For most of the U.S., summer is in full-swing… The snow has melted, flowers are in bloom, and the sun is out.

But for one backyard inhabited by an adorable black Lab, winter just won’t leave. And it’s probably for the best…

You see…this pup really doesn’t want summer to come.

But there’s nothing he can do about it.

No matter how diligently he guards this lone snow pile…

It continues to dwindle every day.

Sigh…

You can’t say he isn’t dedicated to his cause.

The denial is strong with this one.

“Winter, don’t leave!”

Oh dear…

Well, it was fun while it lasted.

Someone get this pup one of these, stat!
