Simmer Down

There isn't much to do outside in the extreme heat of the summer. The morning dog park routine is fantastic but mid day can prove difficult for the pups. The pavement is too hot for their pads and the sun causes rapid dehydration. These two cold weather dogs don't do well in the heat but they do like laying in the sun. I try to keep them cool by giving them flavored ice cubes and by using small wet towels around their necks.

This time we stayed indoors and dumped out all their toys. Gave them the pick of the litter and had my own fun ;-)
