I don’t know about your dog, but mine gets lazy when it’s too hot out and doesn’t want to go for a walk.
My last dog, Chica, a beautiful yellow lab, needed a lot of exercise or she was a handful. I worried about her overheating, so for us, water was the answer.
Here she is diving into a pond (and yes I photo-shopped this photo) at the magnificent Greywolf Golf Course in Panorama BC.
The pond was only a few minutes from our house, but still, I had to drag her there. She knew lying is the shade was a good answer, but once I got her to the water she could retrieve floating objects forever.
If only I could have stopped her from stealing golf balls.

Great picture! I like the heat. Sam the dog loses just enough energy so that my joints can stay `located’!

Nice work on that picture! That water looks so refreshing, especially as we suffer through an early heat wave here in the Midwest. Whew …

Thanks. I had fun putting this one together. It’s 3 photos overlaid on each other. The dog had fun posing for it too.
