Linus doesn鈥檛 like snow. Unfortunately, the small dog lives in Calgary, which got its first taste of snow in early October.

To make the season a bit more bearable for Linus, his owner, Dan McFee, got out a shovel last week and spent a few hours plowing a winding maze through his backyard.

鈥淗e loves it. I鈥檒l come home from work and he鈥檒l run and do laps for about 10 minutes to burn off some excess energy. Just bouncing around, having a great time,鈥 McFee told 麻豆影视 Channel on Friday.

The boisterous dog now gets excited by the idea of going out into the cold, McFee says.

鈥淲hen it gets dark, I stand out by the door and hit it with the laser. He just goes nuts for it,鈥 McFee told 麻豆影视 Channel on Friday.

But just as Linus may have memorized the route, McFee said he plans to redraw the maze鈥檚 route when Calgary gets hit by a fresh snowfall next week.

鈥淜eep it interesting for him,鈥 McFee said.
