Remember

We have Woofstock meetup this Saturday (see the details on the side menu on the main page) and a dental clinic on the 28th. If interested in the dental clinic, send Nathan mail, please.

Here is the gallery.

It is way too hot for the dogs outside but early today before the heat got bad we did have Charlie highly curious with the squirrels running all over. It was fun to watch, Usually Harlow takes the lead in this but as I said, the older dogs can't handle this heat - nor can I this afternoon. I did weed 1st thing in the morning but won't today. Maybe I will try again tomorrow morning. I do not seem to have the stamina. Perhaps it is due to doing what Nathan usually does on top of everything. He is on ozempic for diabetes and since they doubled his dose, he's not in a good place so I am exploring anti nasuea non drowsy over the counter meds. Wish me luck. 

I did put a ton of ice in the water bowls and a couple of the dogs literally placed their face in it and left it there without drinking. Maybe I should try that. Does that work?

I am thankful for air for the dogs and for us. Despite this heat dome, we do take them out early to play at say 730ish and after the sun goes down then quick ins and outs throughout the day. Mostly they just want to lay in the shade - not weed. Who is smarter. Not I!

My 2 had 1early single block walk but mostly out and then back in.
I say too hot for me, too hot for doggies and I tell that to everyone we meet. People still ask when I'm going to get their hair cut for the summer, nope, still growing it and it's been 6 years since we got them😁🥰

People do not realize that they are cooler with long hair than short. They can't wrap their heads around it. The double coat insulates them. They heat up more with a short coat.
