A video of a dog going sledding on her own is going viral, the 3-year-old Australian shepherd seeming to enjoy it as much as any kid.
The video, which has nearly 194,000 views on Instagram, shows Sioux City, Iowa, dog Secret dragging her sled up the hill, then hopping on and riding it all the way down the hill.
“She probably went down this hill 50 times today,” Secret's owner Mary wrote on Instagram, adding that the dog loves the snow.
Another recent post showed Secret helping decorate the Christmas tree by putting balls on it with her mouth.
Cold air has gripped much of the United States since Christmas, and Winter Storm Grayson’s bomb cyclone dumped more than a foot of snow on parts of New England Thursday and brought extreme cold to the East Coast, leading to snow as far south as Tampa, Florida.
Eight deaths are now blamed on the storm, and hundreds of flights were canceled as the storm moved through the area.
Instagram commenters loved the video of the happy dog going sledding.
"Omg what a smart puppy! Love it," wrote one person.
"I can watch this 50x!! Just too awesome not to share!!!" wrote another.
