A rescue Greyhound experiencing snow for the first time is melting hearts on the popular social media app TikTok. Greyhounds are an ancient dog breed that is notable for their speed and agility. Sadly, this means that they are often used in competitive racing. At racetracks, Greyhounds are confined to small cages, deprived of socialization, and often denied adequate exercise. After they are too old or injured to continue racing, they are cruelly abandoned. Fortunately, many organizations focus on finding homes for these former racing dogs. Although details about the rescue Greyhound’s background are not given, they likely came from a similar background.

In the video, the elegant dog can be seen wearing a neon yellow jacket to protect them from the cold temperatures. A light dusting of snow coats the ground. Excited to experience this natural event for the first time, the rescue Greyhound gleefully presses their face to the ground and rolls ecstatically in the frozen precipitation.
TikTok users were charmed by the rescue Greyhound’s reaction to the snow. “Awwwww cute, funny, adorable”, wrote user Donna Walker. Others agreed since the video has been liked hundreds of times!
