Despite having experienced snow before, a dog’s priceless reaction to a Montana winter became social media gold, bringing in over 3.5 million views within a week.
The dog’s owner and her mother took 2-year-old Lady outside to play in a November 27 TikTok video posted by user @slatermama. Lady is no stranger to snow after living in Kentucky. However, that doesn’t mean she’s a fan, and since Montana usually gets significantly more snow than the Bluegrass State, Lady was in for a rude awakening during her first winter there.
“My daughter moved home to Montana and Lady does NOT like the weather,” the mother told Newsweek via TikTok. “She refused to go outside even when it was nice.”
Lady had good weather when they moved in October. It was about 75 degrees, but even that was not Lady’s ideal weather. And now, with the snow sticking, her frustration level has increased.
In the clip, Lady sported a plaid jacket and doggy booties to protect her from the snow. She proceeded to the stairs but paused and intensely sniffed the snow. She couldn’t believe this wintry mix had followed her to her new home.
Someone then dared to ask if she was going to play. She whipped her head back and shot her family a death glare: Absolutely not.
The text on the clip reads: “When a Kentucky dog moves to Montana.”
Lady, a dog from Kentucky, reacts to winter in Montana winter, where she now lives. She couldn’t believe she had to wear boots and a jacket to play outside.

Lady knew there was no other option if she wanted to play outside. Swallowing her pride, she walked down the stairs and tested her snow boots. She eventually got the hang of it and took off running, with her booties flying off. If she was going to be in the snow, she at least wanted to be comfortable without the shoes.
“I am excited to see how she reacts to the big snows we always get in Montana and some different booties that might stay on,” the mother said.
Viewers couldn’t stop cracking up over the dog’s reaction to snow. Within a week, the TikTok clip has amassed over 735,100 likes and 2,081 comments.
“She, in fact, did NOT wanna go play,” pointed out one user, while another joked: “She blamed you for the snow.”
A second person wrote: “She looked at you like ‘Not funny mom.'”
Another added: “She cussed at you when she looked back.”
Lady isn’t the only dog to protest winter weather. Several other users shared similar stories of their dogs wanting absolutely nothing to do with the cold after moving from warm-weather states like Hawaii and Arizona.
