleefully throwing themselves into the snow.
A cold snap hit Japan over the past few days, and as people rugged up and stayed warm indoors, some dog owners in the country’s coldest regions put on their coats and ventured outdoors.
As it turns out, one particular breed who didn’t mind the sub-zero walkies was the Shiba Inu. And while this Japanese dog breed is beloved at any time of the year, add a field of snow to the equation and the combination becomes almost too adorable to bear!
▼ Cute like a fox in the snow.

According to this owner, their Shiba was taken out for a toilet break, but ended up throwing itself gleefully into the snow instead.
結構雪が積もっています。 おトイレ散歩だけのつもりだったんだけど、また雪に突っ込んで行く黒柴😩 無理矢理うちの中に入れたら怒りMAX💢 「私はまだお外で遊びたいんじゃ〜!」 …午後から雪かきです😭 #大館市 #黒柴 #柴犬… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

A day earlier, the same dog had dived for treasure in the snow, despite the chilly minus-6-degree Celsius (21.2-degree Fahrenheit) weather.
おはようございます。 今の大館市は-6度位。日中の最高気温もマイナスの予報です🥶 雪には必ず突っ込んで行く黒柴。 #大館市 #黒柴 #柴犬 #冬のルーティーン #みてる方が寒い https://t.co/NYtVfmS3ux

Some Shiba went straight for mounds of snow, conquering them like mini mountains.

Even young puppies like the view from a mountain, even though they may need some more practice on getting down.

This Shiba’s journey to the top of a snow mountain is particularly moving, with the emotive music creating a scene that looks straight from a film.

The next day, this pup chased after a bird, hilariously covering itself in snow in the process.

Nakkun ran off on an adventure but stopped and returned like a good doge as soon as he heard his name being called.

▼ No bones about it, Shiba and snow are a winning combination.

With more snow forecast for Japan’s northern and western regions in the coming weeks, the good news is we’ll be able to enjoy more of these Shiba shenanigans in the near future.
Which is a win-win situation for us and Japan’s doge population.
