DOGS always love to roll around in the great outdoors . . . but add in a bit of snow and they go mutt-erly crazy.
And there’s a price to pay for our four-legged friends when the weather is as chilly as it is right now.

While they’re having fun, the snow can stick to their fur and give the impression they’ve been pelted with snowballs.
And as these winter woofers show, its not a n-ice feeling when your coat gets blanketed in the white stuff.
The images come as temperatures are expected to plummet tonight, with the mercury potentially reaching a bone-chilling -20C in northern parts of the country.
Earlier, the Met Office confirmed the mercury had plummeted to -14.5C in northern Scotland overnight.
However, the forecaster offered some respite for the milder temperatures expected next week.
Mr Eslick said: “Saturday is still going to be another cold one, unfortunately.”
However, clouds will come in from the west which should prevent temperatures dropping as quickly, he said.
