A Weimaraner has the time of her life sledging in the Italian mountains – but her owner drops her halfway down a slope.
Bella was riding with ‘mother’ Victoria, who is from the Province of Venice, on her 27th birthday when she fell off the toboggan in the Dolomites.
The footage starts as Bella, who has been with Victoria for years, was in her arms as she slides along the snowy path.

But she gets spooked and starts to fidget as the sledge continues to race down the hill.
Bella goes over Victoria’s shoulder and sprawls out on the snow, yet quickly gets back to her feet and runs after her.
The dog overtakes her owner and wags her tail as she bounds towards a picturesque chalet at the foot of a mountain.

The clip was posted on Pippo and Bella – Victoria’s other Weimaraner that her and her fiance got in October 2018 – Instagram two weeks ago.
It had the caption: ‘Happy 27th birthday to our human mom, who sometimes lets us fall, but never lets us down!’
Social media users commented on the video, with one saying: ‘Omg we need to try this!! All I need is a snow, Italy, mountains, sledge… The only thing I have is the dog!’
Another put: ‘Happy birthdday!! A graceful fall is not even a fall.’
And one woman added: ‘So fun! What a wonderful wonderful to celebrate your momma’s birthday! I’m sure you & Bella gave her extra kisses!!’
