Has she ever said that she wouldn't leave the girls alone with the dog? While he does seem like a soppy bugger he is a very big dog, and when in the garden yesterday she was filming from the upstairs window so too far away if anything were to happen. Snow is a new environment and the girls were obviously excited,, but throw a snowball wrong and it hits the dog who knows . Guess I'm just extra cautious, most others I know never leave kids and dogs alone, and her filming from upstairs does actually mean they were alone with him!
